T-Motor U7 V2 KV280 Overview

This document summarizes motor, battery, and electronic speed controller (ESC) suggestions for a multi-rotor drone project. It recommends the T-Motor U7 V2 KV280 motor based on its cooling, waterproofing, noise, efficiency, and maximum temperature characteristics. It suggests using 3 7000mAh 6S batteries based on weight balance, ability to hover safely on two batteries if one fails, and lower cost to replace a single battery. Flight times of 25.4 minutes without payload, 21.2 minutes with a 2kg payload, and 9.4 minutes with a 6.3kg payload are estimated for this battery and motor configuration. A T-MOTOR F35A 3-6S

Controllable up to Load @25 c : with even one motor failure we can still hover and land safely.
Specific Thrust[g/w] : Thrust to power , this number is suggested to be near 7 or above.

*M-MEP < L-MEP [W] @ 8kg @5 C : Maximum Electric power of motor reaches to 0.89 of its
limitation !

Some of the Advantages of T-Motor U7 V2 KV 280 :

 motor cooling 2.5 times faster than the other motors.

 water proof and sand-resistant features.

 lower noise.

 highest efficiency of 85 percent even in the case of AIR Temperature of 5 °C,

 Maximum Temperature for this motor reaches to 46 °C which is far less than the other motors.
Following comparison is done on the temperature of 5 Degree for these three motors:
1) T-Motor U7 V2 KV 280

2) T-Motor MN5212 KV 340


3) 5008/340KV Brushless Motor/black (TL96020)

The motor U7 KV 280 is chosen. According to that motor some calculations have been done to
evaluate the optimal number of batteries.

3 * 7000 2721 130
9100 (spore-set up) 19.7 2.1 yes
Because of the following facts 3 7000 mAh batteries have been chosen:
1) weight balance between the battery and the spore set up.
2) within a failure still two more batteries are available to land the drone safely.
3) in case of defection of one battery, the cost covering will be much less to buy another battery.
For the case of U7 KV 280 with the battery of 3*7000 mAh ,25 C an overview can be built:

Battery Battery Weight AUW (g) (only Hover Time


capacity (mAh) (g) drone set-up) (min)
3 * 7000 2721 7100 25.2

Calculation of flight Time in min:


= 25.14 min
In the following you can see a payload check in a setup of 6 rotors:

An AUW of 13.4 Kg will have the current of 17.85A. So the hovering time [min]will be as follows :
(Payload of 6.3 Kg )

= 9.41 min

Summary:

Battery No loading (7.1 Kg) Spore collector load 6.3 Kg payload


(2kg) and 3.5 A draw
3 * 7000mAh 25.4min 21.2 min 9.4 min

ESC suggestion:

ESC Max current draw of motor Continuous current rating of


an ESC
T-MOTOR F35A 3-6S 20.5A 35A
BLHeli_32 Dshot1200

Two important things to consider when choosing ESC:

1. Continuous current rating of an ESC should be 20% greater than max current draw of
motor propeller combination:
20.5 * 120% = 24.6 A< 35A
2. S rating should be equal or greater the S rating of the chosen battery. 6S ESC for 6s
