Castle 1520-1650KV V2 1/8-1/6
Our commitment to excellence drives us to refine the user experience, optimize performance, and ensure that every aspect of our products is meticulously designed to provide the utmost satisfaction. Let's face it, even the best products have room for refinement, which is why we are excited to introduce the newly redesigned 1520-1650Kv V2. The rotor and stator have been completely redesigned to improve magnetic flux. This results in higher efficiency, smoother start-up, reduced temperatures, and longer run times!
MOTOR FEATURES:
- Input Voltage range: 3s-8s LiPo
- Redesigned rotor and stator assemblies.
- Reduced magnetic cogging, producing less residual drag brake.
- Increased efficiency, resulting in lower temperatures and longer run times.
- Smoother start-up, reducing cogging or stuttering when starting from a stop.
- High-Strength Kevlar Wrap and 180C Grade Neodymium Sintered Magnets
- Oversized NMB Bearings and High-Temperature, High-Purity Copper Windings
- 10 AWG, High-Strand-Count Silicone-Insulated Wire w/6.5mm Bullet Connectors
- High-Performance 0.2mm Steel Lamination Stacked Stator
- Oversized, low-resistance, gold-plated solder tabs
- Sensor board with High Quality Temperature-Stabilized Sensors
- T6 Aluminum CNC Machines Front/Rear End bell
- Proudly Designed and Supported in Kansas, USA.
- Backed by Castle Creations' 1-YEAR WARRANTY

- Product Use Statements: Monitor motor temperatures closely; overheating a motor will cause permanent damage to the magnets. Never exceed 180° F on the the motor or ESC. Do not use mounting screws that extend more than 5mm into the front of the motor. Using too long of a screw can result in damage to the motor's winding's and will not be covered by the warranty.
- Tech Notes: The 1520-1650Kv is a water resistant design. The sensor board is coated with silicone conformal coating to protect the sensors from moisture. The sensor connections are not water resistant; water can cause signal loss which could result in loss of sensored capabilities. We recommend applying dielectric grease to the outside of the sensor wire connections after installation of the wire. Routine maintenance is recommended after running in wet conditions. Please refer to this document for running and maintaining motors in wet environments.
