Hello All and thanks in advance for your help with my first build.
I'm posting this from my mobile phone, so please excuse brevity. I will edit and add pics when I get home.
I purchased a frame as a starting point. It is a generic $25 frame from ebay. F450 is the model and the diagonal wheelbase is listed at 550MM.
I used the guide as the basis for my component purchases.
Am I forgetting anything here:
Frame - Described above
Motors - Brushless Exterioi KV1000
ESCs - 30A generic for brushless
Props - 10 x 4.5" generic
Flight Controller - MultiWii Pro 2.0
+uBlox GPS with mounting plate
+Compass with PCB shield
+3 pin installed on right angle
+Firmware flashed: Quad X
+Telemetry 3DR Radio 915Mhz
+RCU Wire Kit
+RGB Ring plug & play LED kit
(The above is all foreign to me so I selected the mosy expensive component options hoping I'd be covered)
I have a TX from the Hubsan X4 H107D FPV.
Will that TX work with this build, or will I need to modify/purchase a new one.
How does this look so far?
Am I missing any components other than LIPO?
If so, what else will I need and what LIPO is recommended. (FC I believe required 3S)
Many thanks, I will post pics ASAP.
Im very open to any criticism and feedback and want to give thanks to those that manage, operate, and contribute to this forum.
