The EMAX ECO II 6218 is a high-torque external-rotor brushless motor for 18- to 22-inch multirotor propellers. Two 12S winding options—180KV and 200KV—use a 24N28P architecture, Ø69.3 × 66.2mm body, M6 threaded propeller shaft and 30 × 30mm mounting pattern. At 431g with wire, it is engineered for large FPV aircraft and heavy-lift propulsion systems.
Two 12S power profiles.180KV for 18- to 22-inch propellers.200KV for 18- to 21-inch propellers.

Maximum values were recorded with a JXF 22 × 10 CF two-blade propeller for 180KV and an HQ 20 × 10 three-blade propeller for 200KV. Bench results are configuration-dependent.
03 / Construction
Large outrunner hardware built around precision support.
01 / SHAFT
Steel Shaft
A 6mm bearing section supports the rotating assembly, while the M6 CW threaded propeller interface provides secure retention.
02 / FINISH
Anodized Structure
Anodized metal surfaces provide a durable finish for regular installation and service.
03 / MOUNT
30 × 30mm Pattern
A four-hole 30 × 30mm pattern accepts M4 mounting hardware at the airframe interface.
04 / WINDING
Multi-Strand Winding
Multi-strand winding is specified for the high-current operating range of this large outrunner.
05 / BEARING
Precision Bearing Support
Concentric bearing support promotes smooth shaft rotation under sustained large-propeller load.
06 / LEADS
400mm 14 AWG Wire
Long, heavy-gauge silicone motor leads provide routing flexibility in large-aircraft installations.

180KV / 200KV
One platform, two 12S profiles.
The shared mechanical package lets builders select 180KV or 200KV around the intended propeller load without changing the 30 × 30mm four-hole airframe interface.
The 180KV winding supports the broadest published propeller range, while 200KV provides the higher-RPM choice for 18- to 21-inch propellers.
Installation note: Confirm frame clearance, screw engagement, propeller retention, ESC headroom and cooling before operation.
Serious lift with practical value. The ECO II 6218 combines a 24N28P heavy-lift platform with two 12S winding choices for builders matching propeller size, current and thrust targets.
