I have always wanted a quadcopter for a while now, as I had grown up with remote cars and planes but didn’t want to spend the huge money some retail places were charging for ready to fly quads…
I already had a lot of parts required like batteries, remote, charger, servo leads, etc so my build was cheaper than buying all the items listed below. But I added them all anyway for those starting out new.
Here is the parts list from HobbyKing.com for the QuadCopter build from the Australian Warehouse.
