5-inch FPV freestyle motor

Axisflying BlackBird V4 2307

A 5-inch freestyle motor co-branded with BlackBird, on a 2307.3 stator: 34.74 g, and 1856 g of thrust at full throttle on a Gemfan 51466 V2 on Axisflying's 6S bench (1960KV).

Drawing the 3D model…

The spin is an illustration: the model turns at 1/600 of the no-load speed, and it is a generic 2307.3 motor drawn from Axisflying’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are Axisflying’s bench figures for the GF 51466 V2 prop at 23.98 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 30% throttle.

On your quad

11.4 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 7,424 g with the GF 51466 V2 at 23.98 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 3,610 g, 5.6 times the quad’s weight.

All-up weight is the quad ready to fly, with its battery and camera. The thrust is the maker’s static bench figure; in the air it is lower.

What you get for $27.90

  • Bigger stator

    Axisflying grew the stator from 2207.3 to 2307.3 for this version, for more stability and power.

  • Shielded bearings

    Axisflying's Bearing Shield Technology seats the bearings behind an IP53 dust and water seal, which it says keeps them smooth for longer.

  • Two editions

    Mind Reader (1960KV) for smooth, precise flying; Menace (2060KV), which Axisflying says keeps the top-end power of a 2125KV with better reliability.

Bench data

Redrawn from Axisflying’s test reports. Thrust is static pull on a bench, more than you get in flight. Power is volts × amps; efficiency is thrust divided by power.

Inside the motor

A brushless outrunner: the coils stand still in the middle and the magnets spin around them. From the top down:

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1960KV version reaches about these speeds; a prop loads the motor and brings it down, typically to around 70–75% of these figures at full throttle.

BatteryVoltsNo-load rpm (KV × V)Electrical frequencyESC steps per second
4S nominal14.829,0083,384 Hz20,306
4S full16.832,9283,842 Hz23,050
6S nominal22.243,5125,076 Hz30,458
6S full25.249,3925,762 Hz34,574

A 14-pole rotor has 7 pole pairs, so every turn of the shaft is 7 electrical cycles, and a six-step ESC switches the phases 42 times per turn.

About the 3D model

A generic outrunner drawn from Axisflying’s published sizes: the 23 × 7.3 mm stator, 27.8 mm bell, 19.4 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything Axisflying doesn’t publish is typical for a motor this size, and the bell’s spoked top, the base and the inside are a generic design, not this motor’s. The colours are read off the maker’s product photos. There are no logos or markings: it is our drawing, not the maker’s.
