    Motor shafts

    So after losing control of my X525 I now have three of the four motors with slightly bent shafts. I have spent so long looking for replacement shafts for an Angel a2212 800kv motor, which is 3mm x 40mm and had no luck. There are other shafts for different motors but not these and so I am going...

    Battery confusion

    I have finished building my X525, the final piece was the batteries and charger. Now my charger didn't come with a mains adapter and so I had to look through my tangled Web of old stock. I bought 3s 5500mah 35c batteries, I am happy with just plodding around, so the weight is okay. So I go to...

    Connectors

    So after finishing the X525 I am now going to go back and remove the connectors between the ESC's and the motors, they are more trouble than they are worth!

    Jitter

    So my first build has ended after one motor refuses to run, it just jitters. I have tried swapping the wiring and I have checked the connections and solder joints, I swapped it with one of the other motors and that ran perfectly. So today I am going to put the motor in a cordless drill and...
