Despite all your good advice, I went in a totally different direction
I was planning on spending some cash but did wonder exactly how much I would use it all. Theres no real locations around me and I dont have a car to get to places etc
In the end I decided on a Turnigy Micro Quad. £90 for everything excluding batteries & transmitter. So got a few 950mAh batteries as recommended and also a 4ch transmitter, although I now think I should had spent the extra for a 6 channel for the extra AUX functions
For those that dont know, its kinda of a DIY quad. Everything is replaceable and also comes with a KK2.0. Annoyingly the quad & batteries were from the UK warehouse whereas the transmitter needed to come from the global warehouse, so I'm still waiting for it.
Next step is to update the firmware to 1.6 on the KK and also flash the ESC's, seems like BLHeli is the weapon of choice for SiLab based ESC's.
