NEO V1

NEO V1 Overview

The REV NEO Brushless Motor (REV-21-1650) is the first brushless motor designed to meet the unique demands of the FRC community. Offering an incredible power to weight ratio along with it's compact size it's designed to be a drop-in replacement for CIM-style motors as well as an easy install with mounting options.

Features

  • Drop-in replacement for CIM-style motors

  • Shielded out-runner construction

  • Front and rear ball bearings

  • High-temperature neodymium magnets

  • High-flex silicone motor wires

  • Integrated motor sensor

    • 3-phase hall sensors

    • Motor temperature sensor

Wiring Connections

Connecting the NEO V1.1 Brushless motor is fairly straightforward. Follow the guide at Wiring the Spark Max, and don't forget to connect your sensor wire; the motor will not spin without it!

CAUTION: Improperly wiring the connectors can cause severe motor damage and is not covered by the warranty. DO NOT connect the motor directly to the battery.
