Motor/esc combos

[fotophanatic]

Well I think I'm done with xaircraft. Lost 2 motors and 2 esc's and can't get XA to do anything. Jeffery @ xaircraft USA has had my gps/autopilot for weeks now and looks like he has forgotten how to respond to emails and phone messages so I'm done with them. That being said, I have a 600mm quad that I have custom built myself and am needing a good motor and esc combo for it. Any suggestions? Need to stay relatively inexpensive for the moment until my income catches up to my outgoing! Thanks for all the help. You all rock!

I have read about some good results with the T-Motors and ESC's. They are also fairly inexpensive. I am about to embark on building an FPV rig and am considering these motors.

I recently got some AXI motors to haul around a T2i and while I would not call them inexpensive, I would certainly call them "very very nice" in my best Borat accent.

For a 450-550 quad or a hexa, a nice combination is the MT2216-900Kv and 30A Tiger ESC's. On my Hexa 650 I am using MT2814-11

I've been very pleased with the Avroto 2814-11S & DJI 30A ESCs used on my Naza-controlled hexa. For me, the DJI ESCs are a no-brainer for use on a DJI-controlled system. They-re made to work with the FC and require no programming or cutting of the red wire.

I use RC-Timer 3536-11 with replacement bearing on our X-8. This particular RC-Timer motor is quite good and quite powerful. The weakness is the bearings so we replace them. We have hundreds of flights with no issues. I recommend these bearings...
