HURC 2409-12T Outrunner Brushless Electric Motor

The 2409-12T is no longer available. Please check out the Emax GF2215/15

The 2409-12T is a 2.3 ounce direct drive outrunner brushless motor designed for fast park flyers.

If your looking for terrific performance for planes designed for speed, the 2409-12T is the motor to consider. This motor is nearly identical in weight to the 350 brushed/geared motors that come with many kits, but provides about TWICE the thrust! And the plastic stick mount that comes with the motor makes it a drop in fit for many models.

We consider this the ultimate GWS Warbird motor. We like speed and power on a Warbird - most flyers do! Well, the 2409-12T gives you a big dose of each. Put this motor on a GWS Mustang or GWS Corsair and you'll have unlimited vertical with LOTS of speed. If you love doing low level high speed passes with warbirds, the 2409-12T is the perfect motor for it.

Our favorite combination with this motor is a GWS 9050 prop, EZ Flite 35A ESC, and an 11.1v 1500 30C Lipo battery. This combination will fly a GWS Warbird straight up with good speed!

By the way, the 2409-12T works great for upgrading the Parkzone Stryker to brushless power. Use the TP 7x6 prop for some really great performance. And some flyers have turned their Multiplex Easy Star into a 'shooting star' with this same combination!

Another great application for the 2409-12T is on the GWS C-47. Use the Master Airscrew 6x4 3 blade prop with this motor for scale looks and about 32 ounces of combined thrust. Our small 3mm prop adapter works nice with this prop.

A firewall mount and plastic stick mount are included, along with mounting screws. Please look closely at the picture below to see how and where to attach to the plastic mount. The motor sits up higher on the plastic mount than most people think. For instructions on how to attach the motor to the plastic mount, there is a very well done guide on the Wattflyer forums.

Always check the tightness of  all motor set screws when installing motors. The set screws require a 1.5mm Allen wrench.
