2 Make your own ESC || BLDC Motor Driver (Part 2)
The second GreatScott instalment on building a brushless motor controller, valued for explaining current chopping and the code, and for fixing faults from the earlier attempt.
3 How to rewind a BLDC Motor (as a Generator)
Cited as an example of adapting a brushless motor into a generator, with GreatScott working through rewinding and output voltage.
4 Precision motion control: ODrive Servo? Trinamic Stepper? Chinese Hybrid?
Marco Reps' video is suggested for understanding motor options and closed loop servo control, with relevance to CNC and precise positioning projects.
5 Super Capacitor Bike
Shared as an enjoyable example of a bike running on large capacitors from Tom Stanton, and once as a pointer for building a simple brushless motor.
6 Electronic Basics #18: DC & Brushless DC Motor + ESC
Offered as an introduction to brushless DC motors and how they are driven, for people curious about control or printing their own.
7 Brushless DC Speed Controller
Offered as an approachable guide to brushless motor drive circuits, including a demonstration of why smoothing capacitors stop a microcontroller resetting on noisy supplies.
