Product overview
The T-MOTOR TF16*8 Glider&UAV Carbon Propeller is a folding propulsion component for gliders and fixed-wing UAVs used in inspection, weather monitoring and mapping. Its polymer-and-carbon-fiber construction combines a 16inch (406.4mm) diameter with an 8inch (203.2mm) pitch; each blade weighs 13g. The blade surface carries a heat-insulating layer, while the airfoil and blade geometry use CFD optimization to support thrust and efficiency. Configuration choices cover a spinner, 16*8 blades with a spinner, and 16*8 blades; the packing list specifies one TF16*8 propeller.
For propulsion integration, the 16*8 recommendation pairs AT4120-4130 motors with an 80-100A ESC, while the separate matching guide names an AT4120 motor and AT115A ESC. Recommended thrust is 2.2–5.4kg at 5300–8000RPM, with a recommended maximum of 6.3kg at 8600RPM. Ambient temperature spans -40°C to 65°C. Cover plate screws must be secure, and the propeller must not be disassembled or subjected to applied force. Falls or equivalent impacts can cause cracks or deformation. Specified hostile chemical environments are excluded, and storage exceeding six months requires sealed preservation.
