Savöx have just released their full range of out runner helicopter motors. I have been involved in some of the product testing over the last six or seven months for Savöx and I had this to say on the Savöx UK Facebook page;

“I have been fortunate enough to be using Savöx motors in all of my electric helicopters for several months now and the results have been simply amazing.

Even before any kind of running these motors impressed with the quality and accuracy of their manufacture. The hardened shaft measured as perfectly precise with absolutely zero run-out present and the balance of the can being right on the money to ensure the smoothest run possible for your electric helicopter.

Underneath their cool green and black exterior the Savöx motors are amazingly powerful but with an apparently much higher efficiency to most other high end performance motors. Their integrated fan design seems to strike the perfect balance between ultimate power possible and maximum cooling ability as the motors are only moderately warm after hard flights. In fact with no drop in performance at all, my flight times have increased over previously used motor brands.

Whether you are looking for that top end performance or simply just trying to maximise your flight times and efficiencies you can’t go wrong with the all new Savöx motors.
