Simple Powerful Brushless DC Electric Motor

This is a simple brushless DC motor I made using the following parts. WARNING: if you build one of these do not run at excessively high speeds as this will generate internal forces greater than the JB Kwik Weld can withstand. Use your own judgement and be careful! This video is for educational purposes only. I claim no responsibility for any personal injury arising from the construction and use of such a motor.

Rotor:

1 x Canning Jar Ring

3 x 1/4" x 1 1/2" Bolts

3 x 1/4" Nuts

1 x Skate Bearing

8 x Neodymium Magnets (arranged NSNS...)

JB Kwik Weld

Stator:

6 x 1/4" Bolts

1 x 5/16" x 6" Carriage Bolt

1 x 5/16' Nut

2 x 5/16" Locking Nuts

15 m 26 AWG Winding wire (about 50ft)

Electrical Tape (to cover bolts before winding coils)

Hot glue to secure stator poles

Piece of pine board

I'm using a Hobbywing ESC with a custom power supply to run the motor. As you can see from the materials list, there are 8 magnetic poles in a NSNS configuration and 6 stator poles in a Y winding configuration.

Thanks for watching! I hope you find this knowledge useful!
