AnonymousVerified owneron Xnova Lightning 4025-1120KV Brushless Motor w/6mm Shaft (Shaft A)

I ran this motor in both an OXY5 and a Goblin 570 sport with great success. My setup was running on 6S through a Hobbywing 130a ESC. I was turning right at 2900RPM on the head with 15deg of pitch making the heli absolutely ballistic. with this setup on my 570 it moved faster in the air than my 700's with the same collective stop performance. I highly recommend this power setup for any 550 - 600 size platform running 6S. You won't be disappointed.

This motor is built to top spec. The torque and speed are off the charts, too. I've put this in my Align TREX 550X, and the startups and speed consistency couldn't be better.

Scott GriffisVerified owneron Xnova Lightning 4025-1120KV Brushless Motor w/6mm Shaft (Shaft A)

This is my sixth helicopter and my sixth XNOVA motor and it works just a good as the first one I bought five years ago. This on is in a Tron 5.8 with 600mm main blades and matching 95mm tail blades from Azure. The 6s power is supplied to the motor via a hobbywing 150A ESC using ELF governing. The motor runs cool and never sags even in hard blade barking maneuvers on a 95 degree day. These are by far the best motors on the market and worth every penny in my opinion. FYI all six helicopters are still airworthy and all six motors operate just as good as they did on day one.

I use in a Tron 5.8 6S 150 esc and is a rocket I am impressed with the power flying at 72% idle 1 83% idle 3 and it can do everything

Nice motor . If use this motor you will see the perfect and dynamic is your heli.

What reviewers say

All six reviews are verified-owner ratings of 5/5 for the Shaft A variant of this 4025-1120KV brushless motor. Reviewers report strong power and torque in 550 to 600 size helicopters (Oxy 5, Goblin 570, Align TREX 550X, Tron 5.8) running 6S through 130A to 150A ESCs. One reviewer notes the motor runs cool and does not sag over a long period of use in hot conditions, and another reports consistent startups. Reviews are short and largely enthusiastic; none describe a problem or a negative trait, and none compare the Shaft A variant against other shaft options.

  • + Strong power and torque
  • + Good speed consistency
  • + Runs cool under hard flying
  • + Durable over long use
