Description

Expertly designed and precisely constructed using the most advanced CNC components, Leopard Brushless Motors adhere to the highest and strictest quality standards. Leopard Power Model Co. has over 15 years experience manufacturing high quality precision hardware, and is focused on ensuring the consistency of their products. Constructed from beautifully anodized aluminum alloy and top-quality components, Leopard motors deliver optimum performance, quality, and reliability at a price much less than many other premium motor brands on the market today.

Leopard LC-series brushless motors feature an extended shaft which protrudes out the rear of the motor. This allows the user flexible mounting options without having to disassemble the motor to reverse the shaft. The user can either (1) mount the motor in a traditional manner against the front of a firewall and use the included bolt-on prop adapter, or (2) mount it against the rear of the firewall with the shaft extending forward. This mounting option is most common in sailplanes or racer-style models and requires you to use a collet-style adapter available separately or sometimes included with your model.

Features:

● Lightweight design uses reinforced materials to ensure high-speed operation under constant conditions
● High efficiency w/ low running temperatures
● Built from top-quality materials with premium imported bearings
● Dynamic balancing accuracy of at least 99%, greatly improving the efficiency of the motor.
● Hand wound with precision
● High overload capacity
● Excellent heat dissipation
● Designed to endure even the most demanding applications
● Long service life with minimal maintenance required

Warranty: Leopard guarantees the quality and precision of their products, and all Leopard brushless motors come with a 240-day warranty from the time of purchase.

I am happy, I have purchased quite a few mothers and ESCs over past few years and they have disappointed me.
I plan to purchase a another soon.

Prop adapter does not fit

The prop adapter and screws did not line up/fit on the motor. Order and shipping speed was good so I gave 4 stars since the quality issue is not Altitude Hobbies fault. I requested a return. Hopefully this goes as smooth as the order did.

Hi, Daniel -- we had Leopard send the wrong size adapter in a few of these in our last shipment. We will send out a new adapter and that should solve your problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Garret @ AH

Leopard motors

I use these on all of my scratch built planes. My latest is a Sweet N Low Stik. It will have a 4250-850 on it. These motors are smooth running with lots of power.

Leopard 3542-6T 920kv Brushless

I had to replace a motor that came installed in a PNP airplane that came in bad and was a faulty motor. I didn't hesitate to purchase a Leopard motor for replacement because of having such good results from many other Leopard motors. It is my go to motor and always purchase from Altitude Hobbies.

Great motor and great price

I'm going to run this in a small plane and get as much power out of it as I can. Keeps up with the high end motors at a bargain price.

Great Motor for the money

As always Altitudehobbies is fantastic!

This is a good motor with a nice build quality, in fact, It's the 3rd motor from leopard I have purchased. The bearings seem to be of good quality, the windings are tight and look to be clean. Mounting hardware is lightweight aluminum. I would say this is a 5 start motor, however find the "Wires" attached to the preinstalled bullet connectors are just extension's of the motor windings and rather brittle. I have had to solder new bullet plugs onto the wire's on 2 motors. This would be the best motor's money could buy if the wires where dense silicone. Otherwise money well spent.

I Love Leopard Hobby Motors

This is my 4th Leopard Hobby motor, and I have found them all to be of very good quality, and very powerful, especially for the money.

Best motor I have ever used

This motor puts out as much power as a hacker 30 12 xl . Quiet cool and efficient. runs longer than any on the same 4s battery.
