10-inch FPV motor

HGLRC MY 3115

A 110 g 3115 for 10-inch quads on 6S: on HGLRC’s bench the 900KV pulled 3,770 g on a 10 × 4.5 × 3 prop at full throttle, drawing 55.84 A.

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 3115 motor drawn from HGLRC’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are HGLRC’s bench figures for the 10*4.5*3 prop at 24 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 20% throttle.

What it pulls

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

At 60% with the 10*4.5*3: 1,750 g of thrust, 16.7 A, 401 W, 0.00 g per watt.

On your quad

23.2 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 15,080 g with the 10*4.5*3 at 24 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 7,000 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 you get for $18.99

  • 3,770 g on 6S

    The 900KV pulled 3,770 g at full throttle on a 10 × 4.5 × 3 prop at 23.6 V, drawing 55.84 A (1,317.7 W) at 14,903 rpm.

  • 1,190 g at half throttle

    At 50% throttle it pulled 1,190 g for 9.72 A (233.1 W).

  • High load

    HGLRC sells it as a high-load 6S motor for 10-inch props.

What to pair it with

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

ESC
HGLRC rates it at 50 A, but its bench table reaches 55.84 A at full throttle on a 10 × 4.5 × 3 prop; an ESC rated for 60 A or more per motor covers that. (HGLRC spec image, HGLRC spec sheet and table)
Props
10-inch. HGLRC’s table is on a 10 × 4.5 × 3: 1,190 g at 50% throttle and 3,770 g at full throttle. (HGLRC product page, HGLRC spec sheet and table)
Battery
5S–6S (21–25.2 V). (HGLRC spec image)
Frame
Four M3 holes on a 19 × 19 mm pattern; M3×12 mm screws and an M5 nut come in the box. (HGLRC spec image, HGLRC spec sheet and table)

Bench data

Redrawn from HGLRC’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 HGLRC’s published sizes: the 31 × 15 mm stator, 37.5 mm bell, 29.6 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 19 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything HGLRC 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.
