Pretty impressive.



There is no such thing as a brushless DC motor. Pulsed DC , sure...


Alright...does that mean you have/have used the unit, or just
generally disapprove of it based on marketing claims? The video
highlighted some nice features.

I am not a motor guy, as recent threads may have indicated, so I have
to ask why Wiki has the first section on the differences between
brushed and brushless DC motors.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushle...electric_motor
Is this one of those semantics things, or is the article wrong? It
looks like a reasonable Wiki article and there are none of the usual
caveats at the top of the page seen on sketchy info articles.
