Axisflying Modular AF2406

What it pulls

Axisflying’s own bench test, one line per prop. Drag across the chart to move the throttle; the model above follows.

What you get for $28.90

• Swap without soldering

  The motor body and its base are separate parts: loosen the mounting screws, change the motor and tighten them again. Axisflying puts the swap at 15 seconds.

• Plated contacts

  Current passes through gold-plated upper and lower PCBs and nickel-plated copper shims, pressed together by a steel wave spring Axisflying rates for over 200 °C; the PCB is rated for 60 A.

• Tested for swapping

  Axisflying says the design passed 500 rounds of assembly and disassembly and 100 water-immersion tests, plus long heavy-load and static runs.

• Bench numbers

  On a 51466 V2 at about 23.5 V: 1826 g at 40.95 A (1860KV) and 1929 g at 47.44 A (2080KV), with 44 °C and 40 °C measured inside the motor.

What to pair it with

Our reading of Axisflying’s numbers, so your build matches what the motor was tested with.

ESC

Full-throttle currents on Axisflying's bench are 40.95 A (1860KV) and 47.44 A (2080KV) on a 51466 V2; the base's PCB is rated for 60 A. (Axisflying test data, Axisflying base specs)

Props

Axisflying tested both KVs on 51466 V2 5-inch props on 6S. (Axisflying test data)

Battery

4S–6S for both KVs; the bench data is on 6S. (Axisflying spec tables, Axisflying test data)

Frame

Four M3 screws on a 16 mm circle, which Axisflying says fits most 5-inch frames; the screws pass through the 3 mm base cap, and M3×11 screws come in the box. (Axisflying drawing, Axisflying release article, Axisflying product list)

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. Black, with a dark bronze spoked top and a red ring round its edge. (Axisflying product photo)
• Base. A separate base holds the contacts: upper and lower PCBs, gold-plated, with nickel-plated copper shims and a wave spring. An optional 7075 aluminium cap, 23.2 × 16.8 × 3 mm and 2.1 g, closes it. (Axisflying base specs, Axisflying structure image)
• Shaft. 5 mm with an M5×0.8 thread, 9 mm of it usable, standing 13.4 mm above the bell. (Axisflying drawing)
• Stator. 24 × 6 mm, 12 slots, with 14 magnet poles in the bell. (Axisflying product page, Axisflying spec tables)
• Leads. 20 AWG silicone wire, 150 mm. (Axisflying spec tables)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1860KV 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.

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 24 × 6 mm stator, 29.5 mm bell, 19.55 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.
