Title: Can I use gear motors of 1000rpm for my quadcopter?
Post by: ANUJ9 on March 13, 2013, 05:05:51 PM
I am trying to build a quadcopter and the budget is stingy, i was hoping to use gear motors of 1000rpm instead of brushless motor which are costly, will I be able to use them?

I dont think they can generate enough thrust with respect to its weight...
I have tried using a normal 12v brushed motor with mannual gearbox with a 1047 prop..
Not more than 300-400gm thrust with 3s lipo.. :(
whole system weighs 57gms also.. :(

1. 6ch Remote control is costing approx 4k in all the Rc shops.
2. brushless motors around 3.5k
3. ESC around 3.5k
4. Flight control circuit 2.5 -3k
5. lipo battery with charger 4 k

@Anuj- all your price stats are wrong!
1- 6 Channel TX/RX- 2.1K
2- ESC 25amp *4- 2.2K
3- Brushless Motors- 1.5 - 2.2K
4- Flight Controller- 1.2k - 2k
5- Lipo pack(2200mAh 3S 20C) - 800 bucks + charger - 1K

total- approx- 8.5K
