(This is part of a multi-part series on building a FPV mini 240mm quadcopter)
Now that the FPV mini quadcopter frame has been selected we need some motors to make it fly. For that, I’ve selected 4 SunnySky X2204S 2300kv motors ($23ea). It was between these or the Tiger’s MN1806 2300kv, but paying $43 each for the Tigers would take this copter out of budget (which is going overboard already) — plus, I like the look of the SunnySky’s.
A little side note, when building a quadcopter there is little instant gratification as you will typically have to wait weeks, if not months, to get all the parts from the different suppliers you will need to order from.
Motor Specs:
- Long-life Japanese NMB ball bearings.
- Efficient Japanese Kawasaki stator steel
- Rare earth magnets stable up to 180℃
- Oxygen free pure copper wires
- CNC machined aluminum case

Weight: 22.8 x 4 = 91.2g

Total Spent So Far: $433.09
The motors are available from Quadrysteria.com.

Hi,
There's no contact email to be found on site so I guess this is the only way to leave a message then.
Would you like to receive some electronic components, from well-established brands, for reviews or to use for your own project?
If you are interested in this kind of collaboration, please get back to me via email.
Cheers.
Hi Hong!
