Product Description

The 5010 360KV High Torque Brushless Motor is a specialized power plant designed for heavy-lift multirotors and long-endurance aerial platforms. Featuring a high-pole count and a wide, "pancake" style stator, this motor is engineered to provide massive torque at low RPMs. The 360KV rating makes it ideal for swinging large, efficient propellers (14" to 17") on high-voltage battery setups (4S to 6S LiPo). Built with high-quality NMB ball bearings and high-temperature oxygen-free copper wire, the 5010 ensures smooth, vibration-free operation, which is critical for stable professional cinematography and agricultural spraying applications.

Key Features

High-Torque Pancake Design: The large diameter-to-height ratio (50mm x 10mm) maximizes leverage, allowing the motor to spin heavy props with precision and ease.
Low KV Efficiency: Optimized for "Slow-Fly" efficiency, significantly extending flight times compared to smaller, high-KV motors.
Premium Build Components: Utilizes high-grade magnets and precision bearings to minimize mechanical friction and electromagnetic interference.
Excellent Heat Dissipation: The open-frame design allows for maximum airflow through the stator windings, preventing thermal throttling during long missions.
Universal Mounting: Features standard M3 mounting holes compatible with most professional carbon fiber drone arms and motor mounts.

Technical Details

Idle Current: ~0.5A @ 10V.
Max Continuous Power: ~250W - 350W (Load dependent).
Recommended ESC: 30A - 40A Opto.

Prototyping and Engineering Tips from Robogears

Propeller Selection: To get the best out of this motor, use 15x5.5 or 16x5.5 Carbon Fiber Propellers. Using props smaller than 14 inches will waste the motor's torque, while props larger than 17 inches may cause the motor to exceed its thermal limits on a 6S setup.
Voltage Strategy: This motor shines on 6S (22.2V) LiPo batteries. The higher voltage allows the motor to produce high torque while keeping the current (Amps) low, which reduces the heat generated in your ESCs and wiring.
Vibration Management: CRITICAL: Because this motor spins large propellers, even a tiny imbalance in the prop can cause massive vibrations. Always use a high-quality magnetic balancer for your propellers to protect your Flight Controller's IMU from "noise."
ESC Calibration: We recommend using "Opto" ESCs (without a built-in BEC) to power these motors to keep the signal clean. Ensure your ESC's "Timing" is set to Medium or High in the firmware (BLHeli) to accommodate the high pole count (14P) of this motor.
Mounting Security: Use blue thread-locking compound (Loctite) on the motor mounting screws. The low-frequency vibrations of large-prop drones can slowly loosen screws over time, which can lead to a catastrophic "motor-out" failure in mid-air.

Package Includes

1 x 5010 360KV High Torque Brushless Motor
1 x Propeller Adapter/Mounting Hardware Set

Disclaimer: Never run this motor at full throttle without a propeller attached, as it can over-speed and damage the bearings. Ensure your ESC is rated for the total current draw of your specific motor/prop combination. Keep fingers and loose items away from large spinning propellers, as they carry enough torque to cause serious injury. Always perform a maiden flight in a clear, open area.
