Hi,
Newbie here...
Need help selecting motors for a DIY drone weighing ~ 2500 grams!
Bought propulsion system before i knew the drone's flight weight and as result the drone is greatly under powered and won't lift off. I can change the ESCs, motors & props (anything up to 12" props) but i can't change the battery from 3S Lipo because of space constraints.
Can anyone recommend a couple of motor/prop configurations capable of lifting ~ 2500 grams quad?
Can whatever motor/prop combo you recommend work w my existing DJI 420S ESCs or will i need to buy new ESCs as well?
Let me know if you need more information. Thanks in advance!
