We are building a hexa with a weight of apr. 6-7 kg, and we are getting close to ordering. Before we do, we want to make sure the different components match up...
Our desired motors are MK3638 (any cheaper alternatives for these?) These are thought to be controlled through Arducopter 30 amp ESC's: http://www.buildyourowndrone.co.uk/ArduCopter-ESC-30-Amp-p/ac-esc30a.htm . Is this enough, or do we need to upgrade to a higher amperage? We are planning to use ArduPilot.
Is there a power distribution board capable of delivering this amount of amperage, or do we have to make one ourselves? We can't seem to figure out how to choose ESC's and finding a distribution board that would hold up.

We are placed in Denmark, Europe, so European vendors are preferred.
