Bruce is right about the weight, however that said, I like the 2814's simply because it wont be long before you outgrow the 550 Frame/GoPro combo. It's an easy parts transition to any carbon frame; Rustys, Tarot, Droidworx etc w the 2814's on 4S.
(Here's one for WAY down the road. Chap (Holco) did some motor tests with the AXI 2814s (similar to TMotors) that ran 14x5 props on 5S and were VERY efficient. You'll need longer arms than the usual 330mm, say 500mm to give yourself some options. Once you get comfortable assembling these things, you'll find yourself tearing down and reconfiguring half a dozen times as you narrow down the exact payload you want to shoot with. So don't toss those 2814 options just yet)
