Everything looks pretty good except maybe you could go with a 35c instead of 25c. 25c might be adequate but when it comes to batteries you are better off with more capacity than just enough capacity especially if you go with two 5000 mah batteries on board. The extra weight will draw more current well into the burst of even the 35c I recommend. Just my personal taste. Go with at least 10" props on those multistars. 10" is about right considering you'll have six of them spinning. I'd run 11" on a quad with those motors. Slow fly, two blade. Also, I don't like Naza FC and would never trust one myself. Just about any other FC is better. My recommendations. Do not feel compelled to listen.

Thanks for replying! I'll certainly take your advice regarding the batteries and props. After further researching I am deciding to stay with the Naza FC, many great reviews. Thanks again!
