Leopard LC4260 Series Brushless Airplane Motor
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

Note on size equivalents: Rimfire considers its 4260 series a .46 or .55 depending on KV size. This motor is larger than an E-Flite Power 32 and Suppo 3520, but smaller than an E-Flite Power 46 and Suppo 4120.
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. If an issue is found to be the fault of a manufacturing defect with the motor, we will replace the item or refund the original purchase price (buyer’s choice) on behalf of Leopard Power Model Co.

My 4th leopard motor great service rugged and dependable. Side note use loctite on the motor to X mount connection. Still looking for the motor that parted company with my stick making it super tail heavy. Ug
Everything needed to mount up and connect.
Leopard motors are my go-to motors. I have 3 of this size motor and 8 others of various sizes. Never had a problem with the Leopard motors, Very good quality and a great price point.
great
Leopard motors are excellent motors. I have at least 10 of these different motors in several of my planes. Never had a problem.
Installed this in a Horizon Hobby Twist 40 using a 5-cell LiPo
Started with a 13 x 6 prop - nowhere near enough power.
Changed to a 14 x 10 prop and was sufficient for basic power for takeoffs and
simple manuvers. Model weighs about 7# - apparently the 330kV would require
a larger prop and 6 cell LiPo to produce enough power for the model.
Heading to change the motor to something with more power with a 5-cell battery.
Not enough room for a 6-cell in the airplane.
I purchased this motor for a scratch built Phil Kraft design Ugly Stick. The plane weighs 3.75 pounds. I’m using a Falcon 16X6 electric series propeller . 80 AMP ECS.
This combo using 5 cell 5000 45 C batteries gives me 13 honest minutes flying tome. Unlimited vertical makes the stick fly like an all out 3D plane. Very happy with the Leopard motor planning to purchase more of them in the future.
