Title: Futaba releases brushless servo line
Post by: Admin on July 24, 2009, 07:18:27 AM

For those who don't know what brushless motors are, just think 'way better than DC motors' and 'way more expensive than DC motors'. Usually people avoid them because of cost and complicated/large controllers required, but now they are in servo form, I think I'll buy a few :D

Now I need to run some tests to see if it can outperform Hitecs coreless motor line . . .

The best servos on the market currently are the DS8717 high voltage servos  ;D
