17gm 2000kv brushless motor

Our 17gm 2000kv brushless motor (also called the 2211) fits in the product line in between our 10gm and 24gm motors - its the motor we recommend for the "Regular Komet" kit that we sell. This motor can be used with 2S or 3S Lipo batteries and uses a 7x6 or 8x4 2-blade propeller.   Rated at 250gm thrust at 6 amps, 2mm motor shaft.

This item comes with the standard aluminum motor mount and 2mm bullet connectors. You'll need an ESC, a suitable propeller with a prop adapter or O-ring propsaver, and a plywood firewall.  These items are not included, but sold separately. (note: the blue "stick mount" in the picture isn't included.) For best results we strongly recommend using a removeable "threadlocker" compound on the tiny grub screws that hold the motor to the aluminum motor mount. You'll also need some tiny wood screws (also available separately).

As with all brushless motors, a brushless ESC is required (available separately). Current draw is around 6-7 amps. The direction of rotation can be reversed by switching any 2 of the 3 motor leads.

The "Regular Komet" can also use the 1350kv "Blue Wonder" motor with an 8x6 prop, but this is a bit heavier so it means you'll need a larger battery up front.  The model will be quite a bit faster. With the 17gm motor the "Regular Komet" is a relatively lightweight  and easy park flyer.
