Oscar did a great review of the Shuriken X1 200mm race quad. I ordered one. I'd like to order some durable replacement props that tame down the speed some. From what I can tell it ships with 5x4 tri-blades.
Reviews say it's very fast and has powerful motors. It's probably faster than my abilities at the moment. So I'm hoping to choose props that gain efficiency and flight time. I don't care about top end speed yet.
I read Oscar's "How to choose motor and propeller for Quadcopter" article which is very helpful.
From what I can tell in the article I should decrease the pitch from the stock 5x4. I did find some 5x3 tri-blades available.
But should I switch from a 3 blade to a 2 blade prop instead?
Some of the quad specs are:
- T-MOTOR 2305 2600KV motors
- Compact size and 200mm diagonal length for 5 inch propellers
- Input voltage: 7 - 42V
- Filtered voltage output 5.2V 2A
- Weight: 343g ( excluding battery )
I'd like to get durable props --possibly DAL or King Kongs for now.
Thank you.
