What does the size of a motor mean?

Engine size may also be referred to as ‘engine capacity’ or ‘engine displacement’ and is the measurement of the total volume of the cylinders in the engine. The bigger the engine size, the more space there is for air and fuel inside it. The amount of power produced by an engine is usually quoted in horsepower.

What diameter is a 380 motor?

380 has a diameter ~28mm. 280 has a diameter of 24mm. The S, L or XL after the numbers refers to the motor length.

How do you read motor frame size?

The frame number relates to the “D” dimension (distance from center of shaft to center bottom of mount). For example, in the two-digit 56 frame, the “D” dimension is 3½”, 56 divided by 16 = 3½”. For the “D” dimension of a three-digit frame number, consider only the first two digits and use the divisor 4.

What does a 5.0 liter engine mean?

An example would be the Ford Mustang’s 5.0 liter engine. This simply means that the cylinder space of the engine displaces 5 liters or roughly 302 cubic inches. Naturally, cars with more cylinders will typically have larger displacements.

What is a 3650 size motor?

A 3650 motor will have a shorter rotor than a 3660 motor. Put a crank (on the shaft) and belt (the width of the rotor) on each one and apply a load the larger rotor will have more power as the load increases but take a greater amount of power to sustain the load (more surface area to turn).

What size is a 380 brushless motor?

28mm
Length: 48.15mm (1.9″) Diameter: 28mm (1.1″) Shaft Diameter: 2.7mm (0.11″)

What size is a 390 motor?

The 390, with 390.04 cu in (6.4 L) true displacement, had a bore of 4.05 inches (102.87 mm) and stroke of 3.785 inches (96.14 mm). It was the most common FE engine in later applications, used in many Ford cars as the standard engine as well as in many trucks.

How big is a 540 brushed motor?

Length: 1.96in / 50mm. Output Shaft Length: 0.43in / 11mm. Output Shaft OD: 0.12in / 3.1mm. Min and Max Voltage Range: 2.4V-30V.

How long is a 550 RC motor?

jees if the 550 is only 2.3in long and a 540 is 2.1in longs, how small are the stators in the 540s!?

What does 56C frame mean?

Machine builder Richard J. Kinch says the “C” in “56C” stands for a flange or faceplate mounting system. The four mounting points are on the face of the motor, where the shaft comes out. This mounting arraignment is very useful.

What is the difference between 48Y and 56Y frame?

The only difference between the 56Y and 48Y is the circumfrence (width) of the motor. They will both mount to the seal plate but the 48Y will need an optional spacer (that comes with the motor) to sit on to make up for the difference in size.
