so im going to build my own quad for fpv. i been going though tons of web pages and reading up about it as much as possible. i have come up with the following set up
Frame: reptile 500 v3
flight control: apm2.5
telemetry: 3dr air to ground
RX: Orange 8 channel
battery: 4s5000 or 3s5000
motor: ntm prop drive 28-26 1100
props: 9x6 for 3s or 8x4 for 4s
ESC: Q brain 4x25Amp
camera: Go pro
gimble: not selected but aveage weight around 250g
FPV tx: not selected but average weight 30
My issue is with the frame full loaded with a 4s battery i am looking at 1770g and i not sure the motors and props will be enough.
with 4s and 8x5 prop i will get 3.3kg of thrust. flight time would be quite short with the bigger battery and prop
3s battery and 9x6e prop will get 2.9kg of thrust. this would not be double the overall weight
what do you guys think on this or do you think it will be ok to run 3s battery or 4s battery set up?
i tried putting the info in to ecalc but hobby king has no resistance values for the motors
Help would be much appropriated
