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 2306.5 motor drawn from Foxeer’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are Foxeer’s bench figures for the DAL F6 prop at 22.2 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 50% throttle.

Foxeer tested it at 22.2 V.

On your quad

11.4 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 7,440 g with the DAL F6 at 22.2 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 3,952 g, 6.1 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.

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

ESC
At full throttle on seven of Foxeer's eight bench props, the 1850KV drew 33.8–40.5 A and the 2020KV 37–44.5 A at 22.2 V, and the 2550KV 38.9–45.2 A at 14.8 V. On the eighth, the DAL F6, all three drew 47.5–52.1 A. A 45 A ESC covers each of them on the seven; the F6 wants 55 A. (Foxeer 1850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2020KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2550KV spec sheet)
Props
Foxeer tested all three KVs on eight Dalprop props. The most pull came on the DAL F6 and then the T5046C: 1,860 g and 1,785 g for the 1850KV, 2,041 g and 1,958 g for the 2020KV, 1,576 g and 1,460 g for the 2550KV. (Foxeer 1850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2020KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2550KV spec sheet)
Battery
4S–6S for the 1850KV and 2020KV, both tested at 22.2 V; 3S–4S for the 2550KV, tested at 14.8 V. (Foxeer 1850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2020KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2550KV spec sheet)
Frame
Four M3 holes on a 16 × 16 mm pattern. (Foxeer 1850KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2020KV spec sheet, Foxeer 2550KV 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:

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1850KV 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 nominal14.827,3803,194 Hz19,166
4S full16.831,0803,626 Hz21,756
6S nominal22.241,0704,792 Hz28,749
6S full25.246,6205,439 Hz32,634

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 Foxeer’s published sizes: the 23 × 6.5 mm stator, 28.99 mm bell, 17.9 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 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.
