How to tell how quality a motor is????

[windbreakaerialvideo]

I need semi high quality motors for a 450 mm acro line of sigh quad (carbon fiber ) that is about 150 grams. I'm using a naze32 and spectrum race receiver. I need motors that are somewhat high quality but not over 20 dollars each. They need to have high torque and pretty high speed, how do I find a motor like this and what are some suggestions.

Highest quality is probably T motor. Good luck on getting them < $20.

A 450mm acro quad will probably be spinning 8" props on 4S with 1000kv motors. Even SunnySky motors at 1000kv are $25 or more.

I think you will likely end up here:

IMO a large acro quad is going to be heavy in a crash and expensive to repair. Crashing these costs a max of < $50. Crashing and ruining 4 T motors is a $200 hit to the wallet.

I have been running SunnySky x2212 980KV on my 450. No issues. BuddyRC has them for $12 each right now.

Buddy has pretty good variety of the SunnySky motors at reasonable prices. Never had a problem with them.

OOooh good find LB. The lowest I found at Buddy for a 1000kv was $26.

I have several SunnySky 2204s in 2300kv from BuddyRC and have had good luck with them.

Thanks, very helpful. Do u happen to know how many magnets these have, and what battery would u reccomend

my frame is not very big, and very light, more like a race quad than anything

The motors I linked to above at BuddyRC would probably be a good fit for that frame.

Opps

Thought it was a 250mm, sorry.

Buddy RC now has the SunnySky 2207 2700kv monsters for under $10.

I know that's not what windbreakaerial is looking for exactly, just thought I'd mention the great deal.

Im pretty sure the kv is too high on those
