Key Features
- Brushless Outrunner Design — The brushless outrunner configuration eliminates carbon brush wear and maintenance requirements whilst delivering smooth, consistent power delivery throughout flight operations, resulting in longer service life and more reliable performance compared to brushed alternatives.
- 3400Kv Rating — The 3400Kv specification is precisely calibrated for the Revolution 235 CP helicopter platform, ensuring optimal RPM and torque characteristics that have been specifically matched by Spektrum engineers for this airframe.
- Revolution 235 CP Compatibility — This motor is engineered specifically for the Revolution 235 CP helicopter, guaranteeing perfect integration with your existing platform and eliminating compatibility concerns.
- Spektrum Brand Reliability — Spektrum is a globally recognised manufacturer of RC electronics and components, with a reputation for producing dependable, high-quality products that perform consistently under demanding conditions.
- Efficient Power Delivery — The brushless outrunner design maximises electrical-to-mechanical energy conversion, meaning more of your battery's power is converted into useful helicopter thrust rather than being wasted as heat.
Technical Performance
The SPM Brushless Outrunner Motor delivers exceptional technical performance characteristics that helicopter enthusiasts expect from premium RC components. Operating at 3400Kv, this motor produces rapid RPM acceleration and responsive thrust vectoring essential for 3D helicopter manoeuvres and precision flying. The brushless construction eliminates the carbon dust and maintenance intervals associated with brushed motors, allowing you to focus on flying rather than constant upkeep. Spektrum's engineering expertise is evident in every aspect of this motor's design, from the precision-wound stator windings to the sealed bearing construction that protects against dust and moisture ingress. The outrunner configuration, where the bell rotates around a stationary armature core, is the preferred design choice for high-performance RC helicopters because it produces smooth, linear power characteristics across the entire throttle range. This motor integrates seamlessly with standard 6mm bullet connectors found on most RC helicopter ESCs and LiPo battery systems, making installation and replacement straightforward for UK RC hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What helicopter is this brushless motor designed for? — This motor is engineered specifically for the Revolution 235 CP helicopter platform. Spektrum has matched the 3400Kv specification precisely to the performance characteristics and power requirements of this airframe, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
- What makes brushless motors better than brushed motors for RC helicopters? — Brushless motors offer several advantages over brushed designs: they eliminate carbon brush maintenance, produce smoother power delivery with no brush chatter, run cooler and more efficiently, and have significantly longer operational lifespans. These benefits make them the standard choice for serious RC helicopter pilots across the UK and worldwide.
- What does 3400Kv mean? — Kv (kilovolts) is a specification that indicates how many RPM the motor produces per volt of input. A 3400Kv motor will spin faster than lower Kv motors when supplied with the same voltage, making it suitable for helicopters requiring high rotation speeds for rotor head performance.
- What connector type does this motor use? — The SPM Brushless Outrunner Motor features standard 6mm bullet connectors, which are the most common connector type used in RC helicopter electronics across the UK hobby community.
- Is this motor suitable for beginners? — This motor is designed for the Revolution 235 CP platform and is best suited to pilots with experience in RC helicopter operation. The performance characteristics and power delivery are calibrated for intermediate to advanced flying, particularly 3D flight applications.
- What battery compatibility does this motor have? — The specific battery voltage compatibility depends on your ESC selection and the Revolution 235 CP's electrical system. You should consult the helicopter's manual and your ESC specifications to determine appropriate LiPo battery configurations for safe, optimal performance.
