So I'm hooked! Flew a DJI last night and started looking into racing drones. Found a site and started to piece together what I hope will be a good learner... Can someone tell me if I am missing something or need different pieces?

My build so far ( haven't purchased yet)

Body: QAV-Skitzo quad 250
Motors: Lumenier RB2205c-12 2400 KV
ESC's: Lumenier mini 20A w/ SimonK autoshot, 5V/1A BEC
Props: Gemfan 5x4 3 blade
Battery: Lumenier 1500mAh 4s 75c Lipo Battery
FC: Acro Naze32 rev6 or the Lumenier Skitzo FC
Camera: Lumenier CMOS-1200 16:9
Goggles: Fat Shark Dominator V3
Transmitter: Lumenier TX5GPro mini 25mW 5.8GHZ
Antenna: IBCrazy 5.8 GHz Mad Mushroom
Controller: FrSky Taranis X9D 2.4 GHz

Am I leaving anything out? I went with a lot of Lumenier things b/c for whatever reason they were easier to find parts for on getfpv.

Any and all comments are welcome. Even to say I'm a total noob! ;)

Thanks,

Krak

Id go with at least a 200 mw vtx, many go 600.That will require more than 5 volts. The lumenier is 7-12. Id go with a 3s battery with more mah, maybe 2200 or so. And buy ALOT of xtra props bud. Youre gonna need them. Be careful with that thing even a plastic prop can cut your finger off .
 
Thanks for your response Wild! So everything else looks good other than the video transmitter, and battery? any other extras? motors? batteries? wires? esc's? I was going to buy about 4 sets of props for the time being and about 3 batteries for now....
 
Everything else looks pretty good. One thing to remember that isnt very well known amongst peeps new to the hobby: never power up yout vtx without the antenna attatched. Youll smoke it instantly. Get yourself a low voltage alarm so 1) you dont over-discharge your battery and 2) you can land it before it lands itself:Integy RC Hobby C23212 LiPo Voltage Checker + Warning Buzzer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003Y6E6IE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_la7Kyb1TC9PMK

And a protector for your vtx:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:739072

The antennas break off easy in a crash. Theres various kinds out there justshowing one
