Poles? And I Don't Mean the Kind Girls Dance On
I was looking at some of the bigger Hacker motors out of curiosity and what would be the advantage of having 10 poles instead of 8 on a motor like the A-100 and A-150?
In all honesty, I'm not really sure what poles in electric motors do and what effects they have. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushle...electric_motor
Do you mean winds/turns? For instance, a Hacker A80 is avaialble in a -8 or -10 configuration. That's the number of turns of wire around each stator pole. That's the basic RPM tuning variable of a brushless DC motor. The -8 motor is a hotter, higher RPM wind (which we use to spin a 24" prop) and the -10 is a colder, lower RPM wind (which we use to spin a 26-27" prop).

Re: Poles? And I Don't Mean the Kind Girls Dance On
All else being equal the poles simply break down the power impulses - more poles smoother delivery. A little like more cylinders without the loss of torque.
Most people feel more poles give the power a more forgiving and more available feel. |
