SunnySky V4010 High-Efficiency Brushless Motor — The Ideal Choice for UAV & Multirotor Applications
In the fast-evolving world of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drone components must offer not only power, but efficiency, reliability and weight savings. The SunnySky V4010 High-Efficiency Brushless Motor is designed precisely with those demands in mind. Whether you are building a professional multirotor inspection platform, an agricultural spray drone, or a fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, this motor offers an excellent balance of performance, efficiency and value.
Key Features and Specifications
- Motor model: V4010 / KV375
- Stator-rotor configuration: 18 N / 24 P (18 stator slots, 24 magnetic poles)
- Internal resistance (phase to phase): 100 mΩ
- Motor length: 26.5 mm
- Motor weight (wire included): 115 g
- No-load current: 0.5 A
- Maximum continuous power: 725 W
- Maximum continuous current (30s rating): 29 A
- Recommended ESC: 50 A
- Recommended propeller sizes: EOLO 12×5, 13×5, 15.5, or 16×6
These specifications make the V4010 series a high-efficiency brushless motor perfectly suited for drones requiring medium-to-high thrust with compact size and low weight.
Why This Motor Stands Out
Efficiency and High Power
At a 725 W continuous power rating, the V4010 offers a strong power envelope for many multirotor or fixed-wing UAV platforms. The low internal resistance (100 mΩ) reduces losses, improving efficiency and thermal stability - essential for long flights or heavy payloads.
Compact Size, Lightweight Design
Weighing only 115 g with a 26.5 mm length, the V4010 keeps UAV builds light and efficient. This improves maneuverability, battery life, and payload performance - crucial for inspection, mapping, and agricultural UAVs.
Versatile Propeller Compatibility
Supporting propellers up to 16×6, the motor allows broad flexibility for thrust tuning. Builders can optimize between thrust and endurance according to their mission profile.
Reliable Brand and Supply Chain
SunnySky is a trusted name in the brushless motor industry. Sold through UAVMODEL, it ensures genuine parts, reliable shipping, and excellent support for UAV builders worldwide.
Applications & Use-Cases
- Professional multirotor drones: Ideal for inspection, surveying, or cinematography applications needing high torque and steady hovering.
- Agricultural spraying drones: Excellent for 10-20 L payload drones requiring stable, efficient propulsion.
- Fixed-wing UAVs: Efficient operation when matched with suitable propellers and ESC configurations.
- RC multirotor and hobby builds: Perfect for advanced hobbyists upgrading to professional-grade motors.
Performance Tuning and Installation Tips
- Use a high-quality 50 A ESC or higher for best results.
- Select propellers in the recommended size range and balance them carefully.
- Ensure proper ventilation for cooling during continuous operation.
- Keep wire lengths short and solder joints strong to minimize power losses.
- Match the battery voltage to your system’s current and power requirements.
- Test motor temperature under load to prevent overheating.
