whats the difference between brushed and brushless
574601
The difference is the type of motor, brushed has contacts inside that transfers current, brushless has no contacts, therefore making it more efficient, makes more power and the batteries last longer.
574602
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.

Basically brush less motors are more efficient brushes being the short coming on a brushed RC motor. brush less pretty much maintenance free

I dont know how to explain it fully but basically the brushless has less parts coming in contact in order to work where as brushed does. These brushes over time bind or loose contact making the motor stop wotking or burn up. I am a brushless fan all the way. You dont have to break them in, they handle more power and higher rpm. They are more spendy but they last longer. Id always spend the extra money to get brushless. I hope this is of help

This is two different types of motors the brushless is quit a bit faster almost to fast for some one who doesn't not have experience driving rc cars. Also, brushed is waterproof whereas brushless is not. So water puddles, snow, and rain are not good ideas for this brushless, some brushless are waterproof but this is a castle motor and is not. I have the brushed version and it is a blast and for the price difference I believe is a better deal!! I hope this helps

The difference refers to the electric motor. The brushed motor is more inexpensive but has less power and the brushless motor is more reliable and faster but does cost more. For a beginner I would recommend a brushed motor but if you are willing to pay more, the brushless is better in the long run.

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.

Brushless. However, this car is over powered and can be difficult to keep from flipping with the lipo batteries so the brushed will be perfectly fine and a ton of fun

The stainless has a shiny finish and the brushed has a brushed look. I have the brushed stainless because it doesn't show fingerprints like the stainless does but still looks great. Love my trash can by the way!

No difference....they all do the same thing I think the only difference is the brush attachments some are softer than other..this one is just right not too soft or too hard... mine works just fine I love it

There is a significant difference. Run time seems more than double. There seems to be more power. I've drilled a series of 4" deep holes in masonry with a 5/8 in bit and through 3/8" steel with a 3/8" bit. The impact driver runs a large part of a day hanging drywall or steel studs. I have both the older brushed and brushless tools. I would buy more brushless tools as they become available. As I've only used the brushless tools for a year but would assume that fewer moving parts would last longer. About the only repair to an electric motor today is brush replacement.

Brushless all they way. Change out the bearing tho the stock one go out and mess up the motor

The only difference is the brush head. You can change it with any of the other brushes. The back is a different color then the one that comes with the other brush. I have the other one my husband has this one. He uses the regular head brush on his. Hope this helps.

I believe the main difference is that the 40160 comes with two sets of brushes. One for hardwood and laminate floors, and one for tile and grout. The color of the unit is different also. Other than that, I don't think there is any difference.

HI, the torque is according the T in brushed motors; less T: less torque more speed, more T: more torque less speed. This motor is 15T is for med-speed rather torque. Regards

It is a brushed motor. Some say brushless is superior, however the ESC in this car can only run brushed motors. If you upgrade the motor you will need to swap the ESC too. Those parts could be 50% the cost of the whole car.

Yes. The brushed versions can be used on both gas, electric and induction cooktops.

No, the DCF885 and the DCD780 both have brushed motors. The DCK281D2 is the brushless version of this kit which includes the brushless DCF886 impact driver and the brushless DCD790 drill/driver.

Theoretically the brushed nickel has more pronounced streaks from the "brush finishing" and the satin is more of a matte finish, but in reality there is very little difference. The terms are used interchangeably in the industry and the finish codes are the same for both. You can always order and then return.

No you can not run the brushed motor with the velineom power system it wont work, ive asked at my hobby store....as far as a replacement they make rebuild kits for the the brushless motor :-)

check out the motors.F45/645 used brush motor -the F45/f645 used brushless motor (more efficiency,more expensive)

As far as know all electric motors have brushes. If you find what you are looking for, I would be interested also.
