I hope you guys don't mind me posting in English, my Portugese has become a bit rusty lately ;) I'll be posting several messages on the subject of do-it-yourself brushless motors and diy brushless controllers, i.e. if that's ok with the moderators?[/quote:31b24ea20c]

Has you can see my English is terrible , but we all in Brazil, if dont read English make a big effort to do it.

My part in this hobbie is sailplanes or electric sailplanes.
In www.rcgroups.com, you can do a search from [color=red:785c01d75e]Cebola[/color:785c01d75e], and see some of my models, in English ( bad )of course!.
Those same models you can see here, but in portuguese.

Be very wellcome to our small forum.

For the new e-voo members, just search for threads started by me and you'll find lots of motor building/winding information I have posted.

Motor building 101, a must read:
www.gobrushless.com/kb
-> basic overview (1-5)

Several calculators for motor building e.g. magnet coverage and distance:

Vriendelijke groeten ;) Ron
