Maytech Brushless 8085

Nearly all motors used in Robot Combat are DC Brushed or DC Brushless motors. Historically, brushed motors have dominated the sport due to their availability and robust electronic speed controllers to drive them. In recent years brushless motors have become more popular as they are typically more efficient and less susceptible to heat related failures. There are tradeoffs between the two motor types so do a little research to determine which is most suitable for you.
