Rare in the hobby does a single product launch usher in the beginning of a new era. \u00a0But the Brother Hobby Avenger 1507 motor<\/a> is one of those. Three inch quads once one of the most popular sizes in the hobby eventually fell to the wayside once the popularity exploded in full size quad racing and freestyle, in combination with the explosion in popularity of Tiny Whoops.<\/p>\n Today, three inch quads are going through a popularity renaissance. This is largely in part to a new line of stacks and motors that have hit the market.\u00a0 In addition, new regulation and weight restrictions around the globe have added to the formation of the perfect storm for micros.\u00a0 The leader of this renaissance that has emerged is the Brother Hobby 1507 Avenger motor.[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2792″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]History of the 3\u201d quad<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Now in the past 3\u201d quads were done using 1306 and eventually 1407 motors. \u00a0\u00a0I flew several of these over a year ago, and while they had good speed, they just didn\u2019t fly very similarly to their full size counterparts.<\/p>\n Enter the Brother Hobby Avenger motor at a new size of 1507, this creates a substantial boost in power at a nominal increase in weight. \u00a0This is the missing link that makes 3\u201d quads come alive.<\/p>\n This motor should also have plenty of power to use on a 4\u201d and if you were one of those ultralight people building 165g 1407\u201d motored 5\u201d quads last year, this motor may just be what you are looking for.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2805″ img_size=”large” onclick=”link_image”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n 1106 size motors on a 3″ vs 1507 size motors on a 3″<\/em><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The Brother Hobby 1507 Avenger motor adds no frills of fancy colors, its color a very serious black and dark gray colors give an aggressive combination that lets you know that it means business. \u00a0The Shiny metallic lettering emblazoned outside its mighty stator gives just the right amount of flash while maintaining it\u2019s down to business aesthetics.\u00a0 Instantly recognizable as it is, it is inside that makes it such an incredible performing motor. \u00a0The new size on the market of 15mm in diameter by 7mm tall, allows your micro motors to reach new heights of unrealized levels of performance previously only known to larger builds.<\/p>\n These motors are the missing link that finally makes a\u00a0 smaller size 3″ prop, and allow it to fly much more like a 5″.\u00a0 Not just in terms of speed. Raw speed a 1407 could provide, but these motors provide the lift needed to maintain control at low throttle.\u00a0 In other words, your micro 4s build will finally not fall like a brick as soon as you let off the throttle. Combine that with the lightweight\u00a0 of one of these micros builds.\u00a0 You can now have massive performance in a small enough package for unparalleled proximity flight.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]One amazingly unique feature about the Brother Hobby avenger is that it has DUAL mounting patterns on the bottom. \u00a0This means that it can be easily be mounted to both Micro sized m2 hole frames and full size M3 size hole bolt pattern frames. \u00a0This is a first I believe for the hobby, and the versatility it adds to people who want to build up the ultimate micro or an ultralight 4\u201d is outstanding.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2795″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Unlike some other micro sized motors, the 1507 uses a full size m5 prop not. \u00a0I really like this feature because it makes for changing props faster and easier and if you fly full size 5\u201d quads you already have multiple prop tools available both at home and in the field.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Compare the size of a 1507 motor vs 2205 motor vs 2405 motor[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2800″ img_size=”large” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I have flown many micros 2\u201d, 2.5\u201d and 3\u201d and my recommendation for the best performance \/weight ratio on a 3\u201d with these 1507 Brother Hobby Avenger motors is 135-155 grams.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\nEnter the Avenger<\/h3>\n
