Product overview
The HOBBYWING M8108 Light is a propulsion component for industrial multirotor UAVs. Its outer rotor construction combines a CNC-machined 7075 aluminium support with a treated seamless steel housing and a laminated silicon steel core. The integrated support and shaft reduce the number of separate parts, while three M2.5×8 fasteners and washers secure the shaft tail. For installation planning, the motor occupies a diameter of 87.1 mm and a height of 25.4 mm, with separate mounting patterns for the aircraft structure and propeller.
Electrical selection depends on the winding version: the 85KV and 100KV motors use 12S LiPo, while the 150KV motor uses 6S LiPo. Each has 100 mm, 16 AWG leads, with weight including leads ranging from 237.4g to 242.8g. Recommended integration uses MSC propellers and the XRotor Pro H60A 14S controller, with an application thrust range of 2.5~3.5kg per axis. Maximum current ratings apply in a non-enclosed environment at ambient temperatures no higher than 25°C; the motor carries an IPX5 rating.
