Welcome to the forums, nice to see the growing user base. What do you know about your motors, do they say a number then KV anywhere? Also what size are the props. Also can you add a picture of the motors?

Thanks for repy
by the way there is nothing written on my motors and my props are of 14 cm. is there any chance of my quadcopter to hover ??? .. here are some of my motor pics please help

That is what I thought you had. Sadly those won't run a muti-rotor. Their weight is too high for their lack of RPMs. With no electronics except the motor (no battery) they would not fly.

Take a look at this link. Your project may not be dead yet. A guy on youtube used small brushed motors similar to what you have to test it.


Take a look at this project. You may but these small cheap motors to make a really cheap quadcopter.

Thank God I DIDN'T install any motors yet but now question is where can i get those motors shown in the site you mentioned and what will they cost to me. can i increase the rpm and torque of motors that i already have by increasing the current supply or some other way. is there any cheap solution. please help and thanks again for reply

First off, what do you plan to do with this quadcopter, FPV or something light weight? How much experience do you have soldering, etching PCB and what not?

 

[GJH105775]

If you are doing something small you can use these cheap motors. If you plan to do a bigger quadcopter 10'' here are some budget motors. Here is a dirt cheap FC. If you plan on doing a REALLY light mutirotor then here is another. If you plan on doing something like the link from hackaday then here is a set of 4 for $14

I just want my quadcopter to hover thats it... i dont want FPV or rc but i cant purchase those motor not even that one of $ 14. i think i should drop my project or try opening shell of my motor and making it less heavier
can i try mounting this

 

[GJH105775]

You can make it a little lighter maybe, but I don't believe enough lighter. If you make it gear driven it might work, but you'd have to find the gears for the chance of it to work. If you have an old VCR they are full of goodies in the way of gears and whatnot. I forget where but I say where someone used one brushed motor to control 4 props. Take a look at the link the video below. If you can pull some smaller motors like in the video from some junk stuff you might be able to do that.
