Scorpion A-7430-185kv (V2)

By Scorpion ↗

The Scorpion A-7430-185kv (V2) is a 185 RPM / Volt propulsion motor for freestyle and UAV airplanes in the 70cc-85cc gas-engine-equivalent class. It delivers 5328 Watts continuously and 7500 Watts at intermittent full throttle for 5–60 seconds, depending on use case and cooling. Integration requires direct ESC cooling airflow and precautions for long battery cables.

Product overview

The Scorpion A-7430-185kv (V2) is an electric propulsion motor for freestyle and UAV airplanes requiring a 70cc-85cc gas-engine equivalent. Its assembly has a 74.0 mm diameter, 30 mm thick stator with 24 arms and 28 magnet poles. Construction combines 0.2mm silicon steel stator sheets with single-strand enamel-coated copper windings rated above 250C+. Continuous power is 5328 Watts; the 7500 Watts peak rating applies to intermittent full throttle for 5–60 seconds, depending on use case and cooling.

Installation space must accommodate the 86.80mm x 70.4mm motor body and +20.0mm prop spacer allowance, with a 10mm external shaft. Weight is 1255.0g for the motor alone or 1351g including prop mount accessories. The capacitor board, cross mount and standoff set are optional accessories. For 12s operation, recommended propellers are 25x12E or 26x12E; the recommended controller is the Tribunus II+ 14-200A ESC SBEC. Baffles must direct cooling air to the ESC. Excessively long battery cables can damage the ESC and void the warranty.
