+===== Notes =====
+  - Always check that motors have been assembled correctly, the C10s had the screw holding the mount in place misaligned resulting in one flying motor during first takeoff
+  - Use threadlock in the tiny screws holding the motor in the mount
+===== Motor benchmark before build =====
+The following motors were tested before starting the build:
+  * C10 2900KV with 4x2.5 prop (HobbyKing)
+  * BC1410 3500KV with 4x2.5 and 5x3 props (RCTimer)
+  * BC1410 3900KV with 4x2.5 prop (RCTimer)
+    * found to be not suitable, probably better with a 3" prop
+{{:rc:files:microquad:motortest.png?direct&400|}}
+The result is that C10 has better efficiency than BC1410 and it's the better option even as somewhat heavier.
