Technical Tips for Optimal Performance
Maximise performance and reliability with these setup guidelines:
- Use 40A ESCs rated for high-frequency PWM (≥32 kHz) for responsive throttle control.
- 340KV variant: Performs optimally with 13–15 inch propellers on 6S LiPo for dynamic aerial work.
- Enable Active Braking (Damped Light) in ESC firmware for controlled descents.
- Mount motors with vibration-damping standoffs to protect sensitive flight sensors.
- Use 14–16 AWG silicone wires for efficient power transfer and minimal resistance.
- Conduct gradual throttle calibration tests to monitor temperature and current draw before full deployment.
Safety & Maintenance Tips
Ensure safe and reliable operation by following these care guidelines:
- Always balance propellers before flight to prevent vibration and bearing wear.
- Do not exceed rated current, thrust, or voltage limits to avoid overheating.
- Maintain adequate cooling airflow around the motor during prolonged operation.
- Inspect and clean bearings periodically with non-corrosive lubricants.
- Keep motor temperature below 80°C during continuous operation.
- Store motors in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use.
