Check out the NEO Motor Data Sheet for additional specifications and charted motor curves. Also, please pay special attention to the NEO Motor Locked Rotor Testing and please make sure you have read and understand how to set the SPARK MAX Smart Current Limit

Wiring Connections

Connecting the NEO Brushless motors is fairly straightforward, follow the guide Wiring the Spark Max with the NEO Brushless Motor and don't forget to connect your encoder 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.
