XNOVA LIGHTNING 4525-530KV SERIES (SHAFT A) - SAB Raw/Kraken/ILGoblin 700

The Xnova Lightning 4525 V3 Series Motor is a high-performance brushless outrunner developed for demanding 700-size RC helicopters. Designed for aggressive sport flying, extreme 3D, and competition-level setups, it delivers an excellent combination of power, efficiency, low weight, and consistent performance throughout the flight.

Building on Xnova’s proven 4525 motor platform, the V3 Lightning Series introduces improved cooling, greater efficiency, and stronger overall power delivery. Its compact 45 × 25 mm stator configuration makes it an excellent choice for pilots who want powerful 700-class performance without the additional size and weight of a larger motor.

This motor is especially well suited to lightweight and performance-oriented 700-size helicopters using approximately 690–720 mm main blades. Depending on the selected KV, gearing, battery voltage, and flying style, it can provide smooth sport performance or the high power required for demanding 3D flying.

Key Features

• Designed for 700-Size Helicopters: An excellent motor choice for lightweight and high-performance 700-class machines using approximately 690–720 mm main blades.
• High Power Output: Delivers strong and consistent power for aggressive sport flying, extreme 3D manoeuvres, and competition-level setups.
• Excellent Power-to-Weight Ratio: The compact 4525 stator provides impressive power while helping keep the helicopter’s overall flying weight lower than setups using larger motors.
• Improved Efficiency: Thin stator laminations help reduce energy loss, improve efficiency, and maintain consistent performance throughout the flight.
• Enhanced Cooling Design: The integrated airflow system helps move heat away from the motor during sustained high-load operation.
• Premium Copper Windings: Thick, single-strand YY hand-wound copper wire provides excellent current handling, durability, and heat resistance up to 300°C.
• High-Grade Magnets: High-performance neodymium magnets rated up to 180°C provide dependable operation under demanding flying conditions.
• Competition-Level Performance: Well suited to pilots looking for a responsive and powerful motor for lightweight 700-size competition and 3D builds.
