2 HACKED!: Using an HDD Motor as a Rotary Encoder?!
GreatScott's video is the standard pointer for reusing an old hard drive motor as a rotary encoder with an Arduino, explaining the basic operating principle.
3 (#0033) 4-Wire Computer Fan Tutorial
Linked as an example when people struggle to run four-wire PC fans, showing how the PWM speed wire and tachometer output are connected.
4 Brushless DC Motor, How it works ?
A simple, older visual explainer of how BLDC motors work, and how the coil wiring and drive pattern produce steady torque.
5 Brushless Motor - How they work BLDC ESC PWM
Recommended as a helpful overview of how brushless motors and speed controllers fit together, and used as a reference for motor construction.
6 Make your own Sensored ESC || Electric Bike Conversion (Part 1)
GreatScott's walkthrough of building a sensored brushless motor controller is offered as a sound primer, though one viewer notes the result itself is modest.
7 Building a Lego-powered Submarine 4.0 - automatic depth control
Cited as the original Brick Experiment Channel upload of a home-made Lego submarine, including its magnet-coupled drive through a sealed wall.
8 How Brushless Motor and ESC Work and How To Control them using Arduino
Explains how brushless motors and ESCs work, then drives an ESC from an Arduino; cited as a wiring and control reference for drone-style motor projects.
