G'day all.
I thought I'd start contributing more to the community and the best way I could think of was to start a post that shows my current progress and relay any lessons I learn along the way.
Right now I'm still getting everything together however, In future, I will add a build log and the results of flight testing (among other things).
Hopefully this information helps some of you out there.
Cheers,
Nick
