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 3110 motor drawn from BrotherHobby’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are BrotherHobby’s bench figures for the HQ 9 × 5 × 3 prop at 25 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 30% throttle.

What it pulls

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

At 60% with the HQ 9 × 5 × 3: 1,751 g of thrust, 16.6 A, 415 W, 4.22 g per watt.

On your quad

19.7 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 12,812 g with the HQ 9 × 5 × 3 at 25 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 7,004 g, 10.8 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 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 50 A ESC for both KVs; full-throttle peaks were 47.3 A (900KV, 9-inch) and 38.7 A (730KV, 11-inch). (BrotherHobby thrust summary, BrotherHobby 730KV 10-inch test report, BrotherHobby 730KV 11-inch test report, BrotherHobby 900KV test report)
Props
BrotherHobby pairs it with 9-, 10- and 11-inch props. At full throttle the 900KV pulled 3,203 g on an HQ 9 × 5 × 3; the 730KV 3,017 g on an HQ 10 × 5 × 3 and 3,347 g on a GF 11 × 7 × 3.

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:

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 900KV 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 nominal14.813,3201,554 Hz9,324
4S full16.815,1201,764 Hz10,584
6S nominal22.219,9802,331 Hz13,986
6S full25.222,6802,646 Hz15,876

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 31 × 10 mm stator, 36.7 mm bell, 24.2 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 19 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.
