Sorry for the really novice question. I'm contemplating my very first build of a small mulitrotor to get a sense of all that is involved in owning, maintaining, and enjoying one of these. I will be building mine from scratch as it will probably be a slow process due to lack of funds.
I've been doing a lot of reading here over the past month or so (I know, not very long) and one of my first problems is figuring out the differences in motors. I see most people refer to motors by what I assume is a model number, but there are so many. Is there some kind of code or do the numbers mean anything, or are they just the number the manufacture puts on them? Is there any standarization to these numbers? Is there a guide somewhere that I haven't found yet that can help me select the right motor for what I want to do?
My long term goal for my second build is to have a heavy lift, self built multi sometime next year- hope that's not too ambitious.
