I came across a YouTube video of a QAV250 build. He had some unique points on his build. Below is a link to that video. You may have the same ideas and/or experiences as he does. I like what he did and I’d like to talk to you more about a build and what parts to use. I’m looking to do a more quality build.

I like what Flohio has to say in this video. (he did a great job with it by the way)

I know that he is running these 2000v motors on 4S and while they will do it, it will shorten their life and void all manufacturer warranty. Lumenier does not recommend the 4S setup. I think that these motors are better for a 4S setup then the others such as Cobra Motors or SunnySky Motors, because of their beef. (They have larger magnets and stators then the others)

There are many factors to consider when building up these quads, I have found that I change my setup weekly to test out new parts and configurations. You might have to try that to find what is best for you.

I think that if you are going to run 3s, you should run a 2300KV motor, and if you are going to run 4s, you should run a 2000KV motor.

I know that FLoHio thinks that the G10 Version of the QAV250 is too heavy, but the carbon fiber version negates that.

I think that an optimal setup for the QAV250 is as follows:
BEGINNER:
G10 QAV250 Frame

These are all open to opinion though, and as such, others may have other ideas about it. Hopefully they will chime in.
