• High-torque Outrunner design for quick acceleration and maneuverability.

Operating principle and workmanship

The SUNNYSKY X2204 1800KV motor is a type of brushless motor with an external rotor (Outrunner). This means that the outer part of the housing with magnets rotates, onto which the propeller is directly attached. This design provides high torque at low speeds, which is ideal for sharp maneuvers and aerobatics. The absence of brushes makes the motor very efficient, reliable and durable, since friction is minimal and only the bearings are subject to wear.

The manufacturer Sunnysky uses only high-quality materials in this motor. The body is made of aluminum, which not only gives strength, but also excellent heat dissipation. The stator windings are made of copper wire, providing excellent conductivity. The rotor and shaft are made of high quality steel, which guarantees a long service life even under intense loads.

Technical characteristics and selection of propeller

A KV parameter of 1800 indicates that the motor is designed for higher speeds compared to low-speed analogues. This makes it ideal for lightweight models weighing around 150-200 grams. The motor works great with 2S and 3S lithium polymer batteries.

Based on pilots' experience, the optimal choice of propeller for this engine is a two-blade GWS 8x4.3 Slow Fly or similar. With this combination, the engine provides high thrust for performing aerobatic maneuvers on aircraft like the Yak-55 or Extra Slick. Some pilots also use it with 5x3 propellers, but be aware that the mounting holes on the motor may not fit that size. Therefore, during assembly, it is important to check the compatibility of the propeller with the motor.
