Description

Engineered for the demanding world of micro FPV drones and Whoop-class builds, the HQProp Ultralight Whoop Prop 1.6X1X3 delivers performance through intelligent weight savings. The high-grade polycarbonate material provides the necessary durability for indoor and light outdoor flying while keeping the mass to an absolute minimum, directly contributing to longer flight times and more responsive throttle control.

The propeller’s 1.0 pitch and three-blade configuration are optimized for the high-RPM, low-inertia environment of micro drones. This design generates ample static thrust for agile maneuvers and punch-outs while maintaining predictable handling and stability for both racing and freestyle flying. The robust 5mm hub is engineered to withstand the torsional forces of rapid acceleration and deceleration without deformation.

Key Features

  • High-Grade Polycarbonate Build: Offers an optimal balance of extreme lightweight properties and impact resistance for durable performance.
  • Optimized Tri-Blade Aerodynamics: The 1.0 pitch and three-blade design maximize thrust density and prop wash control for micro drones.
  • Precision 1mm Shaft Bore: Ensures a perfect, concentric fit on standard micro motor shafts to minimize vibration and maximize power transfer.
  • Reinforced Hub Design: The 5mm diameter and thickness hub provides a large, stable mounting surface to prevent hub cracking and prop slippage.
  • Ultra-Low Rotational Mass: At 0.25g per prop, the reduced inertia allows for faster motor acceleration and more efficient power consumption.
  • Complete Flight Set: Packaged as two clockwise (CW) and two counterclockwise (CCW) propellers for a ready-to-fly micro quadcopter configuration.

Applications

  • Ultra-lightweight 65mm to 75mm Whoop FPV drones for indoor racing and acrobatic flying.
  • Micro 2-inch and sub-2-inch toothpick-style FPV quadcopters prioritizing flight time and efficiency.
  • Tiny whoop and micro cinewhoop builds requiring durable, low-mass propellers for smooth video.
  • DIY micro drone projects utilizing 0802, 0803, 1002, or similar 1mm-shaft brushless motors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size motors are these HQProp 40mm props compatible with?

These propellers are designed for micro brushless motors with a 1mm shaft diameter. They are ideal for common motor sizes used in Whoop and micro drone builds, such as 0802, 0803, 1002, and similar models. Always ensure the motor's KV rating and your battery voltage (typically 1S or 2S) are suitable for the propeller's load.

What is the advantage of the 1.0 pitch and tri-blade design?

The 1.0 pitch provides a balanced thrust profile, offering good static pull for acceleration without being overly aggressive on motor current draw. The tri-blade configuration increases disc area and thrust density compared to a bi-blade, improving low-speed control, prop wash handling, and stability in turbulent air, which is crucial for precise flying in confined indoor spaces.

How does the polycarbonate material and 0.25g weight benefit flight performance?

Polycarbonate offers high impact resistance, making these props durable for crashes. The ultralight 0.25g weight significantly reduces the rotational mass on the motor, leading to faster throttle response, lower current draw for extended flight times, and less gyroscopic precession for snappier flips and rolls. This weight saving is critical for maximizing the performance of micro drones.
