Product description
This brushless motor is suitable for small flying drones and multicopters for hobby use. The 3100 KV rating means that the motor reaches approximately 3100 revolutions per volt without a load; with a 3S LiPo (11.1 V), this corresponds to a maximum of approximately 34,400 revolutions per minute. The CCW version (counterclockwise) is typically intended for two of the four motors in a quadcopter; the other two are CW motors (clockwise).
The operating voltage of 7.4 to 11.1 V depends on the available battery chemistry. 2S LiPo batteries (7.4 V) allow for lighter constructions, while 3S LiPo (11.1 V) provide more power. With a maximum current draw of 15 A per motor, four motors can require up to 60 A of total current, which requires appropriately rated batteries and a powerful speed controller. The weight of approximately 13 g per motor is relevant for small drones.
Typical applications include self-built small quadcopters, 5-inch racing drones, or lightweight photography platforms. For stable flight, four identical motors must always be used and correctly balanced: two in CCW and two in CW versions. A single motor has no practical use without the other three.
Operation requires one electronic speed controller (ESC) per motor, which takes over motor control from a flight controller. The flight controller also requires a suitable battery, propellers of the appropriate size and rotation direction, and a calibrated remote control or autonomous control electronics. The motor cannot be operated without these components.
Safety information
This motor is intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes. LiPo batteries must be handled carefully and charged with a suitable charger; overcharging or short circuits can cause fires. Spinning propellers pose a risk of injury; disconnect the power supply before carrying out any work on the motor or electronics.
