1204 FPV Motors
3 motors with a 1204 stator from 3 brands, typically spinning 2-2.5in props. They weigh 5.8–6.1 g and come in 5000–6500KV windings. The name is the stator size in millimetres: a 1204 stator is 12 mm across and about 4 mm tall.
| Brand | Model | KV options | Weight | Cells |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VCI HOBBY | Spark 1204 | 5600 | 5.8 g | 3-4S |
| RCINPOWER | GTS-V2 1204 | 5000 | 6.0 g | 3-4S |
| T-Motor | F1204 | 5000, 6500 | 6.1 g | 2-3S |
1204 thrust from manufacturer bench tests
3 of these motors come with the manufacturer's own thrust test. Each row is that motor's peak-thrust point, the prop and battery it was measured with, and the efficiency at 50% throttle in the same test. Every brand runs its own bench with its own props, so compare rows that share a prop and cell count; this is not one like-for-like test.
| Motor | Max thrust | Thrust ÷ motor weight | g/W at 50% | Tested with |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VCI HOBBY Spark 1204 | 263 g | 45.3× | 2.47 | 5600KV, GF 2512-3, 4S |
| RCINPOWER GTS-V2 1204 | 186 g | 31.0× | 3.28 | 5000KV, T2.5*3*3, 4S |
| T-Motor F1204 | 172 g | 28.2× | 3.66 | 5000KV, HQProp HQ3020, 3S |
