Hello,I really like my tricopter to fly with it, but my ESC or motor on the left front arm doesn't work very good. But it is okay, I already fly it about 5 months and want to have longer flight time.I fly with a 2200mah 3S I fly 8 minutes, but I still want to fly for longer, so I was thinking maybe a bigger battery or motors with a lower kv and a bigger prop.So I go for the lower kv motor. Off course it is more expensive but I want some new motors too, so that's why!I want to film with the tri, so it need to fly slow and nice.The setup for now isMotors: DT750ESC 20A SimonkKK2.0And a orange rx receiver.And a spectrum dx6iI was thinking at these motorshttp://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__48103__Turnigy_4206_530kv_Brushless_Multi_Rotor_Motor_EU_Warehouse_.htmlBut then I need to remplace my ESC too.Prop I don't know!Is the motor good?It is the frame from rcexplorer

Okay, i will do this later on the day or tomorrow, now I do not have much time, and I want to take the time for this.

PS, I've still regularly using 4s on my tricopter (unmodified) other than losing a prop from the extra power (having too much fun with the power) motors and esc's are fine.
i have got a mobius too! they are very good cameras for me! but you can make a video from the sight, it does not need to be the best video in the world :)

I solve the jello by making a battery tray under the tri, it is like rcexplorers design but not with Metal rod's but with thik zipties, but then i had the problem that is wobbels from Side to Side i solved it by talking a small Metal rod and gluing it to the Side of the zipties.

I spent an hour last night re-balancing all my props (including spares) and 30 mins this morning balancing 1 of the motors (another 2 to do)...
then today my prop order arrives (the new slo-fly props I bought previously have a weak blade root and don't last long on 4s)

I was both brave and silly and made my 4s from 3s packs, adding an extra cell and redoing all the soldering balance leads etc. not recomended. for safty, I discharged to 3v per cell before doing any soldering though.
I just got from Ebay 2x 4000 6s packs. so these are going to be another 3x 4s packs...
I might take photo's this time round... (they look unused and I needed some decent 4s for my jet)

I've just got myself a mobius, so will see what's that's like.
My flying style even on 3s leads to unwatchable video from an onboard camera...

I've done a Video, unedited, but it's a video...

so now I have another pile of props to balance.
I got a few of these to try...
