2–3-inch cinewhoop and toothpick motor
Axisflying C134
A 6000KV micro motor for 2–3-inch cinewhoops and toothpicks on 3S–4S: 7.6 g with wire, and 95 g at full throttle on a 3028-3 at about 12 V.

The spin is an illustration: the model turns at 1/600 of the no-load speed, and it is a generic 1304 motor drawn from Axisflying’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are Axisflying’s bench figures for the 3028-3 prop at 12.01 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 30% throttle.

What it pulls
Axisflying’s own bench test, one line per prop. Drag across the chart to move the throttle; the model above follows.
At 60% with the 3028-3: 43 g of thrust, 5.8 A, 69 W, 0.62 g per watt.
On your quad
0.6 : 1
Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 380 g with the 3028-3 at 12.01 V.
At 60% throttle they pull 172 g, 0.3 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 $12.99
Hollow, spoked shell
Axisflying says the hollow shell saves weight while keeping impact resistance, and the many spokes on the top add durability.

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:
- Bell. A hollow shell: black sides, and a red top whose windows are framed in light blue. (Axisflying product page, Axisflying product photo)
- Shaft. 1.5 mm, standing 3 mm above the bell; the top has four M2 holes on a 5 mm circle round it. (Axisflying drawing)
- Bearings. NMB, made in Japan. (Axisflying feature image)
- Leads. 26 AWG black silicone wire, 105 mm, tinned at the ends. (Axisflying drawing)
How fast it spins
KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 6000KV 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.
| Battery | Volts | No-load rpm (KV × V) | Electrical frequency | ESC steps per second |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4S nominal | 14.8 | 88,800 | 10,360 Hz | 62,160 |
| 4S full | 16.8 | 100,800 | 11,760 Hz | 70,560 |
| 6S nominal | 22.2 | 133,200 | 15,540 Hz | 93,240 |
| 6S full | 25.2 | 151,200 | 17,640 Hz | 105,840 |
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 1304 stator, 16.5 mm bell, 11.7 mm height, 1.5 mm shaft, 9 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.
