Brushless Motor Platform

EMAX ECO II 6218

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.

Choose from the complete aircraft backward. Match motor KV to battery voltage, propeller load, ESC rating, aircraft mass, airflow and required thrust. Published ranges are selection guidance; validate the final power system under realistic thermal conditions.

02 / Performance Envelope

Maximum tested thrust by KV.

Each bar shows the highest thrust recorded in the official test sheet for that winding. Both bars share a 14.169kg scale.

180KV47.66V
14.169kg
200KV47.65V
13.857kg

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.

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.

EMAX ECO II 6218 heavy-lift motor platform for 18- to 22-inch aircraft

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.

05 / Electrical Specifications

KV-specific operating limits.

Use only the published voltage and propeller range for the selected winding. Confirm ESC current capability and thermal headroom for the complete aircraft.

Bench-test note: Performance values are measured test data, not guaranteed aircraft-level performance. Current draw, thrust, efficiency, RPM and temperature vary with propeller, battery voltage and sag, ESC behavior, airflow, ambient conditions and test equipment. Select the motor winding, propeller, ESC, battery and cooling appropriate for the complete aircraft.
