"I pull the C-clips on my downward facing motors. This way I can just pull off the tops of the motors and props with them for transport. Also allows for cleaning of iron grit that the magnets can pick up."

"I've built three lawnmowers (Down Facing Motors) and have had good success. I like downward as I pull the retaining clips on the motor shafts allowing me to be able to pull the tops of the motors off with the propellers still attached. Great for…"

"Yah, that's kind of my biggest fear. The battery will be strapped to the bottom instead of the landing gear, so size really isn't as big an issue as weight. All up weight should be 730g, and my calculated max thrust should be close 1600g (Hoping),…"
