Hi Friends! Time for some bench testing!
You might remember this motor from the FT speed challenge episode (http://www.flitetest.com/articles/viewer-request-speed-challenge) where David pushes his Spitfire over 100mph. I ordered this motor the moment I saw this episode and have been trying to push it to the limits ever since. What you’re about to see is not a normal test. I’m not interested in finding the longevity sweet spot with some stale 3w per gram formula.
I have one goal in mind, how far can I push this motor?
TEST SETUP
MOTOR
NTM 3536 1800kv
BATTERY
Turnigy nano-tech 1550mah 6S 65c
Graphene 2200mAh 4S 65C
RESULTS
| 6S | 4S | |
| VOLTS | 3.58 | 3.85 |
| WATTS | 1471 | 1244 |
| AMPS | 67 | 79 |
| RPM | 31500 | 21100 |
| MPH | 186 | 140 |
| TEMP | 101 | 106 |
This motor is a beast! I run it on my 800mm planes with the 4s 7x7 setup and get over 120mph. I was really blown away by the level of performance the 6s setup produced. I can’t wait to try this on my upcoming nnHotliner design.
Do you have a motor you’d like to see me test? Leave a comment and let me know! Until then, I’ll see you next time!
