CubeMars GL60 II KV28 BLDC Gimbal Motor Encoder with CAN PWM Control
The CubeMars GL60 II KV28 BLDC Gimbal Motor Encoder is a GL II series brushless gimbal motor for high-end gimbal systems, autonomous-driving perception modules, rotating sensor heads, and other high-precision motion platforms. Compared with earlier GL designs, CubeMars lists a 37.5% cogging torque reduction and a low cogging torque of about 1.5 cN.m for smoother low-speed control.
This version integrates a hollow driver board with CAN and PWM communication support. The official GL60 II data also lists three control modes: MIT mode, position-speed mode, and speed-only mode, making it easier to match different control architectures.
The motor uses a large 20mm through-hole for internal cable routing, a compact 70.5 x 33.6mm body, and a listed 276g motor weight. For 24V operation, CubeMars lists up to 1.5Nm peak torque, while 16V operation lists 1Nm peak torque and 448rpm no-load speed.

FAQ
How does GL60 II differ from the earlier GL60?
GL60 II adds an integrated hollow driver board with CAN and PWM support, while the earlier GL60 is a GL-series gimbal motor that requires separate controller integration. The official GL60 II page also lists a 37.5% cogging torque reduction.
Does OpenELAB list multiple Shopify variants for this product?
No. The current Shopify product is a single variant with SKU CubeMars-GL60II.
What voltage data is officially listed?
CubeMars lists performance data for both 16V and 24V operation. At 16V, peak torque is listed as 1Nm; at 24V, peak torque is listed as 1.5Nm.
Does GL60 II support CAN control?
Yes. The official product page lists CAN and PWM communication support through the hollow driver board.
Which control modes are supported?
The official GL60 II page lists MIT mode, position-speed mode, and speed-only mode.
Is GL60 II waterproof?
The official GL60 II specification table does not list a waterproof or dustproof class, so do not treat it as waterproof unless your project has separate environmental protection.
What is included in the package?
The official packing contents list one GL60 II KV28 gimbal motor, one Power CAN cable, one serial cable, and one Certificate of Conformance.
Can it be used for sensor-head cable routing?
Yes. The motor has a listed 20mm through-hole, which can help route cables through the center of a gimbal or rotating perception module.
Where should I start for software setup?
