Default Keyence Rapida Pro

Hey,

Ive got a Keyence Rapida Pro and in the instruction manual it says i need to put capacitors on the motor between the + and - terminal, between the + and the motor case, and between the - and the motor case.......why do i need to do this and is it necessary? it also says "make sure to connect the included noise-suppression capacitor to the motor, If not you may damage the ESC"............has anyone ever run it without them on and what has happened?

Thanks

The capacitors your are describing arent power caps there interference stopping caps. I wouldnt think running without them would damage the esc but you may get interference. What motor is it? most have them built in nowadays.
