Can anybody tell me whether there is any real advantage to a brushless motor rather than the older brush types?
Manufacturing cost?
reliability?
efficiency?
Thanks

Can anybody give a brief practical explanation of motor power factors / phase diagrams etc.
This is my understanding so far: for a purely inductive load the current peaks 90 degrees after the voltage peak on the sin wave and this would give a power factor of 1. The problem is that motors aren't...
