Hi All

I'm after some advice, A, as to if I have all the parts I need and B, validation that what I have listed can all work together!

This will be my first build so I'm not expecting it to be amazing by any stretch!

sorry for the lack of links, I cant post any until I've posted 3 times

If there are any cheaper / better alternatives feel free to share :)

Any pointers and advice appreciated!
 
That's a UK shopping list ;)
I tried ardupilot when I first took this hobby up. Seemed outdated like cleanflight is now. Not had as much upkeep as betaflight.
From what I gather Inav would be a better option. Had a little mess with it myself lately and some good features.
Launch, loiter,gps. Someone may correct me on this. It might be on ardupilot now.
I don't know. But the list seems OK. Esc is a bit overkill as they are only 9amp motors and 3S only. But it can't hurt. If you decide on a beefier motor in the future you should be ok.
 
Haha it is indeed!

So you would recommend looking at iNav for the flight controller?

The ESC being slightly overkill, will that ruin the motors in the long run?

Thanks for your help :)
