Description
MAD CM 3120-500KV-12S BANSHEE FPV DRONE MOTOR
The MAD BANSHEE CM3120 500KV is a brushless FPV drone motor for 12S LiPo power systems. Designed for long-range FPV and cinelifter builds, it combines an anticorrosive stator with internal stainless-steel dust filters and a rotor exhaust-blade design to support cooling.
This listing is for one 500KV-12S motor. Match the motor with a suitable 12S-rated ESC, propeller and airframe before installation.
FEATURES:
- 500KV winding for 12S LiPo FPV power systems.
- Two ultra-thin stainless-steel dust filters inside the stator.
- Internal rotor exhaust-blade design for heat dissipation.
- Anticorrosive stator and 220°C-rated winding insulation.
- 19 mm mounting pattern with four M3 mounting holes.
