EDF64 with ADH300 Motor Assembled 252W(4300kv)

It's a copy of the GWS 64mm unit

30 amp each.. minimum, although 40a would be safer.

have used the Hobbyking SS Series 25-30A ESC with the stock motors on the gws 262 no problems for over 2 years

Motor isn't the problem. Fit a GWS Impeller and the Motor (once rewound back to life) will do better than it did with the 8 blade impellor.

Cheers, I have burnt two of these 4300kv ADH300 motors running 4S the last one took a 50amp ESC along out with it, put one of the $10 cheapo turnigy P2627L 4200kv. Had a few runs and seems to be holding up, Now running 70amp ESC also. No Amp tests done yet. Last review I did on this was in the AUS f18 64mm EDF listing. Might change blades and see how I go? As is I get 105kph.

I would tend to say no. I have one of these and with a 2200mAh 3S LiPo I get 32-34 amps at full throttle. Two of them would most likly blow your 60A ESC.

I bought one last year and put it in Flying Shark EDF and it burned up in one flight. Melted the motor wires all together. I used recommended battery and ESC too.

did you use it on a 4s or 3s mate

 lilwildrabbit 19 points

no will not work like that will burn out motors

I tried the same thing with a couple of 70mm EDFs ad an HK 200A ESC (lot's of headroom, eh?). One of the two motors burned out. I believe the root cause was that the feedback to the ESC (subtle but important) was confused given that there were two motors and they were not in sync (really can't expect them to be). Hence, I believe you have to have one ESC per motor to ensure proper timing and control.

I had same problem exactly with that combo melting down immediately. I went with at 4800kv motor and 4 blade fan to power my Blue Angels F18.

its supposed to pull 16amp on a 4S pack so should be fine for a 30Amp pack

 Jase73 282 points

a higher C rating is always better as you never know what you want to use it on next

I am using it with a 25c (2200mA) battery and 25Amp esc. Esc get warm but not more than that. Battery stays cold. Great and powerful EDF. The only flaw I see is that the case is a little bit too thin. So don´t pressure it and you´ll be fine.

 Theunsie 132 points

on flyjet with this EDF its a rocket. Battery 40c 2200mah gets warm and about 7min flight time dashing around. Fun fun fun upgraded now to a 2218 4300kv turnigy EDF motor with this fan, love my flyjet.

This EDF weights 57g including the short wires it came with.

yes sound like you got a faulty product complian to HK customer services :D:D you might get a replacement

CR pls

 RGS2010 230 points

Fat chance...for the price I'm willing to eat it. I've known too many people hassling with sending stuff back and taking so long that it's not worth it. I buy from HK because most stuff is fine but when something is not, I'm willing to take the loss. Thanks anyway.

I got 2 of them, and they have done all sorts of R & D, including VTOL and even as a forced induction for a Vesper Scooter! They have had all sorts of dust and foreign objects through them, and I even accidently glued the fan to the housing once and turned it on, and they both still work 100pcnt

 Theunsie 132 points

Lol mate I would really want to see pictures of your Vespa mod. Did it work or did it induce to much air?

 Robain 56 points

was a bit weak on the induction... but the idea is there... Maybe a bigger EDF...

 k.smith459 52 points

well it'll be a weeny bit over a 1:1 thrust ratio if i were you use a 60A ESC get more power and some overhead :D

CR pls

 Ek-trician 307 points

This fan works best if you use a 4S 30-40C LIPO. A good 40A ESC and balance the impeller. You can get 725 peak watts, 685 continuas. It will pull 32-38A. The thrust depends on the thrust tube in the plane, but it's close to 800gs. Beware that the 3 fins that hold the motor mount are very fragile and crack easy. So don't push or pull on the motor or impeller too hard. I prefer the housing with 4 larger fins.

Diameter of a shaft of the engine ADH300 - 3м*м* !

 KaosKane 1428 points

this product is of ***r quality the 1 i got touched the side and the wires are so thin i wouldnt put 10a at 7.2v let alone 50a at 14v the shroud and fan are in the bin and the motor in my spartes box :}

 DevilsFork 15 points

Ys this product will work, in other words it will fit. But the quality is VERY VERY VEREY ***R!So i would not reccomend this product.I am reccomending:

HKEDF64 EDF Ducted Fan Unit 5Blade 2.5inch 64mm, along with:

HK90132 HK2627 EDF Outrunner 4300kv for 64mm

THE PRODUCTS I HAVE RECCOMENDED HAS ALOT OF POWER AND WORK PERFECT!

 KaosKane 1428 points

thanks dfork my jettiger will fly (and crash) again lol *}

 KaosKane 1428 points

if u get a good 1 u may be ok but dfork s suggestions are good 1's

I put this motor in my L39 but overheated and burnt out on third flight. I used a 30ESC and 3s 2200MA battery on full throttle. Might have been better to use a bigger ESC. Draws more power than my original inn runner motor.

 siskojuice 197 points

Hi david i also used this setup in my L-39 using a 4s 2200mah 30c batterie with a red brick 50amp esc it burnt out on take off, as the specs are 3-4s batterie pretty ****ola,as the rated 16 amp must be for 3s only as it drew 47amps on 4s thats cheep stuff no good i would only use a2200mah 3s for this or downgrade the edf to 4 fins or less.

 __bare 709 points

3900 kv on mine.
Dunno Where? the 4300 kv originates from

 Beaufighter 1808 points

First of all, all of the motors here are brushless unless clearly stated brushed in descr1ption. Second, it has one green, one red and one yellow wire.

super!, thanks for the help,

Two of these will give a GWS f-15 plenty of thrust on a 3s lipo.
