3- to 3.6-inch FPV motor

SpeedyBee 1507

A 4S motor for 3 to 3.6-inch quads at 3600KV: 15.2 g with leads, props bolted to the top, and up to 707 g of thrust per motor on SpeedyBee's own bench (GF 3630-3 prop).

  • 3 to 3.6-inch quads such as SpeedyBee's Master 3X
  • 4S
  • Bolt-on props like the GF 3630-3 and HQ 3.5 × 3 × 3 SpeedyBee tested
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 1507 motor drawn from SpeedyBee’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are SpeedyBee’s bench figures for the GF 3630-3 prop at 16.05 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 30% throttle.

What it pulls

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

At 60% with the GF 3630-3: 354 g of thrust, 7.6 A, 121 W, 2.92 g per watt.

On your quad

4.3 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 2,826 g with the GF 3630-3 at 16.05 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 1,418 g, 2.2 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 $14.99

  • 707 g of thrust on 4S

    On SpeedyBee's bench it pulled 706.6 g at full throttle on a GF 3630-3, drawing 23.73 A (374 W) at 15.76 V.

  • Bolt-on props

    The shaft stands 2 mm above the bell, with four M2 holes on a 5 mm circle round it for props that screw on.

What to pair it with

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

ESC
SpeedyBee gives 23.73 A as the maximum current, the top of its own 4S bench (GF 3630-3); a 25 A or larger ESC covers it. (SpeedyBee specs and test data)
Props
SpeedyBee tested two props on 4S: the GF 3630-3 (706.6 g at full throttle; it logged 67.4 °C inside the motor) and the HQ 3.5 × 3 × 3 (671.5 g at 20.18 A; 46.3 °C), both at 28.9 °C ambient. (SpeedyBee specs and test data)
Battery
4S, the only voltage SpeedyBee lists. (SpeedyBee specs and test data)
Frame
Four M2 holes on a 12 mm circle. M2 screws in 6, 7 and 10 mm lengths come in the box. (SpeedyBee drawing)

Bench data

Redrawn from SpeedyBee’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 3600KV 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 nominal14.853,2806,216 Hz37,296
4S full16.860,4807,056 Hz42,336
6S nominal22.279,9209,324 Hz55,944
6S full25.290,72010,584 Hz63,504

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 SpeedyBee’s published sizes: the 15 × 7 mm stator, 19 mm bell, 15.8 mm height, 1.5 mm shaft, 12 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything SpeedyBee 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.
