I signed up hoping to get some help here and some good anwsers....

I recently purchased a Syma X5c off ebay atleast I thought I was when I got it. The transmitter had no LCD screen on it? I wouldnt know where or what to look for to get it. but I imagine I will need it considering what I want to do with the quad.

Ok Now I have a Syma x5c build that I will like to upgrade myself and put it on a custom frame like a R450 found here:

https://quadcopterframe.com/collect...ass-fiber-quadcopter-frame-450mm-red-white-v1

I also would like to add brushless motors to it to be able to lift my GOPRO camera plus a bigger battery. I would be using the quad for filming music videos and aeriels shots of my first movie I am filming this summer.....

NO I was wondering Can I upgrade to bigger brushless motors: something like this
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/..._Brushless_Multirotor_Motor_Built_by_DYS.html

to give it the power to carry a bigger battery such as the size of an
11.1V 5400mAh Battery (same batter as xk Detect quadcopter)

Can the mother board withstand that kind of power? Will those motors be enough to lift that kind of weight? battery and gimble with goPro black edition attached to it? If not can I please get some help

Im pretty new to quads but Im wondering why you would convert such a small quad platform to such a large platform. Have you looked at quad builds that fit your needs? The syma is a fun little quad but its toy grade and what you need is more high end hobby A/P grade. Im sure you will need a better control board, ESCs to run those motors and if you want to make movies you will need probably need altitude hold a gimble and possibly servos and a whole bunch of stuff I dont understand yet, but Im sure the syma board cant do any of it.

only because im more familiar with the controller / transmitter and im still a begginer flyer.... scared to spend 1100 on the dji phantom and lose it or crash it up when I can take the syma and use its motherboard and controller to upgrade for what I need....it for that way i can also turn around and sell the build online as well
