Replacement motors

Posted by Vincent Mees on June 21, 2011 at 11:58am

I've been using the KDA 20-22L since the beginning of my quad project that started in september 2010.

I would like to hear some opinions concerning an alternative to the KDA.

I'm using a MK50 frame and would like a little more power and quality.

Any suggestions?

 

Thx

    My Roxxy 2824-34 are installed and running very smooth.

    The quality is better than the KDA's.

    I bought a few MT2814 motors to test.

    They weigh in at around 100grams  and with a 13*4 prop will stay cool at 1900 grams thrust.  Very little vibration, and well built for the price.

    I think I found a candidate:

     

    The Roxxy 2824_34. These have a good price and are ready available here in Belgium.

    I checked some reviews about them and they are also used on the Mikrokopter. They are a equivelant of the KDA's but better quality.

     

    I'll be using 10x4.7 APC props and Turnigy plush 25A.

     

    If there are any objections these 3 items get married, speak now or forever hold your peace... ;-).

    Thx for the info.

    It seems that a lot of the "heavier" motors need bigger props.

    What about batt life?

    What about the Roxxy 2827-34 or 35?

    And the Turnigy 2217-35 ( which is also low budget)

     

    Is there a list of tested motors proven to work with arducopter software?

    These are the ones which I use - they have survived many hard knocks ....
