Why Purchase from Aero Drone Technologies Pvt. Ltd.?
We specialise in drone parts across India, with a strong focus on agricultural UAVs and spray-drone systems — so you receive a part matched to Indian agro-needs, nationwide shipping, and local support.
Our team understands large-format spray drones: heavy-lift motors, big rotors, long flight times, field conditions (dust, humidity, heat) and supports integration & calibration for Indian crops, terrains and weather.
OEM-ready supply: Whether you’re building 20 L, 30 L, 50 L capacity agricultural drones, we can help you source motors, props, ESCs, power systems and ensure compatibility within the system.
Ideal For
OEM manufacturers building heavy-lift agricultural drones (spraying, mapping, seeding) where each axis needs thrust in the 5-7 kg+ range.
Retrofitters upgrading older motors in agro-UAVs to improve payload capacity, efficiency and reliability.
Commercial drone-spraying operators in India requiring robust, field-tested motors that can handle large rotors, heavy payloads and rough agricultural terrain/cycles.

Installation & Field Tips
Ensure proper matching of motor with ESC and battery voltage. For X8 performance figures, use at least 12 S battery and appropriate ESC to support high current draw.
Use recommended large propellers (e.g., 30″ 3011 or similar carbon-fibre folding props) to maximise thrust and efficiency.
Ensure the motor mount and arms (35-40 mm carbon tube recommended) are rigid and vibration-free to maintain balance and longevity.
After mounting, inspect for clearance, prop wash interference, and ensure effective cooling/ventilation since heavy-lift motors generate significant heat under load.
Given Indian field conditions (dust, pesticide spray, high humidity), regular inspection and cleaning is advised. The IPX6/7 rating supports rinsing the motor after use — beneficial for agro-drone maintenance.
Balance props carefully, check for wiring stability and ensure your UAV flight controller is configured to handle the higher inertia and torque of such a motor/prop combo.
Warranty & Support
The motor from Hobbywing (via our supply chain) typically comes with standard manufacturer warranty terms (verify on purchase). Aero Drone provides Indian-customer support for integration, spares, maintenance advice and replacement queries.
