I just started to experiment with 0705 sized motors as I got some nice motors from boldclash. They came with a fishpepper.de logo *wohooo* This is great news, having motors with my own logo means I can now fly like a pro or better *cough* Well… certainly not…
I hacked together a quick test frame (83mm diagonal) for 0703 or 0705 sized motors with three mounting holes. It is meant for a tinyFISH fc / tinyPEPPER2S stack with 16x16mm hole to hole spacing and 56mm props. The frame features two rubber band “hooks” that facilitate a low cost and low weight battery mount. Make sure to add some sticky foam to cover the screw heads.
Shopping list:
- tinyFISH FC clone (see this page for places to buy)
- tinyPEPPER 2S ESC from furiousFPV
- 4x 0705 motors (not sure about the KV yet)
- a set of 56mm props (e.g. JJRC-1000)
- pepperFIISH 83/0705 frame
- VM275 cam/vtx combo
- Turnigy nano 2S 300mAh
- 3d printed camera mount
- zip tie as rollover cage
- some M2 nylon screws
- some sticky foam
- some rubber bands as battery “strap”
My test setup weights 40.5g including all fpv gear and the battery. Not that bad đŸ™‚ I am still not sure which KV to use on those motors… I have not yet test flown this setup.
You can find the frame ready to order on armattan: pepperFIISH 2S 0705. If you prefer cutting it on your own you can grab the source and DXF files from my github repository.
Heya – since it’s been a while, can you give an update on your thoughts of the 70x motors vs 1103? Especially on 2s?
Not yet. From what I have heared all those 070x seem to have some vibration issues. This is not surprising as they all use brass bearings instead of ball bearings :-\
Any news about the kV of the motors
Which flight time you have?
Wow!! fishpepper logo? where can I buy it? I like the black color ;D
I have no idea if this is meant to be a real product or was just sent to me as a gift :-\
However you can buy the normal boldclash motors on tmart: http://www.tmart.com/sl/592dcc6b7d86d
Boldclash are embracing your designs I think, they are producing a number of motors at that sort of size,
Btw I tested their FC ESC stack today and it worked properly on a fully charged lipo.
They give credit to you and link here, I know they would be interested in your 2s 4in1 ESC if you want another partner, but I don’t know how your feel about it….
They seem to be a reputable company anyway, been going a while.
Looks great! That said, doesn’t it have the potential to be even lighter? The Hoverbot Nano weighs the same and comes with bigger gear and even prop guards:

The hoverbot weights 40g without the battery! My pepperFIISH weights 24g without battery and 40g including the battery đŸ˜‰
So that’s a huge difference…
OH!!!! That’s awesome! Please excuse my ignorance đŸ™‚
