KIT-HGDRONEK66 different motors

[rubenS]

Hi, I recently bought the KIT-HGDRONEK66 and I wanted to build it following the gitbook. In the gitbook they use BLDC brushless motors 2212 920 kV but in my package there are flycat i-rotor 5010-750kv.

I couldn't find any website where these motors are in this kit.

Did I get the wrong motors or do these also work? The packing list says that I've got the right motors.

Lucky you! You got a kit with the new motors / bigger propellers that have better performance. We have not updated our gitbook yet. Sorry for that.

[rubenS]

ok thank you. 

Is it necessary to wait for the gitbook or is it more or less the same?

[GeraldP]

Mounting and connection to ESC's is the same. Also motor spin direction is the same.

I got the same motors but was given 4 counterclockwise threaded propeller hubs instead of the 2 counter and 2 clockwise. Was that a mistake in packaging or am I missing something?

Hi @PGB123 @GeraldP 

I got the same motors that look all counter clock wise. Did you figure out how to make 2 of them clockwise?

Cheers,

The motors are now all CCW (same direction) threads. Just ensure they are tightened well so they don't unscrew.

Thanks Iain.

I am putting your comments from a different thread here for others  who have the same questions.

"They SPIN CW and CCW, but the screw thread is all in one direction.

The rotation direction is controlled CW/CCW by swapping any two of the three wires."

Cheers,
