1.6 to 2.5-inch micro FPV motor

GEPRC GR1105

A 5.9 g 1105 for 1.6 to 2.5-inch micro quads; on GEPRC’s 12 V bench the 5000KV pulls 120 g at full throttle on a KingKong 65 mm prop and the 6000KV 150 g.

  • 1.6 to 2.5-inch micro quads
  • 2S–4S (5000KV) or 2S–3S (6000KV)
  • 1.6 to 2.5-inch props
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 1105 motor drawn from GEPRC’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are GEPRC’s bench figures for the KingKong 65 mm prop at 12 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 40% throttle.

What it pulls

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

05010015040%60%80%100%gthrottle120 gKingKong 65 mm113 gDALRC Q2035C101 gEMAX 2035

At 60% with the KingKong 65 mm: 53 g of thrust, 1.8 A, 21 W, 2.53 g per watt.

On your quad

0.7 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 480 g with the KingKong 65 mm at 12 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 212 g, 0.3 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 you get

  • 150 g on 3S

    The 6000KV pulled 150 g at full throttle on a KingKong 65 mm prop at 12 V, drawing 5.17 A.

  • N52H magnets

    GEPRC uses N52H magnets, which it says resist high temperatures and stay in place.

  • NSK bearings

    Japanese NSK bearings, which GEPRC says keep the motor running smoothly.

  • 9 × 9 mm base

    Four M2 holes on a 9 mm circle, on a base GEPRC calls lightweight and says helps heat dissipation.

What to pair it with

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

ESC
GEPRC gives no ESC rating. Its tables peak at 4.88 A (5000KV) and 6.75 A (6000KV), both on the DALRC Q2035C at 12 V. (GEPRC load table, GEPRC load table)
Props
1.6 to 2.5-inch. GEPRC tested both KVs on an EMAX 2035, a DALRC Q2035C and a KingKong 65 mm; the 65 mm prop pulled the most at full throttle (120 g and 150 g) on less current than the 2-inch props. (GEPRC version image, GEPRC load table, GEPRC load table)
Battery
2S–4S for the 5000KV, 2S–3S for the 6000KV. (GEPRC version image)
Frame

Bench data

Redrawn from GEPRC’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 5000KV 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 nominal14.874,0007,400 Hz44,400
4S full16.884,0008,400 Hz50,400
6S nominal22.2111,00011,100 Hz66,600
6S full25.2126,00012,600 Hz75,600

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 GEPRC’s published sizes: the 11 × 5 mm stator, 14.2 mm bell, 12.7 mm height, 1.5 mm shaft and 9 mm mounting circle. Anything GEPRC 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.
