Does this model have a brushed motor or a brushless motor (BLDC) ?

Hello ,This ft009 have brushed and DC motor. Ft012 has a brushless motorThank you!

Absolutely brushed. As far as I know the brushless tech has only been implemented on some of their newer drills/drivers.

Save your money to go to brushless. It just ran a little bit better than the stock brushed motor.

This is the brushed motor, it's been listed wrong. Look at the number of wires on the motor to determine if it's brushed or not. 3 wires= brushless 2 wires = brushed

A brushed motor has a set of wound coils that spin against an outer magnet and the "brushes" conduct the electricity to the coils. A brushless motor has the coils permanently mounted on the outer case and the North/South magnets are mounted on the drive shaft, thus no need for brushes since the coils are stationary. The less rotating mass on a brushless motor allows the motor to spin faster and more efficient for a set size and amperage than a brush motor.

Yes. Only the larger (and much more expensive) drill models use brushless motors.

It comes with two 40 V Lithium Ion Batteries. They are not G batteries. Don't know if the Motor is brushless. Perhaps you should consider the single blade G mower because the availability of batteries in the future might be more assured.The upside of those old batteries is that I bought a new one recently to supplement my original 2 and it was a lot cheaper. I have the non G 19 " and have been very pleased with it. No problems whatsoever over the last two years.

Brushless just refers to the motor itself not the drive of the scooter. The motor doesn't have brushes on the inside like a brushed motor would have.

No it's not brushless motor, this vehicle is a nitro truck not an electric...this requires a "nitro" fuel for it run.

They are both brushless. But the BL has 3 gears (speeds 1-3) you can change. I'm a commercial metal stud framer. And it does not have a chuck on the front of the gun like a normal cordless impact. Some times in tight spaces I stick my bit in there and it gets stuck and I have to use my channel locks or nippers to pull it out. And now that I have had it for about a year the button you have to press to switch out the shaft gets stuck or your shaft will get stuck or not go in sometimes. You have to bang it a few times to get it out or to shove it in. But the gun is good I have dropped it several times from over 20ft and nothing has happened to it. I love the gun. Has great power.

According to the Festool info it does not have a brushless motor. Having said that, I've used tools a ton and the only tools I've ever had to change brushes on are a couple of old 1970s routers I bought used. The Festool CSX is smooth as silk when running

I have both, and the brushless is more responsive, longer run time and less noisy. The brushless motor does away with the arcing that brushes have as they wear. Brush style motors require turning the brushes or replaceing them periodically to keep them in contact.

I don't remember. I only use the motor in my CNC machine. It has been a great motor though and when I finally burn it up (it runs for long periods of time-15 to 30 minutes at a time between bit changes) I will be buying another. In fact I have been thinking of getting another now to keep on hand.

It should be brushless but make sure it has a Velineon motor and you will know for sure. I believe the brushed version had a Titan motor. It is a great truck. Since it is 2WD it rocks wheelies.

If you do have a brushed motor yank it and the esc and take them to your local hobby town USA and trade them in on a brushless setup you'll be impressed at the difference

Yes it is a direct brushless motor replacement for the 12 turn brushed motor in your 2wd Slash. You will also need to replace the XL-5 ESC with the VLX-3s ESC that comes with.
