    As for flying, I am going to use a flight sim and connect that up to my DX6i and see how that goes.

    In regards to the USB loader, I can't seem to find info. Probably not searching for the right terms. Can you recommend one?
    The APC props you can get from lots of places, but the tricopter will take a while to get back in stock. I would recommend you order the tricopter right now (I just checked and there really is only one left in stock). It's been a bussy weekend already and I have no doubt the last tri kit will be gone in the next 12 hours.

    USB Loader: HK now sell them (and has them in stock): http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...occessors.html

    Thanks again Tim,
    I have placed the order through your site and will order the other gear through a few different places.
    I guess I have now officially started my journey into the wonderful world of tricopters.

    Great. Good luck to you. You will have ups and lows in this hobby, just be aware. I really do recommend you get a foamy to get the hang of flying -- they are hard to destroy.

    Hi!!! I am now ordering the battery for the Derlin Tricopter. This can be used right?

    Turnigy nano-tech 6000mah 4S 25~50C Lipo Pack

    It is too big and I should take a smaller one? I am planing on using them for FPV so I can get the Maximum flight!

    or this one?

    Turnigy nano-tech 5000mah 4S 35~70C Lipo Pack

    Wow... that is big. I did not know they made a 6000mah 4s. Honestly, I think you may want to stick with the 5000mah as it is a lot lighter. It will provide you lots of flight time as well. And, you must have a power set up like the NX-4008 and 10x4.7 props.

    Yes yes! Thank you very much Tim!! I will take this one! Do you know if it is better to Keep the BECs from the ESCs or I should have an external one for insurance?

    You can use either a dedicated BEC or use the ESC.

    The ESCs have 3 BECs, all used? I mean if the one from the 3 don't work it uses the 2 others? Is it more safe to do it like this, or it's safer to remove all the 3 and use an external?
    Just for insurance! Who wants to have a fool crash because a bad BEC?

    I personally never had a plush ESC BEC fail on me. The KK board is ok with all three ESCs providing the 5v in parallel. So even if one ESC BEC fails, you have 2 more. However, some FC boards want clean power provided by a separate BEC (like the MultiWiiKK Board).

    I understand! Thank you very much for your help Tim! I will go with the ESC then!
