24gm 3000kv OMG brushless motor
24gm 3000kv OMG brushless motor
The 3000KV motor is physically the same size as the 1300 kv and1700 kv Blue Wonders.
but...
When I first saw a friend use this motor, he was flying a 21" Mini Swift flying wing (which weighs only about 4.5oz without the battery (picture below). He was flying it around the field at about 1/4 throttle and I thought he was using a regular "Blue Wonder" - but when he gave it full throttle, the instant acceleration and speed made me involuntarily gasp out loud and say "Oh My God". Vertical and out of sight in seconds! So.... we call this motor the OMG.
Its significantly faster than our 1700kv "Blue Monster" brushless motor and draws more amps - and requires a smaller propeller. For best performance use with a lightweight model. The motor can produce over 1 pound of thrust with a 3S battery at 19 amps. I am using a 4.7x4.25 APC on my own Swift, pictured here.
Use this motor with lightweight models that can handle high speed. I'm using a 15-amp ESC but this motor can draw up to 22 amps. Due to the high current draw its very easy to ruin a battery (or ESC) if you're not careful! I have done it! Your Lipo battery needs to have a high C rating, like 50 or 100.
The motor is supplied with the aluminum motor mount and 2mm connectors. NOTE: the motor is all silver now. You'll need an ESC, a suitable prop, and a propsaver or prop adapter (not included, but available separately), and a firewall. For best results we strongly recommend using a removeable "threadlocker" compound on the tiny grub screws that hold the motor to the mount. Safety is paramount!
