The advantage of brushless motors over brushed motors is that they do not have friction since they do not have brushes. Without brushes, the motors are more efficient and have a longer lifespan as there is no wear and tear (brushes in brushed motors wear out with use). They produce less noise, maintain their torque steady at all speeds, do not overheat, and do not require maintenance.
