Bixler Motor

Posted by Finnius on March 31, 2013 at 6:54pm

I am going to upgrade the motor on my Bixler to a good one for FPV and drine loads. I am thinking of using a 1800kv motor on my Bixler, with a 7x5 APC prop. I am hoping someone can tell me if it will work - is it powerful enough, too powerful, is the prop too big.

The bixler is a drone and FPV platform.

This is the motor i was thinking of using:

Your prop will be too big unless you are using an aftermarket motor mount like this

Even so you are better off, with that motor, but in 2200kv, with a 6x4. You will get PLENTY of power for your gear all at around 30-35 amps draw.
