Would you know anything about using Bifilar in motors by any chance? BrianG
Yeah, the twisties would be a bit difficult to negotiate, but if the winding was done by machine, it could be done I think.

Yes, I know what Bifilar means, but in which way? There are several ways they can be connected; Straight parallel connected pair, series connected pair but parallel wound, parallel but opposing directions, etc?

I've also wondered at what inductance these motors have. If the inductive reactance value is too high, compared to the pure resistive, it may be "difficult" for an ESC to drive. Has anyone heard of a capacitive correcting netork that would help bring the voltage and current in phase, which would make the ESCs job easier?
