Breaking in banebot motors
Hi all, as we are getting ready to start the build season i was wondering about different ways to increase speed and efficiency in the brushed drill motors. one way i have heard is from the RC car guys, running the motors for a short time in distilled water so that the brushes wear more evenly. Was wondering if anyone has tried this and what your results were. I am also looking at any ways to increase speed and efficiency.
thanks in advance.
