Hobbywing XRotor X9 G2L Propulsion System for 16L Agriculture Drone, 12S-14S, 24 kg Thrust, IPX6, PWM+CAN

Overview

The Hobbywing XRotor X9 G2L is a propulsion system for 16L agriculture drones, designed for agricultural plant protection applications. It supports a rated single-axis load of 7-12 kg (sea level) with maximum thrust up to 24 kg (sea level), and fits D40 mm / 40 mm carbon fiber tube arms for small to medium-sized platforms.

With IPX6 ingress protection and a FOC-based ESC (optimized for PMSM), the system is intended for heavy-load operation in harsh outdoor environments. It supports dual throttle redundancy via PWM (analog) and CAN (digital), and provides telemetry and compatibility through HWCAN and DroneCAN (Cyphal) communication.

Key Features

• New-generation integrated drone propulsion system; seamless upgrade from previous version X9 and X9 Plus
• Rated thrust per axis: 7-12 kg; maximum thrust reaches: 24 kg
• Compared with the previous version X9, the recommended takeoff weight has increased by 1 kg
• Extended flight time when used with the MFP 36x11 propeller; efficiency increased by 4% in the same thrust range compared to the previous version X9
• Total weight listed: 1532 g (also specified as 1532 +/-10 g including cable and 36x11 propellers); performance comparable to the X9 Plus while weighing 230 g less
• Suitable for various 16L agricultural drones; Class IV drones
• Dual throttle redundancy control: PWM analog signal + CAN bus digital signal
• Safety protections listed: power on, self check, voltage/current/stall
• Built-in failure storage and log; optimized black box storage logic:
  • Fault storage: precisely records fault data within milliseconds for easier fault analysis and ESC maintenance information logging
  • Log black box: records ESC operating data in real time; default recording duration is 1 hour, up to 24 hours
• Multiple parameter adjustment modes:
  • Parameter adjustment via remote controller: adjust navigation light colors and motor rotation directions without the need of a DataLinkBox
  • Parameter adjustment via Bluetooth in the mobile app: DataLinkBox G3 paired with HOBBYWING DataLink V3 app (Android and iOS; Huawei HarmonyOS currently not supported); quickly configure 90% of ESC parameters outdoors via Bluetooth
  • Parameter adjustment via PC software: PC-side DataLink host software with DataLinkBox supports all open parameter settings (including advanced parameters settings) on the ESC
• New "dual-loop" control architecture:
  • Flatland mode: stable motor rotation speed output and precise speed control within the operating voltage range
  • Highland mode: automatically adjusts motor rotation speeds within a certain range as altitude increases (customizable on request)
• Brand-new structure for optimal heat dissipation: rectangular vent design with a larger diameter improves heat dissipation efficiency while preventing impurities from entering the motor

Details

XRotor X9 G2L mounting dimensions and labeled JR-3P/5-pin cable wiring help plan fitment and connections on an agriculture drone build.

The XRotor X9 G2L propeller layout provides a 927.1 mm blade span with clearly defined hub hole sizes to match compatible motor mounts.

The XRotor X9 G2L integrated propulsion unit combines a large propeller with a compact motor module for streamlined drone installation.

XRotor X9 G2L provides 7–12 kg rated thrust per axis with a stated maximum thrust of 24 kg.

XRotor X9 G2L propulsion pairs with an MFP 36x11 propeller and is positioned for 16L agricultural drone setups.

Parameter adjustment via the remote controller helps set navigation light colors and motor rotation direction without needing a DataLinkBox.

Hobbywing ESC parameters can be adjusted via Bluetooth using the DataLinkBox G3 with the DataLink V3 mobile app.

Hobbywing DataLink PC software support lets you connect over CAN to configure and manage ESC parameters from a computer.

Optimized black box fault storage records ESC data in milliseconds and supports real-time logging for up to 24 hours.

The dual-loop control architecture offers Flatland Mode for stable speed output and Highland Mode to adjust motor speeds for higher-altitude operation.

The XRotor X9 G2L motor uses a rectangular vent structure to improve heat dissipation while helping keep impurities out.

The XRotor X9 G2L propulsion system supports dual throttle inputs using PWM (analog) and CAN (digital) and works with DroneCAN/HWCAN protocols.

The XRotor X9 G2L motor features an IPX6 ingress-protection rating and high-temperature resistant enamel wire rated up to 200°C.

The XRotor X9 G2L propulsion system lists built-in self-check and running protections, including over/undervoltage warnings, short-circuit and disconnection faults, and over-temperature alerts.
