More flight time per pack. More raw power for 3D stunts. Split-second response on demand. Ammo Motors’ patented windings and brushless, slotless design have the efficiency to deliver all three affordably for everything from hotliner “bullets” to high-alpha 3D aerobats.

  • Exceptionally high power-to-weight ratio! Compact 3600, 4300 and 5100 kV models add only 2 oz (57.7 g) to aircraft weight.
  • Ideal for direct-drive or gear-drive applications.
  • Made in the U.S.A. from top-quality materials. Includes: a 1-piece can machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, Neodymium rare earth magnets, shielded ABEC 3 ball bearings, stainless steel output shaft and gold-plated bullet connectors.
  • High-efficiency design produces minimal waste heat and extends motor life to the max.
  • Exceptionally reliable, virtually maintenance-free and protected by a full, 2-year limited warranty.
  • Minimizes “glitching” with extra-low RF and EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) emissions.

Windings: the Ammo Motor “edge” in efficiency and top performance!

All electric motors have windings. But the winding method in Ammo Brushless Motors is so innovative and advanced that it’s protected by two patents!

Each winding starts out as a hollow rectangle of fine copper wire…

which is folded over to form overlapping layers of wire…

and rolled into a tightly packed, full-length cylinder of pure copper that surrounds the rotor.

Compared to traditional brushed motors and low-cost brushless motors which are "slotted" in design, the "slotless" design of Ammo motors results in many performance advantages which make them the motor of choice for 3D flying.
