Drive motor options

[Ellis]

Thanks for the info Daniel! Is there really no delay between FWD/REV? I guess it's quite like having a braking function on brushed motors, but that gets bypassed (I believe) if you're ramming back and forth, and the polarity just switches. With brushless there must be an extra delay to allow the motor to stop completely before continuing in the opposite direction?

Would you say it's responsive enough for a robot which is all about drive control - i.e., a design something like Sewer Snake's, where being the dominant driving force in the arena is kinda crucial?

Could be the future of this sport!

edit: I mentioned Hot Stuff a page back, I am now fairly confident that that is running four of these: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...tor_730KV.html - spotted the red and black motor cans in one of his videos. That's a lot of power!
