• About 2.4 kg on 6S

  At full throttle on 24 V it pulled 2449 gf at 52.4 A on a T-Hobby C7.5x4.6, 2321 gf on an HQ 7040 and 2302 gf on a Gemfan 7035.

• Linear throttle

  T-Motor says the power curve is smooth and linear and the throttle responds faster, with better efficiency and heat handling for long training and racing.

• ESC settings given

  T-Motor recommends AM32 V2.19 or later with startup power 100%, timing 22.5, PWM 24–48 kHz and motor KV set to 1460, and warns that wrong settings may cause desyncs.

What to pair it with

Our reading of T-Motor’s numbers, so your build matches what the motor was tested with.

ESC

Peak current is 53 A for 1 s. T-Motor recommends its F55A PROII 8S 4-in-1 (T-Hobby's text names the PROIII), set as above on AM32. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page, T-Hobby product page)

Props

T-Motor recommends a 7040. At full throttle on 24 V it pulled 2321 gf on an HQ 7040 and 2449 gf on a T-Hobby C7.5x4.6. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page)

Battery

6S–8S; T-Motor's recommended setup uses 6S. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page)

Frame

7-inch X4 quads, recommended within 2 kg take-off weight and no more than 4 kg. Four M3 holes on a 19 mm circle. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page, T-Motor drawing)

Bench data

Redrawn from T-Motor’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:

• Bell. 33.4 mm across, black, with a grey top of six spokes that fork towards the rim, their cut edges silver. (T-Motor drawing, Ligpower (T-Motor) product page)
• Shaft. 5 mm with an M5 prop thread, standing 14.5 mm above the bell. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page, T-Motor drawing)
• Magnets and bearings. Nickel-plated arc magnets; 694ZZ bearings; balanced to within 5 mg. (Ligpower (T-Motor) product page)
• Base. Grey, 3.2 mm thick, with four M3 holes on a 19 mm circle; 18 AWG PTFE leads, 150 mm long. (T-Motor drawing, Ligpower (T-Motor) product page)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 1300KV 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 T-Motor’s published sizes: the 28 × 8 mm stator, 33.4 mm bell, 21.45 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 19 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything T-Motor 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.
