Hello. Here's a shocker. I'm here because I want to build a quad copter! Could you point me in the right direction?
Flight Controller
I am not too worried about ESCs, motors, props, and frame. I am thinking either a warthox frame or something cheap from HobbyKing. Turnigy motors, SimonK flashed ESCs. Something like that.
The flight controller is a bit of a mystery to me. I know of the KK board from HobbyKing, and I am trying to read up on MultiWii. If I understand correctly, an Arduino Mini board and a Wii Motion Plus board are combined. Correct? MWC Paris AIR looks quite nice as well although a little more money.
What is the best solution for a beginner? I am not afraid of soldering, but I need to be able to understand what to do, and I want to fly!
Radio
Does anyone have experience with the cheap 9ch Turnigy radios? Any other suggestions if they are no good? What receiver do you suggest?
