    Starter kit for a newbie

    Here's my latest eCalc results. I can't seem to get it any better so. Think you can get it any boetter? Note: No fpv kit included so weight will increase and flight time will decrease :(

    Ok, so to use that ecalc I need to know the total weight of the setup before I know which motors and props I need right? That should include future GoPro and FPV equipment correct?

    Ah so kk 2.0 is not like it was "defective" or kk 2.1 is a "fix" for kk 2.0 .. its for a different use .. At the moment I am not thinking acro - more smooth flying and hoping the thing will get back in one piece :) So 2.0 is better for my use?

    Starter kit for a newbie

    Thank you for your reply. The more I read about this subject the more I get convinced that I would much prefer to build a quadcopter of my own (of course with lots of help). I believe the starting point is creating a list of components I will need. 1 transmitter 1 frame 4 motors 4 propellers...
