Why does brushless motor have at least 3 wires?

A brushless motor is "inside out" compared to your brushed motor. The windings are glued to the inside of the can, and the permanent magnets are bonded to the rotor. Since the wires don't move, you don't need brushes to transfer the electricity. Take a look at the commutator on the brushed motor. It's cut into multiple sections. Depending on which two sections are in contact with the brushes at any given time, different sections of the windings are energized, creating the magnetic fields that push and/or pull against the fixed magnets in the can. There are three wires coming from a brushless motor. Inside, all three wires are connected, and wound such that passing DC current through any two connections will create a magnetic field, making the rotor turn a partial revolution. The computerized electronic speed control "commutates" a brushless motor by switching which two wires are being energized in a sequence. Sensored and sensorless are two types of brushless motors. Sensored motors have a separate sensor, and an additional five wires, that tells the controller which direction and how fast the motor is turning. These are more complicated, more expensive, and difficult to reverse. SensorLESS motors use the fact that when a motor is coasting, it's generating electricity to see which direction and how fast the motor is turning. Knowing this information is crucial to making the motor turn in the correct direction, and knowing which two wires to pass current through at any given time to keep it turning in that direction. -not my post, taken from another site.


What is the difference between brushless RC motors and brush RC motors?

Brushless are 10x more powerful than brushed and use 3 wires instead of 2. And most brushless motors are outrunners, meaning the spinning part is outside not inside.

Can you use a brushless electronic speed controller with a brushed motor?

Generally, no. But there are some designs that permit this. It is a selling point that a single electronic speed control (ESC) can be used with either type of motor, so there are some out there (like the GTB racing ESC). Check which unit you have and then review the manufacturer's support data for that unit. If a unit is not specified as being for either brushed or brushless motors, it probably isn't.
