Thats kinda what I thought, I'm actually designing something where I want to take advantage of that resistance, so I got a cheap 90vdc brushed perm mag motor to play with and it spun freely. However if I tied the leads together it cogged as you describe. As could be expected the cogging...
Hi all
I have limited experience with DC motors, but from what little experience I have some have been nearly impossible to turn the output shaft by hand, while some turned no problem just like an AC motor. Which DC motors have this resistance and which ones don't?
