NewBeeDrone has gone brushless! These 0802 18000kv motors were tested and then selected from many different KV and size options to give you the best overall flying experience. With more punch and more top end than traditional brushed motors, these brushless motors bring everything to the next level.
These motors come with JST-1.0 plugs installed but also come with a set of Micro JST-1.25's. The BeeBrain Brushless uses Flight controller uses JST-1.0 plugs.
Can't really tell too much of a difference between these and the plaid 0802s, but I'm not super picky with my whoops and they both work well

0802 18000kv sits in the "sweet spot" for flight time and power. Too high KV and yeah it'll rip, but you'll be done in 2 mins. Too low and it will have longevity, but will put you to sleep and will be in the upper portion of throttle.
I'd say these are the best for 1s 31mm-40mm props for beginners. Haven't tried them with 1mm shaft 65mm props on a mosquito XL frame to say how they preform. But on a 40mm regular mosquito frame, they are a blast! Also super easy to swap FC and motors to either a 65mm or 75mm whoop frame.

Replaced 4 working EX0802 with these to find only 2 of the new gold motors working properly. 1 doesn't start half the time, the other doesn't work at all, and is way tighter / harder to spin by hand than the others. I've since replaced with Tiny Whoop motors, and oh wow look at them all work as they should. This is the 3rd time I've received faulty products in the few orders I've placed with NBD. This is the second time my emails and FB chats have been ignored by customer service on the replacement of these bad products. It's been a week and Dalton can't find the time to return a simple email about when replacements will be available or give a refund. Never again buying from NBD.
This was kind of a late night lark. I'd seen this upgrade for the Mk3 for a while and pondered whether it was a gimmick or not, and I'm pleased to say it's a genuinely good upgrade. It has reduced the noise of my Mk3 considerably. I haven't noted any significant increase in print quality, but the old drone of the bed is gone and that's completely worth it.
when i received mine the box and everything was not damaged but when i opened it the canopy was cracked and the VTX did not work when i tried my first battery. I'm alright with the vtx being DOA as all i really wanted was the motors and beeeye camara, But when i reached out to customer service i was blamed for crashing it (even tho i never flew it). beware the QC is total garbage. save your money and buy a Mobula6 from a reputable company like GetFPV for RDQ's. I wasn't going to write a review but after the email i received i don't want anyone else getting scammed.
I had a very personable experience shopping with my drone your team took the time to help me purchase exactly what I and also identified the additional accessories that I may need to purchase that way I would not have post purchase regret. I will definitely be shopping there again for more flight systems and accessories.
An absolute pleasure to fly. Handles incredibly well and responds to any input just as I expected.
The only criticism is not of the performance of the drone. Unfortunately, it arrived with damage to the canopy. But I was still able to fly it and make initial observations.
