5-inch FPV racing motor

Xnova Lite Speed 2207

Xnova's Lite Speed 2207 for 5-inch racing on 5–6S, 31.5 g; the 2050KV pulls 1,761 g on a Gemfan 51466 at 22.2 V in Xnova's test.

The spin is an illustration: the model turns at 1/600 of the no-load speed, and it is a generic 2207 motor drawn from Xnova’s published sizes, not its exact design. Thrust, current and power are Xnova’s bench figures for the GF51466 prop at 22.2 V, read straight across between its throttle steps. Its data starts at 30% throttle.

Max thrust: 1,761 g; GF51466 prop, 22.2 V
Weight: 31.5 g; with 16 cm wires
Peak current: 44.6 A; full throttle
Max power: 990 W; full throttle

What it pulls

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

At 60% with the GF51466: 999 g of thrust, 20.9 A, 464 W, 2.15 g per watt.

On your quad

All-up weight650 g

10.8 : 1

Thrust to weight at full throttle: four motors pull 7,044 g with the GF51466 at 22.2 V.

At 60% throttle they pull 3,996 g, 6.1 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 to pair it with

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

ESC: It draws 44.6 A at full throttle on Xnova's 22.2 V bench with a Gemfan 51466. (Xnova prop data)
Props: Xnova tested it on a Gemfan 51466. Props fit the M5 shaft. (Xnova prop data, Xnova drawing)
Battery: 5S–6S. (Xnova data list)
Frame: Four M3 screws, opposite holes 16 mm apart (the 16 × 16 pattern). (Xnova drawing)

Bench data

Redrawn from Xnova’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. Black, with two red rings round the top of the bell and a red five-spoke top with lightning-bolt shapes cut into the spokes. (Xnova drawing, Xnova product photo, Xnova top photo)
Shaft. M5 thread, 13.5 mm above the bell. (Xnova drawing)
Base. Black, with four M3 holes, opposite holes 16 mm apart. (Xnova drawing, Xnova product photo)
Leads. 16 cm. (Xnova data list)

How fast it spins

KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 2050KV 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	30,340	3,540 Hz	21,238
4S full	16.8	34,440	4,018 Hz	24,108
6S nominal	22.2	45,510	5,310 Hz	31,857
6S full	25.2	51,660	6,027 Hz	36,162

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 Xnova’s published sizes: the 22 × 7 mm stator, 27 mm bell, 18.8 mm height, 5 mm shaft and 16 mm mounting circle. Anything Xnova 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.
