   The new Z30 Series Hyperion Outrunners are big brothers to the immensely popular Z22 motors, and share their quality in materials and design.  From front to back, only the highest quality materials and components are used.  The arrangement of twelve stator poles and fourteen magnet poles is primarily responsible for the high torque the Z Series generates on direct drive.  But there is much more to the "Z" than that.  The stators are hand-wound in an optimal pattern for copper packing, so we get less resistance for a given number of turns.  The stator plates are produced via a CNC process that insures uniformity, and made of a new Japanese silicon steel with superior permeability at high induction.  The stator plates are finished with a lifetime anti-oxidant coating, to eliminate losses which can occur due to magnetic shorting from corrosion. The magnets are especially made for the Z Series motors, and are rounded on both bell and stator sides. The result it that contact area with the bell is complete, and this has two benefits:  First, heat transfer is maximized, so the magnets are much less subject to damage from overheating.

Z3013, Z3019, and Z3025 from bottom to topSecond, the full contact with the bell on one side, and matching curvature to the stator on the other, means that the magnetic flux lines are complete and optimally shaped;  this means higher efficiency, lower incidence of motor stalling, and smoother starts.  The magnets themselves are produced in one of the foremost factories in the world, and are the latest type, featuring both an extremely high temperature rating and high magnetic strength.  They are retained by fingers in the bell-end, and attached with a special high-temp glue made for the Japanese space program.  We think it's just about impossible to throw a magnet, or temperature de-mag these motors.  Finally, the high-speed, shielded stainless bearings in the Z Series are made by NMB Japan;  expensive for Hyperion to install, but well worth it for smoothness and longevity.

One thing you'll notice immediately about the Z30 series is the tapered nose.  It isn't just pretty!  There were two design objectives accomplished:  The extra length in the bearing tube means that the spacing between the three bearings is increased, which provides much needed extra support to the outer rotor.  Motors without this feature tend to develop high-frequency vibration which can loosen magnets.  Equally importantly, the tapered nose has an end diameter of only 28mm and a set of mounting holes with 19mm spacing, which allow it to mount in places similar-sized outrunners never could before.  The wires also exit 12mm (~1/2") behind the motor face, which means that there is clearance for the wires even in tight glider fuselages.  I was astonished to find that the Z3007 would easily fit in my Filip 400 motor glider, for example, without any drilling or cutting on the fuselage.  At only 75 grams (3oz), the Z3007 weighs less than a Speed 400 motor but, at 25A on 3S lithium, powers the Filip 400 like a vertical bullet!  The Z3007 will be available from late May.  We tested the Z3025-08 in a 2M hotliner, too, and it was awesome at 60A peak in 10-second bursts.
HP-TITAN-50PO 50A OPTO Controller
These motors have the highest efficiency we have ever recorded, up to 85%, and everybody who has tried them remarks on their tremendous power and cool running temperatures.

The Hyperion Titan ESC are a perfect match for the motors:
TITAN-30P for Z3007 and Z3013
TITAN-50P for Z3019 and Z3025 sport models and E3D
TITAN-80P for Z3025 in competition gliders

Use 3.5mm gold bullet connectors for Motor<>ESC, and we recommend
Dean's Ultra for Battery<>ESC connection.

The "30" in Z30 stands for the 30mm diameter of the stator, and the following two digits (such as "13" in the motor on left) are the length of the stator in millimeters. The final two digits after the dash indicate the number of wire turns per pole in the motor;  16 turns for the Z3013-16...

Z30 Motor Backmount Set, part#HP-Z30-BKMNT, shown on Z3019-10 motor below.  This set fits Z3013 to Z3025.  For Z3007, use part#HP-Z30-BKMNT-07, which includes 4mm collar for the lighter shaft used in 3007 motors.

The 6mm shaft on the prop adapter is long enough to allow fitting most backplate-type spinners.  We strongly recommend that you use Hyperion ( #HP-LPRING-EP-S6 ) Precision 6mm Smooth adapter rings with APC "E" propellers, to insure a precise fit and less vibration.


Also see the Z30 Motor Mount.  Powerful OutRunner motors require an very rigid mount.  The HP-Z30-FRTMNT is made of rigid cast aluminum to provide the required stiffness.  See full details here.
