Scorpion A2-6518-180kv (40cc / 5500w / 14s)

- Overview
- Technical specifications
The Scorpion A2 - Series line of motors was designed to be the most optimal and premier choice of motor for your freestyle or UAV airplane. We have achieved incredible performance through incredible efficiency. By optimizing the magnets in the rotor, and using the best quality 0.2mm thickness silicon steel stator sheets, and high temp enamel coated copper wire windings rated above 200C+, the performance and efficiency results are unlike anything we have seen before! Combined with a robust design which has been tested extensively by our world class team pilots for longevity and reliability, we feel this motor checks and exceeds all measurable categories!
The A2-6518-180kv was designed specifically for airplanes requiring a 40cc equivalent gas engine on 14s LIPO, or other airframes requiring up to 5500w of power.
Or can use 12s lipo with larger prop for high thrust / lower power applications.
Recommended Prop Selection :
For 14s - 21x10 Carbon / 22x10 Carbon
For 12s - 23x10 / 24x10 Carbon
Recommended ESC : Tribunus III 14-120A ESC SBEC
