Hello,
I'm completely and utterly new to the hobby. I'm a computer geek that knows how to build. But when it comes to getting part and controllers for my first plane I'm completely lost. I have some parts picked out but I have no idea if they are good ones to go for or if there is a cheaper way to do it. I would prefer to get it as cheap as possible without getting into the super crappy stuff that only work about a week.
I have already build the plane it's my own take on the noob tube with some modification:

It gluide realy well and is light, I was also thinking of building some of the swapable ones to learn, I can already fly the planes I just don't know the electronics.
the list of parts I have are as follows:
NTM2826-1200kv $15.97
8x4 propeller 6pack $3.38
NTM accessory pack $2.05
TR_P25A - turnigy 25amp ECS $13.60
Hobby king 2.4Ghz 6ch tx x rx $29.99
Turnigy 500mAh 3S 20c Lipo X2 $14.30
IMAx B6-AC charger 1-6cell $44.99
For a total of $124.28
Now I'm not afraid of welding and I thought of using an old power supply instead of the IMax charger but I thought I see what other people say. I already have some 9g servos and the small stuff.
Tell me what you think I could change or go better/worse on.
Thanks
