E-flite BL15 Ducted Fan Motor, 3200Kv - Manual

BL15 Ducted Fan 3200 Kv Brushless Motor Instructions
Thank you for purchasing the E-flite BL15 DF Brushless Motor. This motor is an ideal choice for products
such as Parkzone’s Habu EDF and other similar sized ducted fan airplanes when using the purpose-built
Delta-V 15 69mm EDF (EFLDF15). The motor will provide great performance in 68-70mm diameter fan units
requiring a 28mm inrunner motor. This is a lower current alternative to the 3600Kv BL15 DF motor and works
better in applications where cooling is limited such as in foam models.
BL15 DF 3200Kv Motor Features:
• Purpose-built for the Delta-V 15 69mm EDF (EFLDF15)
• Replacement motor for Parkzone Habu EDF
• Ideal for 68-70mm EDF units requiring a 28mm diameter inrunner motor
• Ideal for up to 800 input watts
• High-quality construction with ball bearings and hardened steel shaft
• 6-pole design

Recommended Ducted Fan Unit: Delta-V 15 69mm EDF (EFLDF15)
Static Thrust: 1.7 lbs on 3S (11.1V) – using recommended Delta-V 15
2.8 lbs on 4S (14.8V) – using recommended Delta-V 15
RPM: 33,800 on 3S (11.1V) – using recommended Delta-V 15

* Maximum Operating Temperature: 220 degrees Fahrenheit
* Adequate cooling is required for all motor operation at maximum current levels.
* Maximum Burst Current duration is 15 seconds. Adequate time between maximum burst intervals is
required for proper cooling and to avoid overheating the motor.
* Maximum Burst Current rating is for full high power and limited motor run flights. Lack of proper throttle
management may result in damage to the motor since excessive use of burst current may overheat the motor.
