7-inch long-range and cinelifter motor
iFlight XING-E 2809
The 2809 of iFlight's XING-E series: 800KV or 1250KV for 6S, 60.4 g with wires (1250KV), a 5 mm steel shaft and a 19 × 19 mm mount.
- 7-inch long range and cinelifters
- 6S
The spin is an illustration: the model turns at 1/600 of the no-load speed, and it is a generic 2809 motor drawn from iFlight’s published sizes, not its exact design. No-load speed is KV × 22.2 V, a nominal pack for this version. iFlight publishes no bench data for it.
- Weight
- 60.4 g
- with wires; 61 g for 800KV

What to pair it with
Our reading of iFlight’s numbers, so your build matches what the motor was tested with.
- ESC
- iFlight gives a peak of 49.23 A on 24 V for the 1250KV and 25.63 A for the 800KV, so a 50 A ESC covers either. Those figures come from bench tables iFlight also prints for its XING2 2809, not from a test of this motor alone. (iFlight product page, iFlight 1250KV test report, iFlight XING2 2809 1250KV test report)
- Battery
- 6S; iFlight gives 24 V as the input for both KVs. (iFlight product page)
- Frame
- Four M3 holes on a 19 mm circle (19 × 19). Four M3 × 11 screws and an M5 flange nut come in the box. (iFlight product page, iFlight 1250KV test report)

Inside the motor
A brushless outrunner: the coils stand still in the middle and the magnets spin around them. From the top down:
- Bell. Segmented, in iFlight's words, φ33.2 mm, with ten windows in the top, wide and narrow in turn. (iFlight product page, iFlight 1250KV test report)
- Shaft. 5 mm steel, protruding 15.5 mm above the bell, with 9 mm of thread for the M5 flange nut. (iFlight product page, iFlight 1250KV test report)
- Magnets. Curved N52H magnets, 14 poles; iFlight calls them high-temperature. (iFlight product page)
- Stator. 28 × 9 mm with 12 teeth, wound with single-strand copper; 18 AWG leads, 260 mm long. (iFlight product page)
- Bearings. 11 × 5 × 5 mm; iFlight doesn't name the maker. (iFlight product page)
- Base. 3.5 mm thick, with four M3 holes on a 19 mm circle. (iFlight 1250KV test report)
How fast it spins
KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1250KV 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.
| Battery | Volts | No-load rpm (KV × V) | Electrical frequency | ESC steps per second |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4S nominal | 14.8 | 18,500 | 2,158 Hz | 12,950 |
| 4S full | 16.8 | 21,000 | 2,450 Hz | 14,700 |
| 6S nominal | 22.2 | 27,750 | 3,238 Hz | 19,425 |
| 6S full | 25.2 | 31,500 | 3,675 Hz | 22,050 |
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 iFlight’s published sizes: the 28 × 9 mm stator, 33.2 mm bell, 23.8 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 19 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything iFlight 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.
