 Alright, here we go. This is what we're doing man. We're going to race. Let's go see who can change the props the fastest All right ready ready, huh? Huh? What did you go? Man What the fuck all right, I hate to really admit this but I got to admit it because it really drives home a point in my professional career as an FPV pilot easily the most embarrassing thing that I have probably ever done is Hand over my quad to somebody and be like could you take off this prop nut for me? It's a super weak sauce thing guys because it to me That's a whole lot like going into a bar getting a beer bottle and not being able to pop off that that beer cap Like I just feel like you know, you don't get that right of a passage of a man Man passage and that's how I feel like folks when I can't take my prop nut off my FPV quad And I'm supposed to be this big ol, you know, I mean not big old you but you know just a dude in this industry Anyways, we're gonna first look everybody Lumineer coming in hot bringing some innovation to the game and now before I get into this product right here Let's just talk about luminaires history in motors now They first came out with the MX series and the focus there really wasn't having a nice Performing but very incredibly smooth motor and they definitely delivered on that and then they brought the popo Mechanism which is really supposed to change the way you change props on a motor today. I introduced to you popo Pro the whole point of this is to really change that experience of changing props now Who's this for? Well, maybe you're a racer, right racers. You just need to get around the track fast You need to change your props fast time is money. Maybe you're in your freestyle. You want to get in you want to get out No fuss. Just hurry up and go introducing the lumineer zip series of motors pack in that popo pro System if you look real closely the first thing you're gonna notice what you're gonna notice is that shaft No longer has threads on it and why it's because Lumineer has doubled down on their popo system Basically saying look this is the way to do it and I'm gonna have to agree so check this out It's also got a lower shaft So it's a lot shorter than what you're used to seeing on a standard motor and the biggest thing is the popo button is now Recessed whereas the previous version it stuck up a little and I know there's a couple of concerns with it sticking out Lumineer was listening and here you go version 2.0 version pro no longer has a button Pro-tuting from the shaft that is the lumineer popo pro system making the motor that much better But they didn't stop there because the motor itself is also something worth talking about now This particular motor is a 24.07 1700 kV also available in a 2250 kV and a 2550 kV for all the high kV folks But this one right here only weighs 36 grams with all of the wires that you see here at the bottom It's got that naked style going on You've got the 16 by 16 bolt pattern to get some additional weight savings You've got a set screw instead of that e-clip c-clip Phenomenal because those are known to break in a very hard crash plus just having that set screw just makes it that much easier When you need to serve this the motor maybe you got to change the bearing maybe you change the bell either way Set screw take it off put it back on and you're good to go if you take a look it's got some really nice windings on the stutter and Before you I know I know Because I've been reading in the comments And you guys are always like Tom you don't know how to pronounce stutter, right? Because stutter is supposed to be pronounced Stator stator tomato tomato stutter stator. All right fun fact stator is actually short for two words Stationary rotor and because of that because stationary Rotor you're supposed to say stay tour. Oh My gosh back to a regular schedule program Let's jump back in to the actual popo pro mechanism itself. You do need to have a prop That is popo compatible now The good news is that most of the manufacturers all the big manufacturers HQ gemfan Azure all of these prop manufacturers have adopted The popo Mechanism and their props so long as it says popo compatible on the bag itself Will work with all popo compatible motors now take a quick look at this prop just so that you can see what it looks like So you've got these three Inventations on the hub of that motor now if you take a look here if you look at that shaft You've got three ball bearings there and what happens is you take a tool maybe something like this So this is a sim card ejection tool chances are if you're an FPV dude You probably got something sharp in your backpack Maybe it's a 1.5 mil hex driver all of those things will work and all you gotta do is use this to push This button in and once that is in it allows the ball bearings to fall inside of the shaft Then you can slide the prop on let go the thing pops back up because it's spring-loaded and wait for it This isn't the best part right you're just gonna push down a little bit and give it a little bit of a twist until you hear This really satisfying click That's it once you hear that click folks you are good to go now Here's the thing that I want to point out so on the popo pro version again I mentioned that the shaft is a lot shorter. Here's why it matters It is actually lower than the prop itself now not every prop is going to be this way But some props are and the benefit of this is watch if you were to happen to land upside down I don't know about you But that ain't gonna touch which is really important because I know a lot of people are wondering well What about the durability well four millimeters the whole way down Whereas other motors are three millimeters that one little extra millimeter goes a long way to making things robust and durable Some of you might be wondering I've got this little rubber gasket down there And that comes with all popo pro motors and really what that is just there for is to ensure that most props are Compatible and that's because the thickness between manufacturers varies and what this rubber washer does just allows you to make sure you've got a nice Snug fit as I'm looking at this I'm looking at the magnets and one thing that I want to point out is that this uses n 52 sh magnets now I know what you're wondering that's great. I've heard of n 52 before. What's this? The sh designates a higher heat tolerance So if it doesn't have the sh at the end of that n 52 magnet It just means that you've got a lower heat tolerance And if you're like me playing with some higher kv or maybe even some higher voltage stuff This is 1700 kv it can handle the heat better and if it can handle the heat better You're not wasting a lot of energy if not wasting a lot of energy more that power is going back into your system So we've talked about the motor we talked about the popo pro system Why do you care for me personally? I know that one of the biggest things in this hobby is safety and I know sometimes I'm kind of a lazy dude Sometimes I plug my quad in you know to the laptop and I leave my props on maybe you're like me and you travel a lot I'm that guy walking through TSA will hear a lady scream because like I accidentally shank her with my prop But now there's no excuse fellas. It only takes a couple of seconds to pop your props off This is definitely going to up the whole prop changing experience to a whole new level Luminear actually does two checks for vibration So they do a vibration check and dynamic balancing in the very beginning and they do one at the very end On not just the x-axis, right? So that's over here, but also the y-axis you get a set of luminear motors You could be rest assured that any vibration that you've got isn't coming from the motors if you've got a fresh set out of the box There's another thing that I really like about Luminear. The popo pro system is not just limited to Luminear motors It could be it would have been very easy for a big manufacturer like that to just hold it to themselves But instead they're looking out for the community. They're trying to grow the community They're just trying to make this hobby that we love called FPV flying mini quads in freestyle and racing They just want to help the whole thing And so they have actually pushed this whole popo pro system to something that is available in this Streetwide, which means not just Luminear, you know There are other brands out there that have incorporated the popo pro system, and I think that's super awesome All right folks, that is the Luminear zipline of motors introducing the popo pro System it is available now, so go check it out at your favorite retailer now before we get to the end of this Episode it's not the end of a first look episode without a giveaway. We're gonna give away one set No, you know what? Let's give away two sets because Luminear zipline is coming in in a 2407 and they're also gonna come in a 2207 and we're just really quick just so I could spit that out because maybe you're a 2207 kind of guy It's gonna come in a 1750 kV the 2450 kV and for your high kV folks a whopping 2750 kV now that 2207 is gonna come in at 31 grams This 2407 right here is 36 grams and all of its glory and if you guys want to win one Here's what you got to do drop it down in the comments Let me know what you think about the popo pro system Maybe you want to share a story about cutting up your hand because I know I've cut up my hand plenty of times Those props can be sharp man. Anyways, my name is Tommy. I hope you enjoyed today's episode Let me know too if there's any other thing that you want to see here on first look if you haven't already hit that Subscribe button and I'll see y'all in the next one You know the close-ups of me I'm like super struggling and then you know So right now have the second counts you're close in my face. I'm struggling down in the quad I'm struggling and Bob's your monkey and then Bob's your monkey Okay
