Size and Weight consideration
If you play outdoor, your flyng rc model must be resistant to the wind.
- the heavier the better - more momentum and inertia
- the smaller the better - less exposed surface to wind
Outdoor
typical outdoor beginer multirotor is build as Quad from 8″ prop and 1100kv motor up to 10″ prop with the 900kv. Both of 2 combinations lift easily a payload up to 300g. You’ll have a 10-25 minutes flight time with a lipo battery of 2-3S and 2000-3300mAh depending of the payload.
Indoor
typical indoor beginer multirotor is build with 5" props up to 6"
