6040 FW Motor

The 6040 FW is a fixed-wing UAV motor with a 160 KV motor velocity constant, engineered for 12S LiPo power systems operating across a 44–50 V range. The 865 g motor pairs with 28- to 30-inch propellers and uses a 24-slot stator, 28-pole magnetic arrangement, and triple-bearing construction. Continuous operating figures reach 52 A and 2,391 W for 180 seconds, while the motor provides a rated power density of 2.76 W/g.

With a 30 × 10.5-inch propeller, the 6040 FW produces up to 18.6 kg of thrust, reaching 18,641 g at 4,809 RPM in the supplied test configuration. At that operating point, electrical power reaches 4,989 W, with 6.85 N·m of torque. The combination of a 160 KV winding, M10 LH propeller interface, and compact 80 mm-diameter housing supports integration into fixed-wing uncrewed aircraft requiring high-thrust electric propulsion.
