HQProp T3x2x3: The New GO TO for the Quadmula SF3! // 4K FPV Freestyle // MurdersFPV

[@JThemelis]

My F3 arrives today! Youve been on fire lately! I think I’m moving my daily drivers to Quadmula frames based on this content!

[@Swanky0rc]

Just placed an order through ur links for the f3 split, and for the Uv filter! Thank your videos! Love them. This will be my second drone after my Whoop! So excited!

[@slamcool]

this drone is great, the props are really great thanks!! I have been crashing it a few times; small branches and wires and it survived it with no scratches! But I'm tired of hitting those tiny invisible obstacles, my area is full of them so I'm ditching my analog setup for O3 ... you sold me on that. I'm getting the Quadmula brackets like you did :)

[@killarbeefpv2143]

Can't wait to try these out! I freaking love that quad..one of my favorite builds to date. 🔥🔥🤘🤘

[@remixatl]

I am notoriously hard to sell things too. Especially the new hotness. I also have been a hardcore analogue pilot for the past 8 years. I only just stumbled onto your channel about a year ago. But this SF3 series you have been doing SOLD me. I got the entire build the same way you did it, CLI dump and all. Cheers brother. Keep ripping. Check back for content with the new rig in a week.

[@demind12]

How much does it weigh? is it sub 250g?

[@dkerlee]

I have two five inch, and one 1.5, and a new mobula 8. I think a 3in is gonna be my next build! thanks. I'll check out the props too.

[@Atlas_FPV]

I have found the same with 3.5", the HQProp T3.5x2x3 is the best flying 3.5" prop and the most durable, the Gemfan 3520 snaps blades so easily!

[@josefdahari]

Killing it with the content homie keep up the amazing work!

[@MurdersFPV]

Thank you, brother. This was fun.

[@ExKn]

si there a way to hide the props from the screen? and maybe the carbon on top too?

[@MurdersFPV]

You could crop in the frame a bit if you want to remove the top plate. This is unstabilized footage on the highest FOV the DJI O3 system can do.

[@chrisbee5481]

What about the gemfan 3020. I tested both, and liked the gemfan more. HQ gave me some oszilations, where the gemfan were fine. Any comparion test?

[@MurdersFPV]

I haven't tested them yet but the performance is incredible with the HQProps and I'm still going on the same set. No weird oscillations. I'll have to give the 3020s from Gemfan a try.

[@Greg__K]

Do you have a preference between 3" and 3.5" for a sub 250 build? Any reason to go with a 3" over the slightly bigger 3.5"? Awesome piloting skills!

[@slamonfpv]

nice info and rip that lil fella is a beast 😤🤘

[@FERNANDOPR_FPV]

The HQProp T3x2x3, will work great with this motors: xing2 1404 4600KV?

[@MurdersFPV]

That should work. You may even want to try the T3x2.5x3 as well.

[@FERNANDOPR_FPV]

@@MurdersFPV mmm okey, interesting. I think I would try first the T3x2x3 and then T3x2.5x3 to see what's the best for me. Thank you!

[@vassilis331]

@MurdersFPV What about 3x3x3? I’m considering a similar build with 1804 t motors with the 5mm shaft

[@herokme0]

Any chance you're able to check if a skystar km55 55a esc would fit into the f3 split? dimensions are 35*47*6.5mm

[@n3n3_FPV]

Hey murders. I just bought everything to build the same SF3 as you. I was wondering if you could update de CLI link, because isnt working anymore. Love your style bro, Keep going!

[@MurdersFPV]

Updated, bro. That should work and thanks for the heads up.

[@tooksfpv]

Hi, can i use this quads CLI dump on a quadmula 4s (my first build 🙂)? I have the same fc. 👊

[@MurdersFPV]

You should be fine. I always recommend you do your first arm in a safe location and be ready to disarm if something isn't right. If you're hearing strange motor noises or your motors are hot when you land then try lowering the Master Multiplier slider a bit.

[@tooksfpv]

@@MurdersFPV Thanks a lot ! 👊

[@brianfreland9065]

Do you think 1404 4500kv motors would work on this build? I have a cinelog25 and the frame is busted so i wanted to convert it to a 3inch freestyle quad i just wasnt sure if it would be enough motor.

[@MurdersFPV]

I'm a pretty firm believer in the 1604+ size for 3". I would run 1404 motors on a 2.5". If you can hold off for a little later this month then I think you'll have a great option for your 1404 motors.

[@LowetheTechGuy]

That is awesome! I am trying to decide on HdZero or Dji. This is the same image you are seeing right? I got to build this.

[@MurdersFPV]

That's the 4k footage but it's honestly the same in the goggles. It is 1080p in the goggles.

[@realicetea]

Isn’t the trade with more durability with the impact on the actual motor. “Weaker” props act as the crush zone similar to a car but for the motor where the prop takes the impact

[@MurdersFPV]

Hmm, I don't think these props are durable enough to instead damage the motor. I think it's more that they can take an impact and maintain their shape better or at least not break or chip.

[@realicetea]

@@MurdersFPV cool thanks for the feedback. Will try them out after I get through my horde of 3016 gemfan :)

[@hallfatherofthree7022]

That's an awesome build. Very snappy and well tuned. The fact that your a great pilot makes it look really good too lol. I was wondering if there was a video setting that would show less props in view using the DJI 03 air module and the quadmula frame you are using?

[@MurdersFPV]

You could use Wide FOV which is still plenty of field of view instead of the Ultra FOV. Wide is much closer to the FOV of a GoPro Session 5.

[@hallfatherofthree7022]

@@MurdersFPV Sometime if you get a chance could you do a short video with the wide FOV so I can see how much props are showing? I'd like to do that build and be able to get props out of view. Don't mind cropping the video some in post if I need to. Awesome channel and awesome videos btw.

[@MurdersFPV]

@@hallfatherofthree7022 sure I'll get some footage with it.

[@Krumboh]

Hi, can I get some recommendations from your? I will choose your Quadmula SF3 build for my fist drone build ever (: So my first question would be when I dont aim for the taget to stay below 250g wich batterys would you recomend beside your choice of the GMB 380? (so i get a little more flight time) Next question would be here in Germany there are only HQProbs in the dimensions of T3x15x3 or T3x2,5x3 in stock so wich one would you choose? Last question what do you think of using walksnail insted of 03? And thanks for the great content i enjoy it alot, happy flying 🤘

[@MurdersFPV]

If you want to use Walksnail I'd say definitely go for it. GNB makes a HV light weight 660mah pack that would be great for more flight time. pyrodrone.com/collections/batteries/products/gaoneng-gnb-6s-660mah-90c-hv-li-po-battery-xt30 I would probably recommend the 3x1.5x3 but honestly get a set of both and test which you like better. The 3x2.5x3 will definitely be a lot more aggressive.

[@chesterlim15]

Looking to build one! Do you think a 35a ESC on a similar 6s build is enough?

[@MurdersFPV]

Nope. I struggle to keep 45A ESCs going on 6s at 2000+ KV.

[@herokme0]

what’s your thoughts on this quad running the 6s 380mah vs a “traditional” 4s setup? and have you tried 2004 3000kv for 6s, or do you like your pacer 1604 setup?

[@MurdersFPV]

I'm not a fan of 4s setups even on my 2.5". I only fly the 380mah packs on this build and I think it's great. I prefer the light weight and flight performance over the longer flight times. I think 1604 is as low as I would go for 3". I would go bigger on motors before going smaller.

[@herokme0]

@@MurdersFPV makes sense, i’ve only ever flown 6s (besides 1s whoops) so i feel like i’d like 6s on a 3”. do you feel a 35a esc would work on your motor + 6s setup? or would i need a 45a esc?

[@_.kvng.ky_1081]

What stick ends are you using?

[@deathrollfpv]

I love my sf3! But only getting about 2.5 min on the same gnb 380 also identical specs to your build, maybe it's the freezing weather up here in canadia.

[@MurdersFPV]

It's definitely the temperature. That was me too. Luckily it's getting warmer.

[@miguelvice]

Looking forward to trying them, but I am looking the Dal Cyclone T3028, a bit pitchy but still smooth and very durable.

[@MurdersFPV]

I tried those when I first built the SF3. They were okay but I was able to get a better tune out of the Gemfans. The quad is more responsive and has better prop wash handling. At least for the way I've built it.

[@miguelvice]

​@@MurdersFPV Yea, a lot smoother with the Gemfans but for heavier 3" rigs I like a bit more pitch in the prop, these HQ might be the way to go, I also belive Gemfan has a new prop put with a bit more pitch might need to see if it is durable or not.

[@mntlfpv]

my fave props for 3" are HQ V1S and GF Flash. There's no real high pitch offerings in t-mount outside of multi-blade cinwhoop props.

[@SkeezyFPV]

I’ve got a spare aio 45amp aio, xing2 1404 4600kv motors, and an 03 air unit from a pos frame I bought. Any way I could just put the octopus on the Quadmula F3 and just send it, bro? I hate to waste those motors :(

[@MurdersFPV]

It's worth a shot. You can get a BEC to power the O3.

[@SkeezyFPV]

@@MurdersFPV thanks for the response. I just watched a vid of a guy running them on an Apex 3”. I see no reason why it’s not worth a shot. I ended up cutting the cf prop guards off my Cine25 frame after they shattered on the first pack, flipped the motors right side up, and bottom mounted the lipo and it’s hella fun to fly. I’m starting to see cracks in the top plate (1.5mm cf 😡) where the rear arms go in and it’s not long for this world. Fortunately I didn’t trim the motor wires lol.

[@MurdersFPV]

@@SkeezyFPV actually wait if you're planning on running it on 3-4s then you can just power the O3 off VBATT. That's an option too.

[@SkeezyFPV]

@@MurdersFPV yeah I’m running 4s 850mAh and staying below 250g(ish). It’s now called the WarriorLife25 😂

[@SkeezyFPV]

@@MurdersFPV will it fit a 25x25 aio?

[@jscervideos]

Fire video! Ordered myself 10packs of those props! Could you share your tune please :)

[@MurdersFPV]

The link to my CLI dump is in the description.

[@Ingravidux]

💪🏻💯

[@jefffpv2759]

i like the 3x3x3

[@MurdersFPV]

I need to try those, I'm just worried a little about the efficiency. The packs I use for this build to keep it under 250g aren't the best on capacity. It's like searching for that perfect balance of performance + efficiency but keeping its sub two fiddy.

[@jefffpv2759]

@@MurdersFPV theyre not bad. my 3 inch weighs 341g with an 850 mah 4s. 4-5min of pushing it and 6- 6.5 min of cruising. i have gemfan hurricane 3016 and the hurricanes are about a minute less of flight time. they feel nice though.

[@hanamachi_press]

Bruh, what was that Drone-Jitsu cry you made at 7:57?! 😂… still wasn’t all that impressive 🤭. Btw, lemme get one of those UwU filters you were talkin’ bout

[@MurdersFPV]

Haha! I make so many weird noises while flying around. I'm sure anyone observing me who just happens to walk by probably thinks I'm a huge nerd. It's even more funny when I start to get into it I move my body with the drone movements looking like Ray Charles. 🤣😂😅

[@hanamachi_press]

@@MurdersFPV lord, not Ray Charles 🤣

[@Maxim_Nub]

i still dont know what should i take for my 3inch build, xing2 1404 4600kv or tmotor as yours but for 4s on 3850kv. drives me crazy haha. but thanks for the props test!! as i thought 1404 but with high kv will be better for that kind of sbang style that you have, but you manage to do it on lower torque motors and make it look so good lol, i love your style, so thinking to go with your suggested motors :D

[@JThemelis]

Im transferring my Apex 3” parts to a Siren F3 this week… 1404 4s always worked perfectly fine on the build, but i recently swapped those motors for 1506 and ooomg what a difference. Still running high kv on 4s and perfectly happy w my setup. Good luck!

[@Maxim_Nub]

@@JThemelis yeah if you switch from 1404 to 1504 with more or less same kv i can kind of estimate but here is a choice for me becuase these 1604 are kind of much less of kv than those 1404 :D

[@dennnuz]

Depends on the props. For me the f1404 4600kv work better with lower pitch props. For the p1604 3800kv on 4s i use the hq t3x2.5x3 or t3x3x3 otherwise it feels underpowered compared to the 1404

[@Maxim_Nub]

@@dennnuz so would oyu say 1404 4600kv are less dependent on props and in general give more power? i still dont know what to choose haha

[@dennnuz]

@@Maxim_Nub Because of the higher kv they have more power, but the bigger ones have more torque and can drive bigger or higher pitch props. I would say the 1404 is better overall: more efficient and lighter. But the 1604 might be more durable in crashes.

[@pxsaber2177]

For 3.5“ props Recursion Labs did a test with the 3.5x2.5x3 props. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYawqoKIitp4nsU They are more efficient, have higher thrust and are quieter than the lower pitch props. Maybe that applies for the 3“ props too! Might be worth a try!

[@MurdersFPV]

Thanks for the input. I'll definitely check it out.

[@fpvillain]

I’ll have to give them a try on mine! Those gaps! 🫣😅
