Introduction:

I wanted to try the next size up in motors (1104s) to see if it would have more power and better control.

Components:

  • Eaglepower SA1104 7000kv motors with Gemfan 3025 props
  • Eachine TX06 AIO camera
  • Teeny F4 pro FC
  • Super S 2s ESC (?)
  • Buzzer
  • Frsky receiver D8
  • Newt Frame
  • Betafpv canopy

Conclusion:

The dry weight came to 48g. Will need to see how it performs.

Update 7/18/19 - so I broke the frame (snapped the arm) on its maiden flight. Bummer, but I did get a good feel on the control in the 1 min I had. It feels close to the eaglepower 1103 10000kvs. Basically, very smooth control on the top half of the stick and not so much on the bottom half. The Amax motors are better because they have good control all the way through.

Update 11/26/19 - after some batting cage practice, I had to swap out the frame and receiver. I also changed over to the Gemfan 3018 props. It flies a lot better with much more precise control. These motors are still not as good as the LDARC 1104 7500kvs though, but they do suck fewer amps.

Update 12/1/19 - I tried the Gemfan 3016-3 on this and didn't really like them. They were a lot more amp hungry than the 3018 bi blades.
