I'm very new to quads and I have been flipping my newly built quad a few times already. When trying to fly for the first time, should I be more concerned about the POTs on my KKboard, or the end points of my transmitter? And my second question is,…
"im sorry i meant balance port. the you tube channel referred to it as a tap. thank you very much!"
"Thanks for the reply. However I am still confused. While flying, would you solder to your esc, or plug into the tap? Thanks."
This may be a simple question. I have a low voltage alarm that looks like it plugs into my lipo tap. But I see videos of guys soldering them directly to the esc. Is that right? Or is it meant to be plugged into tap?

"Dave thank you for replying. So is the esc set to nicd through the card? And how do I know if I am using Simonk firmware? I have a flight board that is a kkmulticopter v5.5. Is that Simonk? Thank you for the help."
I asked this question in an assigned category but I received no answer. Maybe someone can give me a little assistance. I bought 4 Hobbypower 30A ESC and I also have a book called "build your own quadcopter" which follows the Elev-8 Quadcopter. I am…

"yes, the motors are A2212/T13 1000kV"
"I am overwhelmed by the responses. Thank you all very much. I have more than enough info to get the right battery. Thank you very much."
"But these motors take 4 to 10 amps, so I assume I at least need the 4000 mAH? Assumming? I know I can use the 2100, and I understand the amp draw gives me a smaller flight time. So if I use a 4000, I am getting a bigger battery, and that is really…"
"Thank you for replying. I was going to order 10 x 4.5 props, what other specs did you need for the motors?"
I have 4 hobbypower motors at 1000kV that draw 4-10 amps. I have a KKmulticopter flight board V5.5, and hobbypower 30A ESCs. I am just curious. If i am thinking correctly, I believe I need at least a battery for a 4000 maH for the motors…
