QPT 4008 380KV Brushless Motor

The QPT 4008 380KV is a pancake-style brushless motor designed for heavy-lift multirotors, long-endurance aerial photography platforms, and large-scale long-range drones. Its flat 40mm by 8mm stator profile delivers substantial torque at low RPMs, ensuring highly efficient operation and extended flight times rather than raw top speed.

Key features

• Flat stator design maximises low-end torque for swinging large-diameter propellers.
• Highly efficient 380KV rating tuned for long-endurance flight envelopes.
• Ideal for agricultural multirotors, mapping rigs, and cinematic heavy-lifters.
• Runs efficiently on 4S to 6S power systems.

Specifications

• Stator size: 4008
• KV rating: 380 KV
• Recommended battery: 4-6S LiPo
• Recommended propeller: 13 to 15 inches

When building an aerial mapping hexacopter or a long-range quadcopter focused on maximum flight time, this motor provides the necessary lift without drawing excessive current. Pair it with high-capacity 6S battery packs and lightweight carbon fibre propellers for optimal endurance.
