Hi guys! I need some help for my new quadcopter

Frame Dji F450
Flight controller APM 2.8 + gps
Esc Hobbywing xrotor 20A
Gimbal storm32
Camera xiaomi yi
Retractable landing gear

It's mainly for aerial photography

My problem was with the motors I have to buy..

Which of this two is better in terms of performance and long flight time?

DJI E310 is cheaper (60 euros for 4 motors ) and sunnysky has minor KV ( I was thinking to buy 800kv or 650kv ) and are around 100 euros..less KV means bigger props and more weight ( camera, gimbal, retractable gear, fpv system)..but maybe the dji motor should be sufficient for the same purpose..

Thank you!

We don't have a lot of DJI guys around here, but I do have a beater f550 for testing conditions etc. With APM and landing gear.

The DJI motors are pretty weak.. Barely able to carry battery and landing gear, a small dome etc.

Id suggest you get your weights calculated carefully and log onto eCalc and try different motors till you see ones that work. eCalc will save you time and money.

Or find a build thread of a craft that works for your needs and copy it ;)
