If you are curious what motors and propellers will give you the best performance for your micro quad, QX90, or any other multirotor that uses 8.5X20 brushed motors I have done some testing to compare the thrust output differences between the stock QX90, Hubsan X4, and SpinTech motors. To spice things up I even bring in some popular propellers for these micro-sized motors. I test the stock QX90 propellers are the same as the Hubsan X4 , Ladybird, and the Parrot Rolling Spider. To get consistent results in my testing I use EZ-GUI on my phone to communicate through a USB OTG cable with the F3 Evo Micro flight controller. This way I can be certain that I am getting full power to the motor that is mounted in the test stand. I designed and 3D printed the test stand so I could take consistent repeatable data. I also show you how to make and use this DIY 3D printed fixture. I am careful to only used batteries that are at 4.2V for every motor run to give accurate comparable data. Now if I could only fit these Spintech motors swinging parrot props into a Tiny Whoop that would be awesome!
