Which kind of high RPM can find
To achieve high RPM (revolutions per minute) for your central turbo fan, you’ll need to select an appropriate motor based on your drone’s requirements. Here’s an overview of high-RPM motors commonly used in similar applications:
1. Brushless DC Motors (BLDC)
- RPM Range: Up to 100,000 RPM (depending on size and design).
- Features:
- Lightweight and efficient.
- High torque-to-weight ratio.
- Suitable for continuous operation with proper cooling.
- Applications: Drones, electric vehicles, and high-speed fans.

- RPM Range: 20,000 to 70,000 RPM.
- Features:
- Designed for industrial and high-speed applications.
- Require an inverter or variable frequency drive (VFD) for speed control.
- Applications: Industrial blowers and pumps.

Key Factors to Consider When Choosing a Motor:
Durability: High RPM motors experience greater wear and tear, so select a model with robust construction.
Power-to-Weight Ratio: Select a motor that delivers sufficient thrust without adding unnecessary weight.
Voltage and Current: Ensure compatibility with your drone’s battery system.
Cooling Requirements: High RPM motors generate significant heat and may need active cooling.
Efficiency: Choose a motor with high efficiency to maximize flight time.
Plasma Motors
Plasma motors are an advanced propulsion technology typically used in space applications rather than for Earth-bound drones. However, their principles might inspire future designs for drones:
What Are Plasma Motors?
- Plasma motors, also called ion thrusters, generate thrust by ionizing a gas (like xenon) and accelerating the ions using electric or magnetic fields.
- The exhaust velocity of plasma engines can reach very high speeds, making them extremely efficient in the vacuum of space.
Challenges for Drone Use:
- Thrust Limitations: Plasma motors produce very low thrust compared to traditional fans, making them unsuitable for lifting heavy payloads (like a person).
- Power Requirements: Plasma engines require significant electrical power, often provided by solar panels or nuclear generators in space.
- Atmospheric Constraints: Plasma propulsion is optimized for use in a vacuum. Atmospheric drag and air density reduce its efficiency on Earth.
Potential Applications in Drones:
While impractical for current drone designs, miniaturized plasma propulsion systems might be used for:
- High-altitude drones in near-space conditions.
- Silent propulsion systems, leveraging ionized airflow.

Quantum Motors
Quantum motors, as the name suggests, relate to speculative or emerging technologies involving principles of quantum mechanics. While no fully realized “quantum motor” exists today in a practical, deployable form, several concepts are being explored:
Possible Types of Quantum Motors:
- Quantum Vacuum Propulsion (Q-Thrusters):
- Theoretical propulsion systems leveraging quantum field fluctuations or the Casimir effect to generate thrust.
- No fuel required; would be incredibly efficient if realized.
- Currently theoretical and has no proven application.
- Superconducting Motors:
- Motors leveraging quantum principles like superconductivity for highly efficient, low-resistance operation.
- Possible to build lightweight, high-torque motors using superconducting materials, but they require cryogenic cooling.
- Quantum Computing Integration:
- Using quantum algorithms to optimize motor control systems for efficiency and responsiveness.
- Indirect application in future drones, particularly for AI-driven navigation and propulsion optimization.
Challenges:
- Feasibility: Quantum propulsion systems are still in the realm of theoretical physics or experimental prototypes.
- Cost and Complexity: Quantum systems are expensive and technologically demanding to implement.
- Scale: Most quantum motor concepts are not designed for Earth applications but for space exploration.

Here is a conceptual illustration of a futuristic quantum motor, designed based on current theoretical principles.
Conclusion: Are They Viable for Your Drone?
- Plasma Motors: Currently impractical for Earth-based drones due to low thrust and high power requirements.
- Quantum Motors: Still in the realm of theoretical or experimental physics; no practical applications for drones today.
If you’re seeking innovative but practical options, hybrid systems, like electric fans with plasma-assist ionization or superconducting motors, might be worth exploring in the future. For now, advanced brushless motors remain the best option for high-RPM, high-efficiency applications.
