PyroDrone Hyperlite 1106 5122kv

Tested KV:5122kv
Weight:7g
Stator W:11mm
Stator H:6mm

A disappointing showing, not having any better construction than the 7122kv version that suffers from low efficiency.  Probably down 10-15% efficiency and with a little less torque compared to other motors in this class. As a plus it doesn't seem to be affected as badly by heat at high loads, but that's probably not enough to make up for its lack of torque.

In terms of prop loading it seems to match pretty well with light 2" loads, unlike most other motors of this size, a 2.5" prop load probably falling right into the ideal zone in most flight situations.  Light 3" loads are starting to fall out of it's ideal efficiency zone and heavier loads that than rapidly start dropping off below 50% efficiency.
