  • I bet I can say: "Reverse these two wires." in less than 4 minutes ;)

  • @IRisingFuryI sure you can, but would be extremely vague and unhelpful :)

  • Anybody gripping about how long it took to say reverse the 2 wires, please remember that there are a bunch of people out there just getting into the hobby who are very inexperienced and simply just don't know. So telling them the reasons for doing things helps make them less ignorant. This video is tailored to a wide audience some of which are ignorant. Just remember every single one of us was a newbie at one time. Peace ;-)

see all

  • A great, high quality demonstration. Thanks Nitro Planes.

  • What size is that prop?

  • really helpful vid to noobs like me, if I ever did have a problem with the motor spinning the wrong way, I would have tried the first two methods you mentioned. anybody complaining that this vid is too long, please realize the advice will help newcomers from making costly mistakes.

  • Good tip for new comers to brushless motors like myself.  @mikebuck5089 your added detail is nice to read for info junkies like myself.

  • good tip

  • in all honesty, this is a great video for people new to the hobby, but please, don't don't dooooon't say that there is a +, -, and signal wires going to the motor. because its a three phase motor, they all provide power, and they all provide signal, although its not the type of signal you normally think off. its synchronous AC current, and the frequency dictates speed. so no signal wire :P

  • This video was very helpful to me. Building a 450 Heli and the esc had 3 white wires. LOL... Thanks so much for the useful info...

  • @just4playin1

    Have to Agree with you totally, we are not all know it all's. Well done Antonio on your how too video's.

  • @IRisingFuryI i agree I'm sorry nitroplanes...

  • You should do a video on how 3 phase motors work. Pretty interesting stuff for those who are old brushed motor fans. The science of this hobby is just as cool as the aircraft we fly.
