hmm, yes I was thinking brushed, but induction would work too. But it all comes down to if a neodymium magnet is stronger or weaker then an electromagnet of the same size. If you could get an all electriC motor to work, you wouldn't have to worry about temps as much because there are no magnets to demagnatize. You would have to worry about things melting like plastic and insulation. That means in theory if you have a very powerful esc then you could put as many volts as you want and gear as highas you want until to either reach the escs limitations or you start melting stuff...

A problem would be efficiency. It would have to be very powerful to be as efficient as two motors.

I am pretty confused about induction motors. It appears they have windings in the stator like a brushed motor, but the rotor is apparently made of "almost solid aluminum or iron". How the heck would that work?
