Re: Why Hasn't first gone Brushless?

While we're on the topic of allowable actuators, I would really like if we were allowed to use electric solenoid actuators. There are so many applications (dog-style shifters, brakes, clutches, latches, etc.) where I'd love to be able to eschew a full-size motor or piston, and where a servo just doesn't cut it.
