you will need a PAIR of propellers in different colors !!!

Black CW and CCW (clockwise and counter clockwise)
green CW and CCW

get 1 pack of CW and CCW for each color !!

also get a better charger; one thing you dont want to save money is on batteries and chargers !!

get the inexpensive HobbyKing ECO6 50W 5A Balancer/Charger w/ accessories - if you dont abuse it, will serve you forever !

OK thanks!

With the charger he recommended you'll have to wait 1 hour to charge a 2200mAh LiPo. With the small one you selected each charge takes around 5-8 hours!

Those are the same props I use. They come in a Turnigy bag but they are Gemfan which are pretty good props for multicopters.

I use GemFan props for my quads too !

 

[AimDog]

Cool thanks! I will order these this evening!

+1 on GemFan - but I buy them from Paul at www.Flyduino.net

I use green in front and red/orange in rear

did you think of the bullet connectors to connect your ESC's to the PDB?

Before you build your own, might I suggest an mqx? It will let you get a feel for what a quad should feel like. I know there is allure in building one from scratch, but if you have no experience in rc, an rtf mqx would be easier to get in the air, and probably cheaper in the long run.

And if they are still out of stock it's because I bought ALL they had on hand!
