Looking at a 250 quad

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Tue Jan 20, 2015 2:24 pm

Been looking around and have spotted a pretty reasonable deal on a full setup but thought I would ask you guys opinion,

I'm looking at the Emax nighthawk 250 kit with Emax 2204-2850 motors, carbon 6030 props, Emax simon k 12a esc's, and CC3d board

Look forward to your opinions, may be a few weeks before I order but it's looking good at the moment

That should be a blast with those motors.

Come on Kev you know you want to step over to the dark side.

Yeah I have been toying with the idea for a while, if my BeastX goes it will prob be a defo on the quad

It would be a fair while before I get it FPV but that would be my aim,

These things are built for FPV.
It is very difficult to see the orientation of these at any sort of distance.
Are those motors 2850kv?
Make sure they will run on 3s, that may be geared towards a 2s setup.
Dunno about 6" props on such a high kv motor.
Post us a link so we can have a good look at it.

My bad looked at so many but they are actually 2300kv

Yeah seen that one but its on the 1806 motors not the 2204's, and quadcopters.co.uk has been around for a while, I like having a bit of security, for returns possible problems

Looks like a great kit Kev.
I just ordered another RCX kit for a friend, so ordered enough parts to build a second one if anyones interested.

You will love it, once you get the fpv gear Kev.

It has absolutely blown my mind.
