What to pair it with

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

ESC

BrotherHobby lists a 6S 55 A ESC for the 2000KV and a 5S 55 A for the 2450KV; their full-throttle peaks were 52.9 A and 52.7 A. (BrotherHobby thrust summary, BrotherHobby 2000KV test report, BrotherHobby 2450KV test report)

Props

Both KVs were tested on an HQ 5.1 × 4.1 × 3: 2,048 g at full throttle on 24 V (2000KV) and 1,899 g on 20 V (2450KV). (BrotherHobby load tests)

Battery

6S for the 2000KV and 5S for the 2450KV in BrotherHobby’s tests; the spec list gives 5S–6S. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby 2000KV test report, BrotherHobby 2450KV test report)

Frame

Four M3 holes on a 16 mm circle (16 × 16 mm); four M3 screws and an M5 nut come in the box. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby spec and drawing, BrotherHobby load tests)

Bench data

Redrawn from BrotherHobby’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. 7075 aluminium bell cap, φ28 mm, hard anodised, with five spokes round a textured hub. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby infographic, BrotherHobby spec and drawing)
• Shaft. 5 mm with an M5 thread, standing 14 mm above the bell. The spec list calls it a hollow titanium-alloy shaft; an infographic on the same page calls it heat-treated alloy steel. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby infographic, BrotherHobby spec and drawing)
• Magnets. N52H arc magnets, 14 poles, which BrotherHobby describes as thicker magnets set at an even air gap. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby infographic)
• Stator. 23 × 6.5 mm with 12 slots, in 0.15 mm Nippon Steel silicon steel. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby 2000KV test report)
• Bearings. NMB, 9 × 4 × 4 mm. (BrotherHobby product page)
• Base. 7075 aluminium, with four M3 holes on a 16 mm circle and 20 AWG leads 160 mm long. (BrotherHobby product page, BrotherHobby spec and drawing)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 2000KV 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 BrotherHobby’s published sizes: the 23 × 6.5 mm stator, 28 mm bell, 18.9 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything BrotherHobby 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.
