Brushless Motor Controllers

Posted 8 years ago Sign in to contribute
For a brushless motor it is necessary to control it using a brushless controller. Brushless motors have three wires, they operate by switching on one coil at a time which changes the magnetic field within the motor to the next coil along, this means that magnets keep pulling towards the energised coil which makes them spin.

This is effectively what a brushed motor does, but the different coils are energised by means of the commutators rather than a separate controller.
