Quad part list

We will have to rework a bunch of stuff. The more and more I am looking at it the less I like the frame. Anyone else have a recommendation for a good frame?

* NOTE: I screwed up on the pdf, I am fixing it now!



Alright, I got the pdf of the frame. It is 12 in tall by 24 inches wide. It looks like we will be able to have a maximum of 11 inch propellers. I attempted to get some plywood but you have to order 3mm (1/8 inch) plywood because they don't carry it in the stores. However, they had particle board but that would be a bad idea to use. I thought Kevin Lee had some plywood in his office, ill see if he can help us out tomorrow.

(I forgot to add that we need to use 2 pieces of 12 in by 24 inch plywood because we need to cut out two over every part, this frame will be very strong but also very light, it is a good platform and it will allow us to play with something next week)

OK, forget about buying online. I went to Hub Hobby today to ask some questions and get some advice. Needless to say I highly recommend that we buy from them. Prices are just a bit more but we don't need to worry about shipping.

Motors

BP A2212-13 - $20
BP A2217-9 - $29

ESC

BP Cheetah 30A - $22

Props

APC 10 X 5 E - $4ish


The motors are much smaller, lighter and just as powerful.

Flight controller

Multiwii MWC SE - $20

If we opt for the FTDI cable that's like 15 or so bucks but that gives us a bit more capability.

Ok, the prop balancer, Multiwii, frame and battery have been ordered. There was a slight problem with ordering parts from Hobbyking. Site was having issues at school, so I couldn't get an order to go through there. By the time I got home and tried again the 3700mAh battery was already back-ordered. In the interest of not wasting time I ordered a 3300mAh with the same specs. Everything should be arriving in ~5 days. I will grab motors, speed controllers, and props either tomorrow or Friday.

Absolutely. The bulk of assembly will probably be completed this Wednesday.
