    Hello!
    I'm interesting in building a quadcopter, but I'm quite a noob, this being my first ever miniquad,.
    I have watched this 5 part series, on how to building a budget miniquad.


    The Youtuber lists the parts that are needed as follows:

    Camera:
    http://www.Banggood.com/DC12V-13-Sony-960H-CCD-700TVL-2_8mm-Lens-Camera-for-FPV-QAV250-p-974381.html

    Transmitter:
    http://www.Banggood.com/WLtoys-V222-2_4G-4CH-6-Axis-RC-Quadcopter-Transmitter-p-78480.html - Not sure if this will work, It looks like it will.

    ESC:
    http://www.Banggood.com/Emax-Simonk-Series-12A-20A-25A-30A-40A-ESC-For-Quadcopter-QAV-250-p-918126.html - Youtuber lists Afro ESC's but some people say they burn out too quickly

    Frame kit:

    Telemetry receiver:

    Transmitter module:

    Motors:

    Propellers:

    Flight controller:

    I have a few questions, and parts that are missing.

    I need a battery, what battery will be suitable for this? As well as how would I charge it?

    In the video, the guy suggests a OSD module, if I don't have telemetry, but I do so I don't think I need that.


    I would like to able to control it with my phone, Hobbyking asistant has suggested this: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__21430__Hobbyking_IOS_Android_4CH_WiFi_Receiver.html but I wouldn't have a clue how to connect it. (Display video on the phone etc.)

    As well, as anything that can be added to improve.

    Sorry I can't help but I would like to know how you're getting on with the build if you decided to go ahead with it.
