Application of using High or Low Motor / ESC Timing
Most hobbyists who operate electric RC vehicles understand that motor timing can be controlled. The questions is how many actually change the timing of their setup? If you haven’t already read the article on timing, click the link to view the article. Do you have to change timing? The short answer to this question is …
Timing Explained for Brushless Motor and ESC’s (Low vs High)
Brushless motor timing is critical to its operation. Without the correct amount, a brushless motor may not operate efficiently or even at all. We will be exploring timing for brushless motors in this article. A few key focuses will be on what does brushless motor timing refer to, advantages of low and high timing, and …
Comparing Combustion Engine and Brushless Motor Performance Fundamentals
Combustion engines and brushless motors serve the same purpose in the radio controlled scene. The purpose of these two technologies is to provide the main source of mechanical power to drive our boats, planes and cars forward. In this comparison we will be looking at 4 different parameters. These parameters will include output RPM, physical …
Compare Equal Size Brushless Motors with Very Different Kv’s
Brushless motors come in many different winding choices. These winding choices are critical to the specific application that you are looking to place a motor in to. However, did you ever wonder how a brushless motor is able to perform equally in terms of power when Kv is changing? Continuous Power Output Limitation The first …
