Status: offline 		A brushless motor is approximately 20% more efficent than a brushed motor. So if you take two motors with the same amount of power, one is brushed and the other brushless, the brushless motor will give an approximate 20% increase in run time. However, you can go to a more powerful brushless motor and get the same run time as a less powerful brushed motor.
