Question About Motor

Post by MoMoney$$$;)0) »

Hello fellow users,
I was wondering if I could use a motor legally that has a circuit or electronic chip built into the back of it where the terminals are located? I would really like to know before I continue building with the motor? Thanks!!

no i dont think so, because electronic components you are allowed to use are limited to just a few basic ones.

Yeah no, the electronic chip in the back is most likely an encoder. Encoders are not allowed.
