Archive:Multicopter/Copter Motors

Motors need to be brushless. Light and cheap is good as well.

Parameters

• KV: Rotations per volt; should be between 600 and 1200 and needs to match the propeller. Some examples:
  • 1200kv - 8 inch, 4.7 blades
  • 1000kv - 10 inch, 4.7 blades
  • 800kv - 12 inch, 4.7 blades

Possible motors

• Turnigy Multistar 3525-650Kv - Quite slow for the (lack of) power, but seems to be a good match for a slow flying video copter
• Turnigy 4208 620kv - Slow as well, bit more power
• hexTronik DT750 - bit heavy, widely used
