The MAXYNOS THOR 2826 (Titan High-Power Outrunner) is a series of planetary-gearbox brushless DC motors designed for compact size, maximum torque, high speed, and high energy efficiency in robotics, automation, and motion-control applications.
THOR motors feature an external-rotor design that delivers significantly higher torque while maintaining excellent thermal stability and energy efficiency.
The MAXYNOS THOR series offers an exceptional size-to-power ratio and peak torque output, engineered for creators, builders, and professionals who demand nothing but the best.
Key Features
28 mm planetary gearbox with three gear ratios: 14:1, 19:1, and 51:1
6 mm D-shaft output and 3.5 mm bullet motor connectors
Two kV options: 1000 kV (higher speed & power) and 850 kV (higher efficiency & cooler operation)
Note: Rated power is specified for the bare motor (without gearbox) at the rated voltage. The nominal torque and speed values shown are output-shaft values after the planetary gearbox and account for typical gearbox efficiency (≈70% for 14:1 and 19:1 ratios, ≈60% for the 51:1 ratio).

High Power Outrunner
Next-Generation Brushless Motor Technology Replaces traditional brushed motors with a more efficient, longer-lasting solution. Offers reduced maintenance, lower heat, and higher reliability over time. High-Torque OutRunner Design: Featuring an external rotor that spins around the stator, this motor generates significantly higher torque at lower speeds. This design improves thermal stability and energy efficiency, eliminating the need for bulky gearing and simplifying your project's design.
Motor Dimensions in mm
Motor Connection Guide
Connecting your brushless motor to the ESC is simple: both components have three wires.
The middle wire of the motor must always connect to the middle wire of the ESC. Do not change this connection.
You can swap the left and right wires if you want to reverse the motor’s rotation direction.
Note: Only one motor can be connected to one ESC. Therefore, each motor requires a dedicated ESC.
FAQs

What voltage should I use with the Maxynos THOR 2826?
The THOR 2826 is available in two kV variants.
The 1000 kV version is rated for operation up to 15 V.
The 850 kV version is rated for operation up to 15 V.
Always follow the rated voltage and continuous current limits shown in the performance tables to ensure safe and reliable operation.
What does the kV rating mean on a motor?
kV represents the motor’s speed constant in RPM per volt at the motor shaft. In a geared motor, the gearbox reduces the output speed while increasing torque. A higher kV provides more speed, while a lower kV provides higher torque and better efficiency.
Motor Speed (RPM) = (Motor kV value) × (Applied Voltage) → Example: 1250 kV Motor speed at 14 V → 1000 × 14 = 17,500 RPM
Gearbox Speed (RPM) = Motor speed ÷ Exact reduction ratio → Example: Gear speed (RPM) at Ratio 27:1 & 14 Volts → 17,500 ÷ 26.85 = 651 RPM
How do I choose between the 1000 kV and 850 kV variants?
Choose 1000 kV if your priority is maximum output speed and peak performance. It is the better option when you want higher RPM.
Choose 850 kV if your priority is efficiency and continuous torque performance. It produces more torque per amp, typically runs cooler at the same output torque, and is a better choice for applications where maintaining lower current draw matters, with the tradeoff of lower output speed.
What ESC should I use with the THOR 2826?
Use a high-quality bidirectional brushless ESC rated for at least 25 A continuous current. MAXYNOS 45 A ESC is fully tested, compatible and recommended for optimal performance and braking control.
What is the difference between rated torque and stall torque?
Rated torque is the maximum torque the motor can produce continuously without overheating. Stall torque is the theoretical maximum at zero speed and should not be used for continuous operation.
Does the THOR Motor require special maintenance?
No routine maintenance is required. The planetary gearbox is permanently lubricated and sealed for long service life. Avoid exceeding rated current and torque limits to ensure maximum lifespan.
Which THORE motor should I choose for my project?
Choosing the correct THOR motor depends on your application’s required torque, speed, size, weight, and efficiency.
The THOR series covers a wide range of motion needs:
THOR 2318
The smallest and lightest option (70 g). Ideal for compact robots, small mechanisms, and applications where space and weight are critical.
THOR 2826 and THOR 2830
Mid-size motors that offer a balance between size, torque, and power. These are well suited for medium-duty robotics, mobile platforms, and general automation projects.
THOR 3548
The largest and most powerful option. Designed for applications that require high torque, high power, and continuous operation, such as heavy robots, AGVs, and industrial motion systems.
Each THOR motor is available in multiple kV ratings and gear ratios, allowing you to fine-tune output speed, torque, and current draw for your specific application.
Every Maxynos motor includes a dedicated technical datasheet that provides:
Rated and no-load torque
Output RPM for each gear ratio
Input current
Motor weight and dimensions
