1/10 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor, 1406-3800Kv: 4mm Bullet
For more than a decade Castle has been providing award winningbrushless sensorless motors to R/C enthusiasts worldwide.
Introduction
In response to overwhelming requests by customers, Castle Creations has brought technological advancements together that will deliver unprecedented performance in their new SENSORED motor Line. Their latest additions are the 1406 series in a "SLATE" color, in 1900KV, 2280KV, 2850KV and 3800KV. These motors are ROCK READY and have the startup on low RPMs under control. Castle now has you covered if you are looking for ultimate control out on the trails or on your Ultra 4 track days.
Features
- IMPROVED 4-POLE 12-SLOT design boasts exceptional EFFICIENCY and produces LESS HEAT.
- QUIETSENSE technology shields the sensors from magnetic field noise generated from the motor coils and keeps your motor and ESC in sync at all times.
- Use of a Flux Shield in conjunction with secondary Sense Magnets delivers even HIGHER PRECISION and MORE EFFICIENT startups.
- Castle's OPTIMIZED design eliminates the need for mechanical timing adjustments. The sensor alignment method delivers uniform timing and torque in both directions, automatically.
- REBUILDABLE design allows users to replace front end bell/bearing assembly or rotor/shaft assembly.
- ROAR standard sensor port and labeled connections. Updated modern and sleek design; looks as cool as it performs.
Why Sensored?
Drivers in all applications demand clean starts when coming off theline. Crawler fans require high-precision low speed control and torquefor climbing, racers need precision and predictability, and dragstersdon’t have a millisecond to spare. To achieve all of these performancedemands and more, we have integrated rotor position sensor technologywith our improved high power and high efficiency motor design. Throughthe use of our sensors, the position of the rotor is always known by theESC. This eliminates the possibility of encountering cogging orinconsistency during startup. Users will experience PRECISE throttle control and BUTTERY SMOOTH starts plus the RAW POWER and LONGER RUN TIMES that our highly efficient motors produce.
What Makes a Great Motor?
- You can push it harder
- You can run it longer
- It stays cool under extreme loads
- Ability to withstand the harsh demands of any RC application
- Long-life, high-quality components
- Proven manufacturing techniques
Efficiency Is Key
The higher the efficiency of a motor the more power it can produce without overheating, which allows you to safely run higher gear ratios. The higher the efficiency of a motor, the less power it takes to produce the same output power, which allows you to run longer on a single charge. The higher the efficiency of the motor, the less energy it turns into heat; keeping it cool under extreme loads. Efficiency equals performance.
Reliability Can't Be Ignored
Without a robust and reliable design, efficiency will only go so far. RC enthusiasts love pushing their equipment to the edge. The Castle engineers know this and spared no expense when developing a design that could hold up to the harsh conditions that the RC community will throwat it. Oversized NMB bearings and vibration dampening system ensure the longest bearing life possible. High-strength, high-temperature grade neodymium sintered magnets combined with a high-strength Kevlar wrap ensures the integrity of the rotor is not compromised during harsh running conditions. Castle's proprietary winding techniques allow them to produce a stator assembly that is the lowest possible resistance, resulting in a cooler running motor. A cooler motor has a longerlifetime. Construction of the motor required careful component selection; each verified through internal testing to ensure the highest efficiency possible. In the end, the result is a motor with unmatched quality, performance, and reliability.
Keeping It Cool
Immense care is taken by Castle's US design team during every step of the development process. While using the highest quality components isimportant, design is equally important. Thier experienced, in-house engineering team, located in Olathe, Kansas, has spent countless hours simulating and developing the most efficient design. Development includes magnetic simulations, custom winding techniques, and rigorous,real-world testing of the final product.
