Hacker A30-10XL or Hyperion 3025-10 ?

[Helder22]

Im about to order a motor for the Lepton. The specs on these two motors are practically identical. Does one have an edge over the other on 4s?
The Hacker weighs just a tad less.
The hacker KV is 900 and the Hyperion is 815
Anyone?

Hyperion underrates their motor's kV ratings. I would get the hyperion just becuase I like the blue can, and it matches the nice blue rotorhead.

I don't think you can go wrong with either one, I have the same hacker in my lepton on 4S and it is awsome. I don't have any experience with the hyperion but from all the posts on this site it is also a good choice. so I guess it depends on which one you can get easier and cost.

[Helder22]

I had my mind pretty much set on the Hacker because the hacker has a fan but now the hyperion seems to have a fan too so ... hmmmm

If you want the hyperion 3025-10 I have it for sale in the electronics section.

[Helder22]

Yes I saw it. Do you have the fan for it?

[ckoelliker]

How are Ya'll mounting the hyperion? They have four holes but do not line up with the lepton's mounting plate. Any suggestions?

I think most are mounting with only 2 securing screws corner to corner, but i could be wrong. I am uing a Hacker A30-10XL and i managed to get all 4 securing screws in, removing tail belt pulleys on side frames to make access easier.

I just noticed somthing I didn't know previously. There are 2 versions of the 3025 a Z3025 and a H3025. The mounting holes and "end bells" are different. Also the H3025 seems to come with a fan on the shaft. I get the feeling the H version is also lighter but I have not looked into it.

[ckoelliker]

Mine has a fan but is marked z3025. I bought it used and do not know if the fan was added later.

[Helder22]

The H seems to be the Heli version (duh, hehe) . It doesnt have that long nosecone shape and will sit completely inside the frame like the hacker motor. I guess that is a good thing. Keeps the motor nice and safe in case of a real hard "landing".

Hmmmm now the Hyperion and the Hacker not only have the same specs, but they bot have the same shape and a fan as well. Starting to sound like they are the same motor to me.

I got the Heli version and mounted it with four bolts no problems

[ckoelliker]

Were the bolt 90 degrees in relation to each other? Do they make a square or a parallelagram?

[toyturbo]

The new H-version of the hyperion motors were specifically developed to bolt right into the Lepton frame. There are four bolt holes that make a perfect sqaure, which match up to the frame, allowing you to use all four screws.

[CRAZYKEV]

I only used two screws, but they are "Fat Boy" Titanium screws that I bought at a local HS. I have them crammed pretty tight and also used blue loctite. They are large diameter heads and Ti so I doubt they will strip :D

[ckoelliker]

Anyone know what timing I should be using for the Hyperion on the align 75 esc. I was not sure so I went Mid range.

[prototype3a]

Well guys, I decided to get one of the Kora motors so I suspect I'll have both of these motors up for sale here before too long. Now if all my goodies would just show up at my door so I could finish setting up my new lepton. :D :D
