Choosing a flight controller

Posted by Simon Brown on June 28, 2015 at 12:43pm
I'm about to start building my first quad however I'm stuck as to which flight computer I should get and also which spectrum receiver I should use. I have a spectrum receiver for a plane setup but can I use this or can I purchase a satellite receiver to use on its own? It has the channels for motor, ailerons, rudder, gear etc. can this be wired for a drone with 4 motors?

    Just for info here is what I've gone for so far...
    - LDPOWER MT3515-400KV Brushless Outrunner Motor
    - 4pcs SimonK Firmware 2-3S 12A Brushless ESC with BEC for Quadcopter
    - 500 Red & White Alien Multi-copter REPTILE 500mm Quadcopter Frame W / 450 / 550
    - 10x7 prop
    - 5000mah 3s 25c LiPo battery

    As before just need an appropriate flight controller...
