1605 FPV Motors
3 motors with a 1605 stator from 3 brands, typically spinning 4in props. They weigh 12.7–13.8 g and come in 3600–3900KV windings. The name is the stator size in millimetres: a 1605 stator is 16 mm across and about 5 mm tall.
| Brand | Model | KV options | Weight | Cells |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VCI HOBBY | Spark 1605 | 3650 | 12.7 g | 3S |
| AOS RC | Supernova 1605 | 3900 | 13.3 g | 3-4S |
| Ummagawd | Aerolite 1605 | 3600, 3800 | 13.8 g | 2-4S |
1605 thrust from manufacturer bench tests
2 of these motors come with the manufacturer's own thrust test. Each row is that motor's peak-thrust point, the prop and battery it was measured with, and the efficiency at 50% throttle in the same test. Every brand runs its own bench with its own props, so compare rows that share a prop and cell count; this is not one like-for-like test.
| Motor | Max thrust | Thrust ÷ motor weight | g/W at 50% | Tested with |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AOS RC Supernova 1605 | 863 g | 64.9× | 3.12 | 3900KV, Gemfan 4024*2, 4S |
| VCI HOBBY Spark 1605 | 571 g | 45.0× | 2.64 | 2450KV, GF D75-3, 6S |
How to read these columns: reading motor bench tables. Turn thrust into a build's thrust-to-weight ratio with the TWR calculator.
