XTO-3115: 1,900W Brushless Motor for 10-Inch FPV Drones
The X-TEAM XTO-3115 is a high-performance outrunner brushless DC motor purpose-built for 10-inch FPV drones, X-Class multi-rotors, and heavy-lift UAV platforms. With 1,943W peak power and 4.8kg of thrust per motor on 10-inch tri-blade props, it handles cinema cameras, LiDAR payloads, and demanding flight missions with ease.

900KV vs 1100KV: Which KV Should You Choose?
900KV is the efficiency-focused option. It draws less current at the same throttle, which translates to longer flight times. Choose 900KV if you are building a long-range FPV cruiser, a mapping drone, or any build where endurance matters more than raw power.
1100KV is the performance option. It produces more RPM per volt, delivering higher top-end thrust. Choose 1100KV for X-Class cinematic lifters, heavy-payload drones, or freestyle builds where punch and acceleration are priorities.
What Makes the XTO-3115 Different?
- Hollow Rotor Cooling: The open rotor design channels airflow directly through the stator windings, keeping temperatures stable even under sustained 80A+ loads.
- 12N14P Magnetic Design: Industry-standard configuration ensures smooth startup, zero cogging, and precise throttle response — critical for cinematic footage.
- Premium Materials: N42SH high-temperature neodymium magnets paired with 0.2mm ultra-thin silicon steel laminations reduce iron losses and improve efficiency.
- Competitive Weight: At 130g, the XTO-3115 is lighter than most 35XX-class motors with comparable output — an ideal power-to-weight ratio for 10-inch builds.
- Custom KV Available: Need a specific KV for your build? X-TEAM winds to your specification at no extra charge via factory-direct OEM service.

FAQ
Q: Can the XTO-3115 be used on a 7-inch build?
Technically yes, but it is overkill. The XTO-2807 (57g) is a much better match for 7-inch FPV drones. The 3115 is optimized for 9-11 inch propellers.
Q: What battery should I use with the 900KV version?
6S LiPo is the standard recommendation. The 900KV on 6S with 10×4.5 props achieves excellent efficiency (~5.2 g/W at 30% throttle), making it ideal for long-range cruising.
Q: Does X-TEAM offer custom KV winding?
Yes. X-TEAM provides factory-direct OEM/ODM custom KV winding service. Contact chris@x-teamrc.com to discuss your specific requirements.
Q: How does the XTO-3115 compare to ReadyToSky 3115 or EMAX ECO II 3115?
The XTO-3115 uses N42SH high-temp magnets and 0.2mm laminations, delivering higher continuous power handling (1,900W+ vs typical 1,500W in competing 3115 motors). It also features a factory-custom KV option that competitors rarely offer.
Q: What is the ideal 10-inch FPV motor KV?
For 6S 10-inch builds, 900-1100KV is the sweet spot. 900KV prioritizes flight time, while 1100KV maximizes thrust. Anything above 1200KV on a 10-inch prop draws excessive current and generates unnecessary heat.
