    @  Mickele & Michael

    Be aware of the swashplate mixing when using the heli setup for the quad.

    I searched but cannot find a definition of PID.
    Any help appreciated!

    I have read the information you have posted, Thanks guys!

    But i would like to read something about why I should choose a specifik motor/ESC/batteri and so on, i would like to learn what things in the descriptions of an item actually means. How a controllingcard works etc..

    Where can i learn all this?

    Check out the specs for the diydrones quad. Should point you in the right direction. They also offer a kit which includes all electronics. If you want to use different ones, i'm sure some members could point you in the right direction, but I would suggest google. It is an open source project so the code can be changed for whatever electronics you choose.
