Nov8er's Prototype Part List

[Nov8er]

Hello to the community. I've finally put together a list of parts that I think would make a decent multirotor quad. If anyone sees an easier way or an error in the build tell me because I am new to making quads. I am trying to successfully build a heavier mid-sized racer with a decent battery life of 10 min. Here it is:

#1 (Battery) - Turnigy nano-tech 3000mah 3S 25~50C Lipo Pack >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Turnigy-nan...adio_Control_Control_Line&hash=item35dc42d4e1

#2 (Motors) - 4x A2212 1000Kv Brushless Outrunner Motor >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/4x-A2212-10...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4ae2d9e70b

#3 (Propellers) - 8x Three 3-blade 7045" 7x4.5 Props >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/8x-Three-3-...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item46094ed9fb

#4 (Electronic Speed Controllers) - 4x HobbyFans Brushless Motor 30A (ESC) >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/4x-HobbyFan...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4624088b56

#5 (Flight Controller) - CC3D Openpilot Open Source Flight Controller Side Pin >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/CC3D-Openpi...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19f52b7826

#6 (Radio and Receiver) - FS FlySky FS-i6 2.4GHz RC Helicopter Transmitter & Receiver 6ch >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/FS-FlySky-F...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f402381c0

#7 (Custom QuadFrame) - All aluminum and zip-tie constrained. Foam in lining for smooth shock absorption. Rollcage style frame to guard electrical equipment from sudden impacts.

*Weight Without Gear Only Frame: <roughly - 6.24oz or 177g>
*Weight With Gear and Frame: <roughly - 1.5lb or .68kg>

As for now it has no FPV gear. I'm just needing to know if this will fly. Any advice or constructive criticism would be very appreciated.

What is the actual frame size, motor centre to motor centre?

Those motors are the long shaft type, short shaft are recommended as they will balance better and that size motor would probably be better on 9 inch props..

Best to go for higher refresh rate ESC's, will be smother flight.

What is the actual frame size, motor centre to motor centre?

The frame is 8.75in or 22.23cm width by 11.5in or 29.21cm length motor centers. I actually thought about getting smaller shaft motors also.

Perhaps a photo will help, that seems to be quite a small frame.

Here are some images of it:
