Overview
The Hobbywing XeRun 2848 Sensored Brushless Motor is designed for heavy-duty 1/14 scale applications (also listed for 1/12 scale). It is available in 2800KV / 4000KV / 4600KV options and supports mechanical endbell timing for CW or CCW rotation with an adjustable range of 20-40°.
Using a 0.1 N·m load test comparison (same specifications motors), the maximum efficiency is stated as 6% higher, with internal temperature approximately 20°C lower and external temperature 10°C lower. The motor protection level is IP5X for dust resistance in dusty track environments.
Key Features
- High power output for heavy-duty 1/14 scale applications; power output is stated as increased by 15% when compared to motors of equal size and specifications.
- High efficiency and low temperature rise (0.1 N·m load test: max efficiency 6% higher; internal temperature ~20°C lower; external temperature 10°C lower).
- IP5X protection level for dustproof performance in off-road dusty track environments.
- Mechanical endbell timing: CW/CCW rotation; adjustable between 20-40°.
- Low cogging moment for smooth and linear low-speed throttle response (stated as about 1/4 of popular brands).
- Modular design for easier disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance.
- Materials and design notes: iron core, high-precision grade bearings, high temperature resistant wire (200°C), high temperature resistant rotor (180°C), widened U-shaped gold-plated curved copper bars with increased gap for easier soldering.
