</div><div style="text-align: left;">Motors - RCX 1804</div><div style="text-align: left;">I’m very surprised with the power of these little motors.  However I’ve found that they aren’t very durable.  After a few crashes, the bearings have a lot of slop.  Also, several magnets have had to be re-glued in place.  If you don’t mind occasional motor service then I’d absolutely recommend these. I stress that these are NOT maintenance free motors.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">ESCs - EMAX Simon Series 12A</div><div style="text-align: left;">Not much to say about these, they’ve performed great from the start.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Battery - Rhino 30c and Nanotech 45-90c</div><div style="text-align: left;">If you’re looking to keep things cheap, the Rhino or Zippy 30 or 35c batteries will get you flying.  However, if you are looking for a real high performer, you’ll have to pay nearly double for some quality Nanotechs.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Fame - Modified HK 250</div><div style="text-align: left;">When I wasn’t satisfied with the carrying capacity of the stock frame, I designed and printed a vibration isolated camera tray that holds the battery, Mobius, and FPV transmitter. All parts of the frame have taken many hard crashes very well.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Flight Controller - Naze32</div><div style="text-align: left;">I’m not going to go on and on about the Naze32 controller here. All I’ll say is that it flies great and is everything I needed for an acrobatic yet stable quad.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Props - 5030 2 and 3 Blade, 5040</div><div style="text-align: left;">I started with 2 blade 5030s then moved on to the other props. 5030s worked fine, but if you’re looking for speed or have a heavier setup you’ll need the others.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
</div><div style="text-align: left;">FPV Gear - 250mW and Mobius</div><div style="text-align: left;">So far I haven’t ran into any issues with FPV through the Mobius, but that’s not to say that it’s problem free in all setups.</div><div style="text-align: left;">
