    Currently I have Turnigy Plush 18Amp ESC's on all my flying quads. We are looking new ESC's for DIY ArduCopter Kit but basically any 18-25 Amp ESC is ok. Also you should have motors kv 850-1050 area. Full kit will have 1000kvish motors.

    Yes if you place ESC's proper way, you can rather easily fold it. That was one our basic needs too for people who carry Quads in their "bag" or case.
