Foxeer Datura 1404

What it pulls

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

What you get

• About 420 g of pull on 4S

  At full throttle at 14.8 V the 3850KV pulled 423 g on a DAL T3028 (15.3 A) and 411 g on a GF 3028×3 (13.3 A) on Foxeer's bench.

What to pair it with

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

ESC

Foxeer's max currents are 15.3 A for the 3850KV (DAL T3028 at 14.8 V) and 14.8 A for the 4533KV (DAL T3028 at 11.1 V), the highest draws on its bench. A 20 A ESC covers both. (Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 4533KV spec sheet)

Props

Foxeer tested both KVs on three 3-inch props (DAL T3018, DAL T3028, GF 3028×3) and a 4-inch two-blade, the GF4×2×2. The 3850KV pulled the most on the DAL T3028 at 14.8 V (423 g); the 4533KV on the DAL T3028 at 11.1 V (350 g). (Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 4533KV spec sheet)

Battery

3S–4S for the 3850KV, tested at 11.1 V and 14.8 V; 2S–3S for the 4533KV, tested at 7.4 V and 11.1 V. (Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 4533KV spec sheet)

Frame

Four M2 holes on a 9 × 9 mm pattern. (Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 4533KV spec sheet)

Bench data

Redrawn from Foxeer’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:

• Shaft. 1.5 mm where the prop goes, 2 mm inside the motor. (Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 4533KV spec sheet)
• Damping. Foxeer fits an aluminium sheet and a rubber ring, which it says absorb shocks. (Foxeer feature image 2)
• Stator. 9N12P, 14 × 4 mm, with a single-wrap winding of single-crystal oxygen-free copper in 260 °C wire. (Foxeer feature image, Foxeer 3850KV spec sheet)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 3850KV 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 12-pole rotor has 6 pole pairs, so every turn of the shaft is 6 electrical cycles, and a six-step ESC switches the phases 36 times per turn.

About the 3D model

A generic outrunner drawn from Foxeer’s published sizes: the 14 × 4 mm stator, 19.2 mm bell, 13.1 mm height, 1.5 mm shaft, 9 mm mounting circle and 9 teeth and 12 magnets. Anything Foxeer 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.
