"Hey, could you tell me the specifics on your 4112 motors? They look very similar to the 4112 sunnyskys I just ordered. Just curious to what others are using, Thanks."

CarbonCore replied to CarbonCore's discussion CarbonCore Hexa 950 with Zenmuse WooKong-M Sony NEX-5N"An interested reader on another forum asked me very valid question,
“How Strong are CarbonCore Multicopters”

Thanks"
CarbonCore replied to CarbonCore's discussion CarbonCore Hexa 950 with Zenmuse WooKong-M Sony NEX-5N"These are 40A ESCs, only because that’s the smallest that can handle 6S LiPo as well.

Allen Bishop said… As I stated in my original post, I was only offering an observation and nothing more. Your follow-up post seemed quite negative so I simply made my last comment more detailed.
The DIY Drones forum is an open forum where everyone posts comments which can be both constructive or simply innocuous. I will make no further comments. I am not a competitor in the UK. I am a designer and marketer of multi-copters, ground based robots and recon devices for the military and law enforcement in the US.
