Introduction:
Exploring unconventional FPV drone setups, we conducted experiments mixing different motor models on a single drone, starting with MEPS SZ2207 motors and introducing variations like SZ2306 and SZ2806.5 motors. This exploration aimed to understand how mixed motor configurations affect drone performance, revealing both potential and limitations. Our findings highlight the versatility and robustness of MEPS motors, encouraging FPV pilots to experiment beyond traditional setups.
- Experiment Goal: To test different motor mixes on FPV drones, challenging the norm of using four identical motors.
- Standard Setup: Started with a drone equipped with four MEPS SZ2207 1950KV motors.
- Mixing Motors: Experimented with a mix of SZ2207 and SZ2306 motors, then tried diverse KVs and sizes, including SZ2806.5 with 2207s.
- Findings: The experiment offered insights into mixed motor setups, maintaining high performance with MEPS motors in various configurations.
- Community Impact: Encourages FPV pilots to experiment with their setups and share their experiences.

Video Overview
Whether you’re just starting out or you’re a seasoned FPV pilot, the conventional wisdom has always been to equip your drone with four identical motors. This standard approach guarantees stable flight dynamics, ensuring that your drone performs predictably and efficiently. However, the intriguing question that lingers in the mind of many FPV enthusiasts is: What would happen if you mixed different models of motors on a single drone? Surprisingly, this is a path less traveled, until now.
Our Groundbreaking Test: Diverse Motors, One FPV Drone
In our quest for knowledge and the spirit of experimentation, we decided to take the plunge and explore the untested waters of mixing various motor models on one FPV drone. For those who are curious but hesitant to conduct such tests themselves, we invite you to follow our journey closely. By subscribing to our channel and liking this video, you’re in for a unique exploration of FPV dynamics with our diverse MEPS motors.
The Baseline: A Standard FPV Quadcopter
Our experiment begins with a standard FPV quadcopter equipped with four identical motors – the MEPS SZ2207 1950KV, known for its fluorescent green color and exquisite design. These motors are renowned for their speed, agility, and reliability, making them a favorite among FPV enthusiasts and professional pilots alike. With their unmatched thrust and efficiency, they set the stage for our experiment’s baseline performance.
Mixing Models: SZ2207 Meets SZ2306
Next, we introduce another 5-inch FPV quadcopter setup, blending two SZ2207 motors with two SZ2306 motors. These models are among the most popular for 5-inch FPVs and have minimal differences between them. The anticipation builds as we explore how this combination performs in flight, providing valuable insights into the potential of mixed motor configurations.
The Ultimate Challenge: Incorporating Diverse KVs and Sizes
As we progress, our experiment delves into even more daring territory by mixing 2207 motors of different KVs and ultimately pairing the formidable SZ2806.5 motors with 2207s. This combination represents the epitome of our exploration, a true test of how diverse motor setups can influence drone performance.
Conclusion: The Results of Our Unprecedented Journey
Through our series of tests – from mixing slightly different models and KVs to combining significantly varied motor sizes – we’ve charted new territory in FPV drone experimentation. While not all attempts were successful, the performance of MEPS motors remained consistently impressive.
This exploration was conducted in the spirit of fun and curiosity, for the benefit of all pilots intrigued by the possibilities of mixed motor setups. If this video sparked your interest, please like, share with friends, and subscribe to our channel for more innovative content.
