[Teco]

Hello folks. Here's another build thread. I wanted something more powerful for may camera gear so ordered a New Carbom Core Octo 1000 , Just received today, Thanks CC, (CC don't answer my calls, i had a few question, tried for 4 days and nothing, even my Emails, ) Any ways folks, this thing looks nice. So far i have:> CarbonCore Octo 1000mm 8x Avroto M2814-11S DJI Wookong 8x DJI 30A ESC 8x Gemfan Hobby Hand Balanced Carbon Fiber Props 11"x5" RC-drones.com power distribution board RC-Drones accessory plate EC5 female to 2x EC5 males adapter (to use 2 batteries) I don't know yet which battery should I buy. I need any advice and help that i can get, anything will be welcome Thanks Teco

IMHO 2814's are too small for a heli that large. You will be limited to a 1.5-2lb camera. If i had a frame that big i would be on 6s with 3515's and 14" prop minimum. Thats the whole point in having a large frame, so you can swing larger props. Then again, maybe a 1000mm isnt even big enough for 15's, not sure.

well, the reason i went with that set up it was because RC drone build the same set up,, I thought the same, goes with 6s, but i already had 6 2814's brand new, just ordered 2 more and fly, 8 770 KV won't be enough?

it just depends what you want to lift. That will be more than enough for the standard gimbal, gh2/3, t2i,nex,cx760 type camera. but even a dslr with a nice lens with a av200/360 can start weighing a lot. Plus, those graupners dont make a lot of lift at all. they are just really nice props out of the box. You are better off with APC SF 12x3.8 or equivalent. IMO 14" SF are too big for 2814's.

I believe IrisAerial is correct, your original choice was way too small for anything practical, payload wise. In the new list I'd do the 4014s, for certain. With a 400 Kv wind, they're perfect for 6 cell packs and turning 14s or 15s. With the large armatures, they're probably a higher pole count than the little ones, too. Makes for much smoother power at a lower RPM for big props and heavy loads. For instance, I'm working on a 1M frame at present, and have 4822s with 21 poles and a 360Kv wind specified. Should pull like a train. I'd guess the 30A ESCs are fine. If you have doubts, set up one motor with prop, ESC, battery, and shoot some curves.

Got my T-motors yesterday guys, it is a little fat than the avroto motor. i like so far. I'm still open for advice in which ESC should i get , i was think about the MAYTECH MT40A-OPTO- V1, 40A. what do you guys think? teco
