Hi all,
This is my first adventure into the RC world and I've decided try building a V-tail quad. I'd appreciate any thoughts and guidance as I learn and build.
I've already rushed in and bought some stuff from hobby king. Let me know if I've made any bad choices. I'll be building the frame from ply and 10mm square timber sourced locally.

2 x Slow Fly Electric Prop 9047SF (4 pc) - 9 x 4.7 - I bought these when I was planning to use the DT750 motors. Hopefully they will be ok with the motors listed above
4 x Hobby King 30A ESC 3A UBEC (AUS Warehouse) - will flash with simonk firmware
