===== Walkera Ladybird silverxxxed =====

I digged out that little guy. He was only sitting around, because binding with the TX was always luck-dependant. Perhaps a broken layer on the FC?

Anyway, I had to resurrect him!

  * Weight is 25g without battery
  * Flight time with a little weak 333mAh mylipos amazing 7 minutes!
  * Motors 7×20

...but that is not an original propeller, is it? So let's remove the Canopy!

A red board? Yeah! I added a H101 FC to it!

I had to cut down the edges to fit under the Canpy. That causes losing the LEDs.
But not a big deal: Stock   FC also has a small LED on the top of the Board only...

OK, the Cap is a little large, but was the only one with enough capacity I had laying around... Doesn't
matter, It's not that heavy...

2mm Goldies for better Battery connection and more "punch". Unfortunately my batteries got weak a little

I let him the stock 7x20 motors. They are already run for several hours, but doing full and half flips is
not a problem, also flying inverted is very cool as because of the heavy motors far away from center, It
flies a bit more chilled. That is cruising

==== Update: ====

I recently exchanged the stock ladybird motors with some [[https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100-Original-Motor-4pcs-SYMA-X5C-X5C-1-X5-Motor-Engine-AB-with-Wheel-Gear-for/32504369804.html?spm=2114.30010308.3.54.Fu2cHj&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10065_10068_10000007_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10060_10061_10062_10056_10055_10037_10054_10033_10059_10032_10099_10078_10079_10077_10073_10097_10100_10096_10070_10052_10050_424_10051,searchweb201603_1&btsid=4a691f73-47a1-4405-989a-1135cbda0246|Syma X5C]] motors. They stay direct driven, The shaft is 1mm, the Pinion can easily be removed using a tweezer or something. Furthermore, I use [[https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Hot-XK-X100-RC-Quadcopter-Spare-Parts-Propeller-2CW-2CCW-For-RC-Quadcopter-Camera-Drone-Accessories/32696860897.html?spm=2114.30010308.3.1.Z0GSXN&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10065_10068_10000007_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10060_10061_10062_10056_10055_10037_10054_10033_10059_10032_10099_10078_10079_10077_10073_10097_10100_10096_10070_10052_10050_424_10051,searchweb201603_1&btsid=a7a00757-8ca5-4672-808d-bb20698e0b1b|XK X100 propellers]] for 3D, they push 90Gramms all together with a 260mAh battery.

With stock Ladybird props, I get over 110g of thrust, that's around 3.5 thrust/weight ratio!
