MEPS SZ1804: FPV motors for 3-3.5″ drones

MEPS SZ1804
The Space SZ1804 are the third MEPS FPV motors reviewed on FirstQuadcopter. While the previous models were for 5" drones, these 1804 are designed specifically for 3-3.5" Cinewhoop drones, which are favored for their compact size, agility, and ability to navigate tight spaces. When it comes to drone performance, especially in the realms of racing, freestyling, and filmmaking, brushless motors...

When creating the shopping list for your...

Skystars Koko 2207 1950Kv: Racing and freestyle FPV motor for 5″ drones

SkyStars KOKO 2207 1950KV motors
I received these Koko 2207 motors and a SKYSTARS F722HD flight stack two years ago, but somehow I forgot to review them. The motors have 16x16mm and can be installed on most 5-5.5" FPV frames, regardless of design and type. The Skystars Koko 2207 motors have four KV options (1750KV, 1950KV, 2550KV, and 2750KV) and are suitable for racing and...

MEPS SZ2207: Are these FPV motors better than company’s reputation?

MEPS Space SZ2207 motor
The SZ2207 will be the second FPV motor from MEPS reviewed here on FirstQuadcopter. Both motors are intended for 5-6" racing drones. While the SZ2306's stator has 23mm width and 6mm height, the SZ2207's stator is 22 mm/7 mm. The 2207 has a narrower stator width, so you can expect lighter rotational inertia that allows for faster RPM changes,...

LN-motor FS2812 and FS2306 brushless motors for FPV drones

LM-Motor FS2306 and FS2812
Commonly, the product name of FPV motors is formed by a group of two numbers. The first one refers to the dimensions of the motor and the second one to the speed of the motor. Brushless motors have two main parts: the rotor with permanent magnets and the stator with copper coils. After learning to decipher the numbers on...

As...

BetaFPV 1506 3000KV motor review: Perfect for CineWhoops

BetaFPV 1506 3000KV motors
A few months ago, I tested the BetaFPV Pavo 30, a very capable CineWhoop. Unfortunately, I needed to replace the flight controller and two of the motors due to an accident. While the stock motors were 3400KV, I found as a replacement only these BetaFPV 1506 3000KV ones. Brushless motors in the drone world are marked with a 4- digit...
