    Props, motors CW CCW confusion

    I am about to chose Motors and propellers to quad I am building. I've seen different approaches (I think), there is some DIY guides that e.g. have same 4 motors (no CCW or CW), and then they say they use 2xCW and 2xCCW propellers. While I was thinking it's about having CCW and CW motors...

    Recommendations on propellers/controller for over 100g body.

    Good afternoon everyone, I am currently trying to build a DIY drone for research. I have never involved myself in any sort of drone projects. Creating a drone is not the main part of the project unlike ME/Aerospace engineering people do, so it does not have to be super fancy. My current...

    Custom Drone build - The motors

    Hi, I hope someone can help me. I've been planning on building my own drone for a while. I've designed and constructed the framework using 3D printing and aluminium tubing. The main issue is, I don't know which motors and blades to use. The length of each arm is 250mm and the total body weight...

    Drones with switchable propellers?

    Are there any drones with switchable propellers? Preferably less than $150? I am doing a science project and want to see if the number of propeller blades affects the rate at which a quadcopter rises. Thank you! Varun

    Propellers Are Not All Alike

    Yeah I know, big newsflash, right? Well, What I'm talking about is you might find minor size differences between props from different manufacturers that are supposedly the same size. I discovered this when I decided to buy a new set of 13" props for my Tarot FY680 Pro hexcopter. I had removed...

    Syma X5 with standard props?

    Good day guys! I just wanted to ask if there is any way to use standard propellers with the Syma x5 motors.. I'm working on building a quad since I lost it 6 months ago, now I have the transmitter only and instead of selling it I plan to create a new quad by buying spare parts of the motors...

    How to Get Self-Tightening Bolts Loose

    I have just completed building my first quad and I have used self-tightening bolts on the motor. However, now I need to change the first prop, but I cannot get the bolt loose. Does anyone have any tips to get the bolt loose (and I have double checked which way to loosen the bolt).

    CW vs CCW Motor Placement

    I know where to put CW and CCW props and which way the motor has to spin, however, I have gotten some motors and the top parts (I'm sorry I don't know the exact name, it is the little cone that holds the props in), some screw in CW (i.e. righty tighty) and some screw in CCW. Should the motors...

    Will These Motors Fit a Prop with a 5mm Hole?
