Type H motors on a Q500 ?

[Calvin]

Does anybody know if the "H" motors with the quick release props will bolt up to a Q500 ?

Are the props the same size & pitch?

 

[DoomMeister]

Not even close.

Would the Q500 4k ESC's be able to handle the H motors ok?

Are they the same diameter?

The bolt pattern may be different enough to be able to fabricate an adapter,

The props for the Q500 are in plentiful supply and available at several sources. The props for the Typhoon H are smaller and different pitch than the Q500 props. The motors for the Q500 and the Typhoon are physically and electrically different. You don’t have access to the parameters (PID settings) that allow the flight controller to fly the aircraft without burning up the motors or ESC’s.

If you really want to build your own you should explore the world of FPV racers. The software and firmware are mostly open source and not locked up the way Yuneec and other off the shelf drone systems are. A little reading on the subject will let you know you can’t just bolt a new motor and prop on a frame and expect it to work.

Thanks for the replies DM, it was just an idea for a bit of time saving in set up, thought it would be kinda different.

something to discuss on a rainy day,,,,
