All I wondered if I could get some advice. My son is a keen RC plane and quadcopter flyer and a friend of mine is also a keen multirotor flyer. I am looking to build a tricoptor and have been looking for something that will be very tough, easy to fly but capable of doing almost anything in the future. I have so far put together the following list of parts. I understand that I will need a transmitter and various cabling and power distribution. But I wondered if in my inexperience if I had missed anything major or made any big mistakes by picking items that are incompatible. Any advice will be appreciated
