Reduce Motor Noise - 0 views

  • This is the 3 capacitor method.  I used this one in all my RC cars and many of the RC toys that I have taken apart use this method.
  • One of the easiest and most overlooked technique that can be done to lower motor noise is the twist your motor and motor power wires.  This in affect forces the magnetic fields to cancel each other out.
  • By placing a metal shield between your motors and radio can do wonders.  Also keep in mind that some metals shield better than others.   Carbon Steel shields several hundred times better than aluminum.  Dont use this shielding as a conductor or you may compound the problem.

  • Place your high current wires away from sensitive areas and antennas.  Don't run the wire parallel with wires that are used as signaling in your micro controller.  If you must its best to have them cross at 90 degrees.

    In the past when I built a Bot I would just slap it together and hope for the best. However when I started to use RC receivers to aid in the control of my bots the results left a lot to be desired.
