Overview

The Hobbywing Skywalker 2316 SL Motor is a fixed-wing RC airplane motor designed for 3-4S LiPo setups, with KV options of 980KV / 1250KV / 1400KV. The Skywalker 2300 series (2312 / 2316 / 2320) is presented as a newly designed fixed-wing motor range with increased peak power capability, and supports propeller fitment to improve torque output.

Key Features

  • 2300 series output claim: maximum output power is approximately 10% higher compared with competing motors of the same specification (as stated on product graphics).
  • S.V.C Technology: “Significantly decrease rotor dynamic balance to minimize motor vibration and enhance operational smoothness.”
  • Dynamic balance + precision build: production and assembly dynamic balance technology, premium bearings, and CNC machining are described to reduce rotor dynamic balance and motor vibration for quieter operation.
  • Heat dissipation structure: large hollow design combined with the self-dissipating structure of the top cover to enhance heat dissipation and prolong motor lifespan.
  • Multi anti-loosening rotor design: copper pad and retainer spring on the rotor shaft core, plus an added sleeve to prevent rotor loosening and improve reliability.
  • Materials (as stated): JNEH1200 silicon steel sheet (0.2mm thick) for lower iron loss; N48 strong magnetic arc magnetic steel design for maximum torque output; 180 high temperature resistant enameled wire; silicone wire outlet for easier routing vs traditional straight outlet silicone wire.
  • ESC pairing shown: “Best match with HOBBYWING Skywalker ESC” with 50A / 40A ESC shown on product graphics (selection depends on setup).
