Diy Brushless Spindle

[Joe]

The motor is a Thumper 5055, 10.8-29.6V, 1280 watts and 580 KV

Yes the motor does accept more voltage but the charger was the only thing that I had on hand. My Grandpa has an ex-school lab transformer that is 12v,100A which once rectified should provide more than enough power . I just need to find theright sort of low ESR caps, could you recommend any?

Do you think that if I up the current that the motor will be more powerfulor will I also need to up the voltage and use a different supply?

My spindle ESC also gets quite hot after running for more than about 15 mins as well, but nothing excessive. The spindle however gets very hot after beingrun for about 25 mins, I think that I will need to devise some sort of watercooling but I am going to try bigger and more fins and a fan first. The projec tis also my Product design coursework at collage so a big thank you for all your advice

Thank you blackburn mark for the ebay power supply I needed something like that for my audio set up and at that price you can't go wrong so I have ordered one
