First, I must confess last fall I bought a DJI Phantom to fly my Gopro on. Well as I'm sure you're all aware, I outgrew it fast. No more fooling around for me, I want a real multirotor. Below is a parts list I have assembled, I would appreciate it if you guys could look it over and see if I have made any mistakes. I really tried to do all of my research before hopping on the board and asking noob questions. Regardless, I am still a noob and I apologize in advance for my ignorance. My goal is a stable video platform my camera/gimbal/FPV payload is about 500g.
Frame (I believe it's an f550 clone)

Flight Controller (this is my major concern, will I be able to accomplish GPS lock with this. Also does this need a compass or is that part of GPS)

Motors 6X (I am concerned about lift, should I be?)

Battery 2X (with my lift conern, it seems I may be able to increase thrust by going to a 14.8v battery, will this affect Flight Controller/ESC)
