HGLRC SPECTER 2806.5

A 51.9 g 2806.5 for 7-inch long range and X8 cinelifters: on HGLRC’s 24 V bench the 1350KV pulled up to 2,573 g on a DAL7056×3, drawing 33.7 A.

  • 7-inch long range
  • 7-inch X8 cinelifters
  • 4S–6S, 6 to 7-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 2806.5 motor drawn from HGLRC’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are HGLRC’s bench figures for the DAL7056*3 prop at 24 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 50% 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 DAL7056*3: 1,294 g of thrust, 12.4 A, 298 W, 5.21 g per watt.

On your quad

15.8 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 10,292 g with the DAL7056*3 at 24 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 5,175 g, 8.0 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 $29.99

  • 2,573 g on 6S

    The 1350KV pulled 2,573 g at full throttle on a DAL7056×3 at 24 V, drawing 33.7 A.

  • 260° winding

    HGLRC rates the copper winding for 260° and says it keeps the motor stable in continuous high-throttle flight.

What to pair it with

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

ESC
HGLRC asks for an ESC over 45 A and rates the motor at 40 A for 5 s. Its tables peak at 36.3 A (GF7042, 24 V), where the motor reached 85 °C, which HGLRC marks as hot. (HGLRC product page, HGLRC spec sheet and table)
Props
6 to 7-inch. HGLRC tested on a GF6042, GF7042, GF6042×3, GF7040×3 and DAL7056×3; at 24 V the DAL7056×3 pulled most (2,573 g) and the GF6042 gave the most thrust per watt. (HGLRC product page, HGLRC spec sheet and table)
Battery
4S–6S. HGLRC’s tables are at 21 V and 24 V. (HGLRC product page, HGLRC spec sheet and table)
Frame
Four M3 holes on a 19 × 19 mm pattern; M3×8 mm screws and an M5 nut come in the box. (HGLRC product page, 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 1350KV 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 nominal14.819,9802,331 Hz13,986
4S full16.822,6802,646 Hz15,876
6S nominal22.229,9703,497 Hz20,979
6S full25.234,0203,969 Hz23,814

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 28 × 6.5 mm stator, 34.53 mm bell, 19.4 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.
