Brushless Motors For Tt01?

[dannyfiveforty 0]

Ok, am in the process of upgrading the spurs and bearings in my tt01 chassis, however, I also want to upgrade the motor...

I have been looking at brushless ones and want to know what turn motor is safe to go for... I have also noticed some have three wires coming from them, what is the third for?

I know this probably sounds silly, but am still very new to this!

Thanks guys, Dan

I believe it is because brushless motors have the electromagnets on the outside of the motor (instead of on the rotor) - the three wires allow the magnets to be pulsed in turn (3 magnets means that the rotor will always be pushed in one direction or the other).
