First Micro Quadcopter Build- Help Wanted

Hello everyone in the multirotor forum,

Im in the planning stages of my first quad build. I have been flying my FPV Nano QX for a few weeks, and I am looking for a little more flight time and a little more power. It has been my desire to build a Quadcopter for a few months, so I decided to do it now.

MY SETUP:

Frame: Picnic Quads H Frame (http://picnicquads.com/product/plat...=h&attribute_material=carbon-fiber-birch-core), QBot motor mounts, and accessory plate.


Motors: MMW 7mm Motors (http://micro-motor-warehouse.com/collections/7mm-custom-builds/products/cl-0720-14)

Board: Nano QX Board (http://www.horizonhobby.com/product...LH&utm_medium=ProductPage&utm_content=BLH7601)

Props: Hubsan X4

Battery:

JST to UM Adapter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TRLQNQ/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

And

lectron Pro 600 mah 35c (https://www.commonsenserc.com/produ...cts_id=3540&osCsid=p5t9p4kvmu4gmra1gbfl168sn5)

Or

Thunder Power 325 mah 45 c (http://www.thunderpowerrc.com/Products/325-mAh/TP325-1SPR45J)

FPV gear: Spectrum VA1100 camera/vTX

I'm hoping to get at least five minutes of FPV flying with my build and the same power as the FPV NQX or more. How is my setup?

Thanks in advance!

I ordered everything yesterday. Decided to do it the FT way: if it doesn't work, change something.

Will update with build pics!

Best method of doing something new like this :)

I don't think a lot of people have experience with DIY micro quads yet. I'm really interested to see how yours works out.

The build should start very soon; I just got a shipment notice from PicnicQuads! I also ordered the Lectron Pro 600 mAH from Amazon. Already have the FPV camera and the NQX board.
