Key features:
- Integrated & Ready-to-use Propulsion System
  The X8 brushless power system is a power system capable of carrying a load of 5~7kg (per rotor). It can provide a thrust of up to 15.3 kg and is compatible with 40/35mm carbon fiber tube arms for the D40 version or 35/30mm carbon fiber tube arms for the D35 version.
- FOC-based PMSM Algorithm Perfect Propulsion System
  The FOC (Field Oriented Control)-based PMSM (Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) algorithm, an optimized algorithm for improving the collaborative performance of the ESC, motor & propeller, makes the motor-propeller more balanced and creates a propulsion system that features high stability, reliability, and efficiency.
- Compared with the BLDC motors, the PMSM has a lot of advantages such as low noise, small size, high power density, low pulsating torque, and high control precision.
- Waterproof
  The X8 propulsion system is waterproof to IPX7 standard. It’s applicable to almost all the harsh working conditions (for agricultural applications) like rainwater, pesticides, salt spray, high temperature, sand and dust. Combined with the outlets at the bottom of the motor mount (note: patented design), you can directly rinse the system with freshwater after use.
- Multiple Protection Functions & Real-time Data Output
  The ESC included in the X8 power propulsion, which features a series of protection functions like power-on self test, power-on abnormal voltage, over-current motor lock-up, and can output the running data like input throttle, output throttle, RPM, input voltage & current, output current, capacitor temperature and MOS temperature to the FC (Flight Controller) in real time to allow the FC to know the running status of the (ESC & motor) power combo in real time, and improve the flight performance, efficiency and reliability of the drones.
- Using the Hobbywing DataLink data box (note: item sold separately) can record the real-time running data of 8 ESCs simultaneously and transmit those data to the FC via the Bus to form a closed-loop control system.)
- High-brightness LED Indicator
  The X8 propulsion system also contains a high-brightness LED indicator, you can choose the light color or disable it. It can provide the information about the working status of the system and send a warning when any abnormal issue occurs, that significantly improves the safety of the system.
- High Thrust & Efficiency Propeller (Purchased separately)
  The 3011 propeller made of special high-strength carbon fiber is solid and light, and guarantees great consistency and excellent dynamic balance. The optimized aerodynamic shape and unique blade tip design combined with the optimized electromagnetic design adopted by the motor and the high efficiency FOC (Field Oriented Control) algorithm implemented by the ESC guarantee the high thrust & efficiency of the propulsion system.
- Super Impact Resistance
  The high-strength CNC-machined aluminum alloy frame combined with the optimized structure design protect the motor components effectively, make the motor really impact-resistant, and greatly reduce the possibility of structure deformation/malfunction caused by drop or hit. Note: the internal strengthened cross beam structure (adopted by the motor) is an impact-resistant design patent;
  the triple inter-locking structure design is a Hobbywing patent.
- Modular Design Easy to Maintain
  The X8 propulsion system features a modular design. When it is damaged, you can change the damaged part like blades (single or two), the propeller adapter, or the integrated power combo (ESC+motor) easily and quickly.
- Regular Firmware Updates
  You can upgrade the ESC with the Hobbywing USB LINK software, a LCD program box (item sold separately) and a laptop. Hobbywing updates its ESC firmware regularly giving you upgraded features more often when available.
- Bulk order requests available.

IMPORTANT NOTE

X8 series is designed for Agricultural application or logistics transportation in farmland. Agricultural UAV features high thrust, heavy loaded, good anti-corrosive and anti-rust performance. Due to heavy motor/ESC, its thrust effect maybe lower compared to aerial photography UAV. It focuses on durability and longer term reliability. In contrast, Aerial photography UAV features a high thrust effect. It demands more reliability and stability than plant protection UAV. Due to the lightweight motor / ESC, it is not recommended to use it in a server / harsh environment. Propeller sold separately
