Anyone who said this was an inexpensive hobby, LIED !! Yeah, you can buy a toy...complete with transmitter and play around, BUT... The cost goes UP when you get into quads of better quality...and... they don't necessarily last any longer. When you crash, things can break; When you lose them, they are GONE ! Now, we get into the replacements... Furthermore, in this hobby, quality is a relative term. After all, every bit of this junk is made in China regardless of brand or perception. Build or buy ($$), fly, crash, re-build (more $$), fly, crash, re-build ($$$), repeat... I guess it doesn't have to cost a lot, but then you won't be flying either. • Posts: 2,331 Threads: 117 Likes Received: 809 in 657 posts Likes Given: 126 Joined: Feb 2021 Reputation: 20 The cheapest way to get.

Where I can find new motor for that drone ? Is maybe possible find those bits of metal separately to balance the engine? I don't even know what material they use...probably the glue did not hold up What are the best engines for tiny whoop with kv around 20000 ? • Posts: 5,851 Threads: 47 Likes Received: 2,775 in 2,237 posts Likes Given: 7,601 Joined: Jul 2019 Reputation: 97 Hi Rosssiiii, According to BetaFPV Meteor65 Pro specifications, the motors are 0802 19500 Kv. So, you could buy those motors and just replace the one motor or you could buy something else and replace all 4 of them. You could buy the original motor, but I could only find it in set of 4 on AliExpress. If you took this option, you would only need to replace 1 motor...then you would have 3 spares for the future. Original 0802 19500Kv motors (set of 4). I could only find set of 4. Another option would be to buy a full set of something else and replace all 4 motors. 17000KV will be a little less powerful and 22000Kv or higher will be more powerful. These iFlight Xing motors come in 17000 or 22000Kv (set of 4). Here is the HGLRC Aeolus motors 0802 25000Kv (set of 4). T-Motor F0802 25000Kv motors (set of 4). Here is the GEPRC SpeedX2 0802 22000Kv (set of 4). Since I have had a lot of experience with GEPRC motors, that would be my first choice in a 22000Kv option. Get a set of 4 and swap them all. I have several quads with GEPRC motors in 1103 and 1202 versions. So far, I have not had any problems, issues, or failures with GEPRC motors. I have also had good experience with Flywoo ROBO motors, but AliExpress does not seem to have them; at least not that I could find. These are also good motors. T-Motor is supposed to make good motors, however, I have never used them. Personally, I would stay away from HappyModel, but that is just my opinion. Also be careful of EMAX motors because some of them have stubby shafts and are designed to be used in "pusher" quads and have special pusher props. • Posts: 664 Threads: 121 Likes Received: 24 in 23 posts Likes Given: 490 Joined: Apr 2021 Reputation: 0 (29-Apr-2022, 09:59 PM)iFly4rotors Wrote: Hi Rosssiiii, According to BetaFPV Meteor65 Pro specifications, the motors are 0802 19500 Kv.

I lowered all my filters and turned a couple off and it flies. Great good luck. • |
