arieal drone build help

hey so i'm about to build my first arial drone for filming. so a bit of background information im pretty tech savvy and have been working with electronics and computers for a while so reckon this should be relatively easy to build im just after some advice on some components you guys could recommend, for the type of features im after.

  • i will be using my go pro hero which im going to buy a flat lense for
  • i want to be able to have clean shots with a gimble
  • be able to fly the drone 200m or more away from me, in distance not altitude.
  • be able to program the drone to flight a certain way path.
  • manual control over the gimble would be nice too

i guess im looking to build something close to the phantom or the iris plus. im on a budget but not a strict one just want to have the fun of building a nice working drone that i can use for filming and have the ability to repair it in the case of an accident 

main parts

  • Transmitter and receiver =Turnigy 9X 9Ch Transmitter w/ Module & 8ch Receiver (Mode 1) (v2 Firmware)
  • Frame ??
