Those are the motors that I am running, but I am running a 10x4.5 prop. One thing to keep in mind is that the shaft is slotted, so non slotted props won't fit properly. The self tightening ones should work just fine on it. Just keep it in mind when ordering replacements. I have a lot of fun...

Hello! http://quadcopterforum.com/threads/q450-build-plans.3753/#post-8366 That's my post and build for a Q450. It works well, plenty of lift to carry my gopro, and with my 5500mah battery I can fly for over 20 minutes. I dont think the motors I listed are still available, but I feel I got a...

Hello all, I'm bringing this thread back from the dead. So it's been over a month since I reported in, and I thought I'd do a quick write up about the last month to offer some more insight for newcomers. In the last month I've learned a few very important things: MORE PROPS I was over...

Thanks. I have some plastic props coming, the new ones just have the slot to fit properly around the motor shaft. I'll have to search around for some carbon props. The props are currently the right way up, just they are out of balance because they had to be modified to fit on the shaft which...

I got it up in the air pretty far today. Had no problems. The propellers need replaced for the correct ones to correct the vibrations, but those should be here early next week. I also ordered a 2650mah battery. I'm hoping the less weight will help it fly easier. Take a look, let me know...

Happy Holidays folks! I was able to fly quite a bit over the last two days. I hit a tree branch, knocked off a propeller and lost the dome hex nut that holds the prop on. The nut came off due to me having to alter the props to get them to work. I ordered the correct props from HK already and...

Alright, I got it built and was able to get it up in the air. That being sad, there is still quite a bit of tweaking needed. I flashed the 1.19s Pro firmware since it was the latest from Steveis. I got the MultiStar 2212 920kv motors and ordered some 10x4.5 props. What I didn't realize was...

Can someone offer some personal experience on shipping from Hobby King? As seen in the screenshot below, tracking shows it departed twice from New York on the 12th but hasn't been updated yet. The tracking number listed on the left doesn't register with any other postal/carrier company here in...

Thanks, I'll take a look at the motors again. I've been changing them as I do more research. I left the battery out because I'm going to pick one up locally in the states. I added a strap and the flash tool as well. I really appreciate the suggestion. I'm excited to place my order. It's...

A quick forewarning, I'm fairly new to the hobby but have dumped quite a few hours of research into building a quadcopter. Since I am new to the hobby, I have a tough time pulling the trigger and ordering the parts due to fear that they won't work and I'll have just wasted my money, which is...
