Where did you read that? I can understand that but part of me feel that if its idle then that would be the same or less stress then full throttle with props..
But thats just me using common sense with out any technical knowledge of the engineering behind these motors; hence why I'm here and asked.
Probably the most efficient use as well. Great suggestion!!Discharge it with simulator.you drain battery and have a little fun with it.
yep -high RPM brushless motors dont like no load conditions. If you measure the amps (or look at them via the log), you will see that under no load, it actually pulls a fair number of watts. That converts to heat and with no air movement, it is not difficult to burn the enamel off the motor windings. Running no load at high RPM for any length of time is not a great idea. Firing it up to test for <1 minute will do no harm if you are not WOT, but as soon as you start dumping heat into the motor mass - you risk Bad Things happening to the motor.I read somewhere that spinning the motors without props for extended periods degrades the motor bearings.
