I wanted to put this video together showing my zmr250 fpv racing quadcopter to help anyone out there looking to start their own build. I did a ton of research on forums and on youtube and this is what I came up with. Hopefully it will save you some time on your own build.
The maiden flight is kinda weak, but it was my first time flying so gimme a break ;)
Towards the end of the video I show some products that I bought and where I bought them. It can be hard to figure out everything you need, so if you think you're missing something post a question in the comments and I'll try to help!
Here are some helpful websites I frequent
-www.rcgroups.com (used parts and amazing forum)
-www.openpilot.org (cc3d flight controller help)
-check out my youtube playlist "quadcopter" to see a lot of great tutorials for mini quadcopter
-blog.oscarling.net (great DIY tutorials and builds)
-hobbyking.com (cheap parts, but make sure to order from a warehouse that's close to you for quicker shipping. Also, when you find something you want, wait 3-4 minutes before you click buy and sometimes a discount pops up)
