The Special Sauce 

This Motor was the GO-TO motor for anyone on the Tiny Whoop scene in 2016 and part of 2017. I still have a few of these around, but this product is almost always going to be SOLD OUT. This page will be left on the website as a memento to a mostly-extinct important step in the long road that brought Tiny Whoop technology to the place it is today. Here's the original description:

When I found this motor I switched most of my Whoops over to them. At 17300kv these motors are considerably more powerful than almost all of the motors used for upgrading Tiny Whoop style aircraft. If you're flying a stock board, these are the fastest motors you can fly without encountering considerable oscilations. You'll feel the difference these motors make when you're punching out or when you're making important corrections in race situations. They haul.

On a clean setup i'm getting between 3-5 minutes of hard-core heart-pounding flying with the 255mah Tiny Whoop HV Batteries. Enough time to win most races or to tame the vast, dynamic terrain that is your home.

If you're flying a BeeBrain or other betaflight flight controller you should consider the Insane Motors, which are even more powerful but oscillate very badly on boards that cannot be tuned to them. 

6mm x 15mm brushed coreless motors for the Blade Inductrix and Nano QX. 

To get the most out of these motors I recommend you break them in by hovering for 10 minutes of flight time. Then go nuts.

A Message from Mr. Tiny Whoop

about Tariffs and Pricing

Hey everyone,

I’m speaking to you now both as a business owner and a member of the FPV family we've built together.

For almost ten years now, I’ve been doing everything I can to keep Tiny Whoop prices steady, even as costs started to rise. But with the newest wave of tariffs—more than doubling the cost of nearly every part we import from China—that fight has hit a wall.

Lots of you have already noticed some prices going up across the site. This isn’t a price hike to chase profit. It’s survival mode. Like everyone in the FPV industry right now, I’m facing a set of changes that hit fast and hard. Nearly everything we source from China now costs us more than double.

For an irresponsibly long time I ate the costs of the tariffs, but the math doesn’t work anymore without putting Tiny Whoop at serious risk.

So here’s what I want you to know:
Every price increase is a response to real, unavoidable costs.
Even with the price increases I’m taking a big hit.
When this pressure eases, I’ll roll back prices immediately.

If you have any questions or ideas it would mean a lot to hear from you!

We’re still shipping every day, still guaranteeing satisfaction on all orders. But this is the toughest moment Tiny Whoop has faced in nearly a decade.

Through all of this, my mission hasn’t changed. I’m still committed to helping people experience the gift of flight, to keeping TinyWhoop.com on the leading edge of innovation, and to making sure the magic of Tiny Whoop doesn’t get swallowed up by politics and global economics.

If you’ve been a part of this ride in any way, I am so, so grateful! Thank you for supporting Tiny Whoop, thank you for supporting my family, and thank you for being a part of this amazing community!
