E-FLITE Park 480 Instructions

Thank you for purchasing the E-flite Park 480 Brushless Outrunner Motor, 910 Kv. The Park 480 Brushless Outrunner Motor
with 910 Kv is designed to deliver clean and quiet power for 3D park flyers 20- to 30-ounces (565- to 850-grams), scale park
flyers 25- to 35-ounces (710- to 990-grams), or models requiring up to 250 watts of power. It's an especially good match for E-
flite's Mini Edge 3D ARF (EFL2225) and Mini Funtana 3D ARF (EFL2075), and would provide extreme power for sport park
flyers such as the Mini Ultra Stick ARF (EFL2250).

Io: .85A @ 8V (no load current)
Ri: 80 mohms (resistance)
Continuous Current: 20A*
Max Burst Current: 25A*
Watts: up to 250
Cells: 6-10 Ni-MH/Ni-Cd or 2-3S Li-Po
Recommended Props: 10x7 to 12x6 'Electric'
Brushless ESC: 25A - 40A (EFLA312B)
* Maximum Operating Temperature: 220 degrees Fahrenheit
* Adequate cooling is required for all motor operation at maximum current levels.
* Maximum Burst Current duration is 15 seconds. Adequate time between maximum burst intervals is required for proper cooling and to avoid overheating the
motor.
* Maximum Burst Current rating is for 3D and limited motor run flights. Lack of proper throttle management may result in damage to the motor since excessive
use of burst current may overheat the motor.
Determine a Model's Power Requirements:
1. Power can be measured in watts. For example: 1 horsepower = 746 watts
2. You determine watts by multiplying 'volts' times 'amps'. Example: 10 volts x 10 amps = 100 watts
Volts x Amps = Watts
3. You can determine the power requirements of a model based on the 'Input Watts Per Pound' guidelines found below, using the flying weight of the model (with
battery):
•
50-70 watts per pound; Minimum level of power for decent performance, good for lightly loaded slow flyer and park flyer models
•
70-90 watts per pound; Trainer and slow flying scale models
•
90-110 watts per pound; Sport aerobatic and fast flying scale models
•
110-130 watts per pound; Advanced aerobatic and high-speed models
•
130-150 watts per pound; Lightly loaded 3D models and ducted fans
•
150-200+ watts per pound; Unlimited performance 3D models
NOTE: These guidelines were developed based upon the typical parameters of our E-flite motors. These guidelines may vary depending on other motors and
factors such as efficiency and prop size.
4. Determine the Input Watts per Pound required to achieve the desired level of performance:
Model: E-flite Mini Edge 3D ARF
Estimated Flying Weight w/Battery: 1.6 lbs
Desired Level of Performance: 150-200+ watts per pound; Unlimited performance 3D models
