    Motor.... my kingdom for a motor

    Sadly coreless motors just have a short life. One help would be allowing the motors to cool down a little (fly 7 minutes, land for a couple minutes and fly again) but that would be annoying and will only help some.

    New Rules from the CAA UK quad fliers please read

    Haha, as long as the FAA is still considering laws to be put in place, untill then I hope that people hold out on the stupidest stuff. The media generally hates "drones" or more accurately dubbed (in their opinion) "Flying death/spying- machine".

    Higher kv means shorter flights, but increased speed in general. Where are you buying from to not find batteries with XT60 connectors? have you looked into hobbyking.com (usually the best prices but shipping is really high so try to get from the closest warehouse to you)

    First Quadcopter Build.

    I'd suggest you get the Turnigy 9x (or R but it is a lot more by time you get needed accessories, a friend has it and really likes it. This may sound weird, but I suggest you find how much thrust you may need (what type of flying; filming or racing), yours is more suited for filming, I can...

    Compatable Receiver

    Just be REALLY careful when soldering and make sure to use something like hot glue to keep the wires from breaking the pads. I would suggest you just get a 32ch transmitter, and camera combo, but if you wanted to do one like the mini FPV setup flitetest made then this receiver would work with...

    You have a machine shop? It will be hard to use metal props (hard to make, but you already know that) I agree with Jackson regarding the control board, though this one is rather simple and will work however it is not very configurable. You probably want XT30 connectors on your batteries and...

    $400 to spend, any ideals

    The steveis pro firmware for the KK2.1.5 has a built in vibration test too, you power up one motor at a time (to see which motors), and it has a little meter.

    First Quad Build. First Time building kk2 board help ?

    I don't see a servo, is it there or planned? All mutirotors with a non-even number of motors need a tilt servo to control yaw, it is however possible to use a tail rotor like a heli too.

    Vibration is the biggest problem. But flex is not much, by time it bends most other frames would have broke. I may be using a little heavier gauge.

    CARBON FIBER 320 SIZE QUAD AND DX6

    I have one of yours :P, came in that box. Many companies will wrap wires through a ferrite ring 5 times, but unless you do it a lot more it is worthless. I don't know how effective this type is, but many cords use this style.
