Product overview

The T-MOTOR VL6011 KV180 VTOL drone motor provides propulsion for light-lift VTOL UAV platforms, including lightweight industrial drones, mapping missions and short-endurance aerial applications. Optimized for 12S power systems, it is suitable for quadrotor UAV platforms with a 15–18kg MTOW on 12S systems. Its 360° electronic propeller locking system works with compatible ESCs during cruise flight to reduce aerodynamic drag and improve flight efficiency. Integrated centrifugal cooling improves airflow and reduces temperature rise during sustained operation.

The motor combines 180°C magnets, 220°C copper wire and a 150°C stator coating for stable operation under continuous load. Its ≤10mg dynamic balance standard and imported 696 bearings support smooth rotation with low vibration. An IPX5 protection rating provides resistance against rain, snow and humidity for outdoor operation. The T-MOTOR VL6011 KV180 carries a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase, with valid proof of purchase required.
