Motor Type Survey: Brushed or Brushless

[DrDiff952]

OK. New question...

Does your rig run a Brushed motor? Brush less motor?

 

[Kelly H]

I'm sure I'm the minority, but I'm fairly new to RC, I have brushed, running a 21T double with a BRXL ESC

Both ...brushed in the scx10 35t probably will stay that way..and about to go brushless in the wraith. .im hoping the brushless gives good drag brake and low speeds ..will see

I've had much better luck with brushless.
Every Brushed motor I've had had melted out.
Still have the first brushless motor I bought and it works great.

FYI, the motor is a 18.5turn Novak Crawler and I'm using a Mamba Max Pro ESC.

I ran brushed up till the 4Pole motors came out, they are hard to beat... except price.
Now I run a Pro4 3300 and 4000 on 3s with a MMP esc.

I did keep both of my old brushed motors though:
Holmes Hobbies 14t Puller on 6s.

Best brushed motor for crawlers... ever.

Brushless duratraxx element by castle 3900kv on 2s is plenty fast for me

 

[KRAWL]

Tekin Pro4,3300kv, brushless with MMP.

 

[rcmedic]

Tekin sc4x 7.5turn

 

[65BAJA]

Brushless on both the Wraith and the Dingo. ROC 412's in both. 2300 on 3s in the Wraith, 1800 on 3s in the Dingo. I'm thinking real hard about 4s though.:twisted:

 

[OSRC]

Brushless on 2 wraiths, SCX10, and a CR01 ......Castle 4 pole, Tekin ROC, Novak Timbuk2, and Holmes revolver respectively.

Brushed on my CC01's, another CR01, Hilift, XR, RF. All various winds of Integy lathes except the RF which has a 27t silvercan. Good motors.

Sensored BL is starting to win me over.

 

[jezzami101]

brushless in my wraith but brushed in my trail finder 2

 

[Devil Inc]

Brushless (ROC412 3100)in my rig, brushed (35t) in my daughter's for now. May get a cheap brushless setup for her soon, she wants to play in the water/mud like her dad.

 

[Tater0108]

Brushless Tekin Pro4 3300 with a MMP on 2 and 3s

 

[champ198]

brushed on mine too
just burnt up the no name and going to put my Holmes hobbies 55t handwound in this weekend and see how it does with it
would like to have one of the pro4 3300 motors but just don't have the cashola right now
