JMT 1806 2400KV Brushless Motor for 250 Mini Drone FPV Quadcopter (CW Silver)
JMT 1806 2400KV Brushless Motor for 250 Mini Drone FPV Quadcopter (CW Silver)
The JMT 1806 2400KV brushless motor is built for mini multi-rotor drones, particularly 250-size FPV quadcopters. It runs on 2-3S LiPo batteries, delivers up to 70W of power, and weighs only 16 grams. This version is the clockwise (CW) motor with a silver motor cap, while the counterclockwise (CCW) variant has a black cap. Ideal for DIY builds like CC3D, 260, and 330 frames.
How Does This Motor Fit Your Drone Build?
This motor is a direct fit for 250 mini drone frames and similar multi-rotor platforms. With a stator diameter of 18 mm and a 2400KV rating, it pairs well with 2-3S setups and 5-inch propellers. The lightweight design (16g) helps keep your quad agile while providing enough thrust for sport flying and FPV racing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the CW and CCW versions?
The CW motor has a silver cap and rotates clockwise, while the CCW motor has a black cap and rotates counterclockwise. You need one of each for opposite corners of your quad to maintain proper flight dynamics. This listing is for 1 CW motor; CCW is sold separately.
What battery should I use?
This motor works with 2-cell (7.4V) or 3-cell (11.1V) LiPo batteries. For best performance with a 2400KV motor on a 250 frame, a 3S 1300-2200mAh pack is common, but always check your ESC and prop combination.
How much does this motor weigh?
The motor itself weighs 16 grams without cables, keeping your quad light and responsive. With connectors and wires added, the total weight is slightly higher.
Is this motor suitable for a 180mm or 250mm frame?
Yes, the 1806 size is typical for 180-250mm mini quads. It provides a good balance of thrust and efficiency for acro flying and FPV racing.
