You don't need the buzzer, also is there a reason you have both the KKmini and the Orange 3 axis stabilization? Also you should get a mode 2 transmitter, unless you already are accustomed to mode one.

To make things a little easier, the full sized KK2.1.5 would be good.

Mode 2 Tx
Receiver to replace stabilization/receiver combo
That is a great starter FPV set (I have one myself), if you can afford a littler more here is a really cheat Fatsharrk set ($200)
 
Hi mate get the flash lead for the KK steveis code is much nicer to fly on , also servo leads to connect receiver to KK
 
So GJ , I'll have to think about the fpv goggles, but nice find. How does this revised list look. As I said before I am new to this, so sorry if I am causing any frustration.

I use carbon fibre, but for these small props it is too expensive, ABS would be fine, but they are a little flexible. YOu want the least flexibility to have the best preformance.

What size do you recommend, 5in or 6in? also any particular material? I was thinking these 329000304-0 - Gemfan 5030 Multirotor ABS Propellers On..

Some thrust tests with those motors.
GF 5030 Prop on 3S - 380 Grams pulling 7.9A @ 100% / 200 Grams pulling 3.5A @ 50%
HQ 5030 Prop on 3S - 350 Grams pulling 6.9A @ 100% / 180 Grams pulling 3.1A @ 50%
HQ 5040 Prop on 3S - 420 Grams pulling 9.6A @ 100% / 215 Grams pulling 3.9A @ 50%
HQ 6030 Prop on 3S - 460 Grams pulling 9.4A @ 100% / 220 Grams pulling 3.8A @ 50%
HQ 6045 Prop on 3S - 620 Grams pulling 16.9A @ 100% / 255 Grams pulling 5.3A @ 50%

May as well grab some 5040's and the 6030's look sweet with 20 grams more thrust and less amps than the 5040's. Get them all and see what suits you best. :)

Note the HQ props are rather brittle, but that's what they tested. The GF 5040's and 6030's may actually work a tad better. HobbyKing has them.

And one of these for the final touch.
