Hola, Le recomiendo usar 4S tal como recomienda las especificaciones, recuerda que cambiar una variable modifica todo el diseñ*o, osea debes calcular el ESC y el propeler, puedes exceder la capacidad de potencia y quemar el controlador. saludos
hola una consulta compre este motor y lo puse en un yack 54 carbon z con una helice 11*8 y una bateria de 4 celdas 2800mhs
y se pasa de vueltas lo quiero para hacer 3d alguien me aconseje y me enseñ*e que helice le tengo que poner gracias agradesco una ayuda
hola, puedes utilizar una hé*lice con una relació*n menor osea 11x6 por ejemplo. existen hé*lices tipo slow fly que permiten mantener la potencia pero a una velocidad menor. para realizar cá*lculos debes tener toda la informació*n, peso del avió*n, tipo de motor, ESC, hé*lice a utilizar, tipo de baterí*a entre otros, con eso puedes realizar un cá*lculo.. esta es mi configuració*n: Yak54 50inch, bateria 2650 35, ESC 50C, tengo dos helices una de 12x6 y otra de 12 x 4 evidentemente la segunda al mismo nú*mero de vueltas 12 avance apenas 4 pulgadas osea má*s lento.. espero le sirva. saludos
If this is the same motor an an EFlight 25 why does Eflight suggest using a 14X8 Folder with in in their Mystique 2.9 e-sailplane?
That would seem to far exceed this motor.
How did you arrive at this? Both this motor & the EFlight motor have a KV of 870, but the spec's indicate a max current of 32A.
Using a 14 X 8 would result in a much higher current.
The specs of this motor are identical to the power 25 made by eflite, also the casings and bearing sizes are identical which leads me to believe turnigy and eflite have the same manufacturer. As far as using a 14x8.... It exceeds the prop range of both motors.
Hi have an E-Flite Super Cub 25E. They recommend their own Power 25 870kv motor with an APC 13x6.5E prop and 4S lipo. I beleived that this G25 870kv would be a direct replacement for that motor. Looking at this discussion thread people are talking about 10-11 props. So am I mistaken? Is this motor an equivalent to the Power 25 or not?
I think it is the same exact motor. For example, I went to a local hobby store and bought an e-flite park 300. On hobbyking there is a turnigy park 300. The turngy g25 is suitable for 25e airplanes. So is the Power 25. So go out and buy! :)
i would think it would fly it just fine..i have this on an aeronca champ witch is a high wing witch has alot of drag, weighs about 3.5 lbs.. so i would think a 48 inch extra 300 would have all kinds of power !

This will work with an Addiction X by Precision Aerobatics right (rather that Thrust 40)? Price seems very reasonable. Thinking of running it on a 4s 2200. Thanks.
This motor will easily work with the Addiction X. However I would never use a 4s battery in the Addiction X. Even a 3s 2650 battery changes the flying characteristics big time. I ONLY use 3s 2200 and would only recommend that. I wouldn't use any prop but the Vox T40 designed especially for the Add X. Otherwise there's no point in owning one if you aren't going to set it up as it should be.
Jaime,
I fly an Electra with a super tiger .10 and it is crazy, I was thinking of buying this to upgrade the Electra, did you do anything to re-enforce the main spars?
usually you reinforce if your putting a glow on a electric plane.. so really if its a glow plane then you wouldn't have to reinforce for electric motor. Glow planes are a little sturdier do to vibration! hope this helps! gimmie thumbs up please!
I'm planning on putting this motor in the hobbyking Decathlon 48.9 and run it on 4S. Do u guys think an 11x7 apc prop will be a good match in this plane? Ill put it on the watt meter when it's setup....I was thinking this might be a good place to start.
Thx
It calculates that on a 4s battery and an 11x7 prop it will be drawing 55amps (800 watts) which is a bit high for this motor as max continuous is only 32amps.If you use a 10x6 then this will draw 37amps and give 540w,or a 10x5 will draw 32amps and give 467w.
Gary thanks for the information, perhaps hobby king should consider changing the description:
Required*
50A ESC
3S~4S Li-Po / 10 ~ 14-cell Ni-MH/Ni-Cd
11x8 ~ 14x7 prop
its a bit confusing
A 13.5 x 7 will be to much for this motor on a 3cell pack,it will be drawing 59amps and the motors max is 32amps.With a 12 x 6 it will still be drawing 38amps but this will be ok for bursts of approx 10-15secs and this will give you approx 420w of power.
Why do the H-K spec's say a 14 X 7 prop can be used. That will put the current even higher than the 13.5 X 7
The 12 X 6 you indicate seems far more reasonable.
yes is too big, the only problem is that the battery will be less minutes flying, but if you do not have another one you can use it, instead of 15 min. fly will be around 11 minutes flying
Hallo Im thinking of installing this one in my Edge 540 superlite (flying wieght 1,200 gr)any comments would be ussfall ie good, bad , or down right silly it all helps PB
I think this motor will be good for your Edge. I have one on my overweighted (around 1kg) Super Zoom XL. With only 3S lipo and 14x7E prop it have very good vertical capability.
The motor will only rev to its rated kv. A tiny prop on that motor will still not rev past it's kv, so no power! That motor likes at least an 11x6. Too much prop and you'll overload the motor and cook it! The motor's specs usually list a starting point for props at given battery volts. This is why we buy Watt meters, they will tell you all this info so you get the right prop for best power for your motor and don't run it over its Amp/Watt rating. You need one!
hi, could someone please tell me how to connect the three wires? i randomly plugged them into the battery and the motor worked. after trying to use the motor again, it burnt out. thanks!
first make sure you match the right colours. red/red, blk/blk.etc. also it is very important to use the right wire connectors with heat shrink. i'm faily new with this and i used this on my apprentice and it works great. also make sure that you have the right esc. also very important.
How can the G25 be rated (advertised) as a 470W motor and the G15 (smaller) be rated at 500W? Or better question: How can we get HK to publish useful specifications?
I bought one of these a few months back thinking that I might put it in my parkzone t28. Did a quick bench test with no prop on a 3s and 40amp esc. Ran nice. Put everythig together and put it in the plane, plugged it into the esc and I got were some beeps and a jittery prop. I am not sure what the problem but I assume the windings are touching or something. ***mer. Not worth sending back to china
nope...i run that in a pt20.....voltage test all points, swap out esc, and what worked for me...make sure esc dont have a safe start....if so...fallow directions......plug esc in with tx in full stick and trow trim all the way up...wait for cell beeps then lower trim and stix
That always happens when one of the 3 wires feeding the motor is disconnected. Look for a problem in all 3 motor wires. Also try another ESC to be sure. Don't run the motor without a load, it can burn the windings, seriously! Some motors are not effected, and some are. Not worth the gamble.
Happy flying!
Have a look at the screws you used to mount the motor, they may be too long and you have shorted or broken some windings. I know of someone that did this on two sets of quad motors in a row so be careful.
this engine can handle pulling this aircraft (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8591__De
cathlon_EP_48_9_inch_ARF.html)
with an esc of 40A with a battery of 3S Turnigy 2200?
Yes this has plenty of power. If its the 48" Decathon, the motor is too heavy and eat over powered. I think the Turnigy 3530 1000kv, or 3542 1000kv. The later pulls my 3.5lb Pilatus PC-6 Porter of the ground in less than 10 feet with a 11x5.5 prop. And is less than 1/2 the weight.
I use this engine for this plane (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8591__De cathlon_EP_48_9_inch_ARF.html) with an esc of 40A with a battery of 3S Turnigy 2200
This is a bit much power for an electric 48" Decathalon. It's designed to replace a .25 glow so it's built like a tank and heavy. I would suggest the Turnigy 3642 with an11x6, or 3648 with 12x6. Unless you need nose weight, these will both yank a 3.5lb plane vertacle!
Happy flying!
Well ive just purchased this and installed it into the plane i plan to use, though the motor seems to be drawing too many amps. For instance on an MAS 11x4 it was drawing a little over 70 amps with 700 watts!?! I also did try an APC 12x6 and needless to say it was even higher. Im using the Turnigy trust 70amps esc with a 30c 2200 3cell battery. So I dont quite understand how people are using 4 cell batteries...which was my original intention. Would a higher c-rated battery help? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thrust is dependent upon what prop you are trying to run on it. in general the larger the diameter of the prop the higher the thrust for the same pitch. That is until the motor runs up to its current limit.
well i was wondering if anyone has any "real data" testing the engine with different prop sizes and diameter. eg. if ur running a 12*4 or 12*5 or .... how much thrust and amp consumption temp
I bought an E-Flight Apprentice last year. This has been a great trainer for me, with many flights. Unfortunately, after several rough landings and a bad nose over, the motor casing cracked, leaving the motor and plane useless. I had bought the G25 last year, and I finally used it to replace the 15 BL Outrunner Motor 720Kv, in the Apprentice. The motor was a straight, easy, swap out, without even having to drill new mounting holes! I also changed the speed control over to the 60Amp Plush ESC, for a perfect motor/ESC match. I will have follow up flight results soon.
Wow, tested it today with trust 55amp esc. with a 9x6 prop. with 2 cell it did not even start the motor but with 3 cell a whole lot of power, next i will try 4 cell once i get it.
Attached to the back of the engine mount was broken. Are there any items in stock spare parts? What is the product number for this part? An urgent need. Thank you.
