Below it the frame I am going to be using from hobbyking.com for my hexacopter.  Can anyone help with a list of components that I will need.  I'm very handy with the mechanical side, but the electrical is confusing.  I have a friend in engineering who is going to help also.  What I am looking for is what electrical components will I be needing?  A Flight Controller? GPS? APM 2.5?  All this is somewhat foreign.  Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a recent build or send me some info of someone who does?  I want this thing to be very stable as I will be doing FPV using a GoPro.  What will I need to tune it? What will I need to downlink the video to the Pilot?  I realize these are newb questions, but I am in need of some professional assistance.  Any help is appreciated.  I will post pictures of my build so everyone can see....

Thanks!
