  • Long range and freestyle
  • 4S–6S, from 1322KV to 2522KV
  • 16 × 16 mm M3 motor mounts
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 2408.5 motor drawn from Hyperlite’s published sizes, not its exact design. No-load speed is KV × 22.2 V, a nominal pack for this version. Hyperlite publishes no bench data for it.

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 1622KV 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 nominal14.824,0062,801 Hz16,804
4S full16.827,2503,179 Hz19,075
6S nominal22.236,0084,201 Hz25,206
6S full25.240,8744,769 Hz28,612

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 Hyperlite’s published sizes: the 2408.5 stator, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything Hyperlite 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.
