I'm not loving the frame or the ESCs. Actually those are the same cheap ESCs you can get on aliexpress for 11 dollars for a 4 pack.
I have the flight controller and I think it's the best.
These ESCs will be way better and they are smaller and cuter

If I were you I'd search on aliexpress or banggood for a good frame. They have much cheaper prices anyway. This is the one I just ordered and it seems to be better than I lot I saw for what I want. It has the bottom area where you can hide all the wires and even ESCs for a clean look.

you can get the same kind of power board on aliexpress for 2 dollars but you should get a frame with built in PDB or some frames include one that will screw in on the bottom or something. My kingkong 260 frame does. That's also a good frame but it won't stand up to any hard crashes like a carbon fiber one will.

I have those same batteries for all of my drones that are the smaller ones and they are great. I can easily get 20 min. but you can get them for under 25 dollars on ebay

The battery charger is a little lightweight at 45W, especially if you plan to charge a couple of 3S batteries simultaneously and for that you would need a parallel charging board (and more money expended).

Buy more props if you are a NOOB; crashing is part of the learning curve.

"Cheap" components are really not "cheap" in the long run.

This hobby can get quite expensive pretty quickly.

Good luck, fly responsibly, and have fun.

if you go on aliexpress you can find like a 16 pack of propellers for like 15 dollars or so. orrrrrrrrrrrrr get a kingkong 260 for 25 dollars and it comes with 2 frames and the propellers and the PDB and a tail light.
