What it pulls

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

What you get for $9.90

• Thrust data for every KV

  MEPS publishes 10–100% throttle tables: 1605 g at 40 A on 25.2 V (1950KV, SZ5145), 1611 g (2050KV) and 1338 g on 16 V (2550KV).

• N52H magnets, aluminium bell

  MEPS lists N52H magnets, a titanium alloy shaft and an aluminium bell.

• Even throttle steps

  MEPS says each 10% of throttle adds about 150 g from 20% to 50%, and about 200 g from 50% to 90% (1950KV, SZ5145).

What to pair it with

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

ESC

MEPS recommends a 35–60 A BLHeli_32 or AM32 ESC. Its peak currents are 40 A (1950KV), 42.3 A (2050KV) and 40.8 A (2550KV), so a 45 A or larger 4-in-1 covers every version. (MEPS product page, MEPS spec table)

Props

MEPS tested its SZ5145 and SZ4942 three-blade props; the SZ5145 pulls 139 g more at full throttle on the 1950KV. (MEPS data test)

Battery

6S for 1950KV and 2050KV, 4S for 2550KV. (MEPS spec table)

Frame

Four M3 screws on a 16 mm circle (the 16 × 16 pattern of 5-inch frames). (MEPS size chart)

Bench data

Redrawn from MEPS’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:

• Shaft. 5 mm, M5 × 0.8 thread 7 mm long, protrudes 12.8 mm above the bell (MEPS's page calls it a titanium alloy shaft). (MEPS size chart)
• Bell. aluminium. (MEPS product page)
• Magnets. N52H. (MEPS product page)
• Stator. The coils are wound on a stack of thin steel laminations: 23 × 6 mm (2306). (MEPS product page)
• Base. 4 × M3 holes on a 16 mm circle. (MEPS size chart)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1950KV 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.

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 MEPS’s published sizes: the 23 × 6 mm stator, 29.52 mm bell, 17.4 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything MEPS 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.
