1S tiny whoop motor

T-Motor M1002

T-Motor's 1002 for 75 mm 1S tiny whoops: 2.4 g with leads and a plug-in JST connector; on 1S it pulls 35.4 g at full throttle on a Gemfan 35 mm three-blade.

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 1002 motor drawn from T-Motor’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are T-Motor’s bench figures for the GF2015-2 prop at 3.7 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 20% throttle.

What it pulls

T-Motor’s own bench test, one line per prop. Drag across the chart to move the throttle; the model above follows.

At 60% with the GF2015-2: 24 g of thrust, 2.1 A, 8 W, 3.01 g per watt.

On your quad

0.3 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 188 g with the GF2015-2 at 3.7 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 94 g, 0.1 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

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 5.16 A over 10 s. T-Motor recommends a 6 A 1S AIO board (its "06A AIO"). (T-Motor drawing, specs and test report, T-Motor product page)
Props
35–40 mm whoop props for 75 mm frames: 35.4 g on Gemfan's 35 mm three-blade at full throttle. On a 2-inch GF2015-2 it pulled 46.9 g at 5.2 A. (T-Motor drawing, specs and test report)
Frame
75 mm tiny whoops, per T-Motor; T-Hobby adds 2-inch racing quads. Three M1.4 holes on a 6.6 mm circle. (T-Motor product page, T-Hobby product page, T-Motor drawing, specs and test report)

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:

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 18000KV 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 nominal14.8266,40026,640 Hz159,840
4S full16.8302,40030,240 Hz181,440
6S nominal22.2399,60039,960 Hz239,760
6S full25.2453,60045,360 Hz272,160

A 12-pole rotor has 6 pole pairs, so every turn of the shaft is 6 electrical cycles, and a six-step ESC switches the phases 36 times per turn.

About the 3D model

A generic outrunner drawn from T-Motor’s published sizes: the 10 × 2 mm stator, 13.2 mm bell, 1.5 mm shaft, 6.6 mm mounting circle and 9 teeth and 12 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.
