Buy the Five33 Switchback and Motors at: * Five33 (USA) - * Five33 (EU) -
Buy the Aikon F7 Mini HD at: * RaceDayQuads - * Pyro-Drone - * Catalyst Machineworks - * Banggood -
Pyro's and CMW's listing for the Aikon F7 is the V3 version. I use the V2 version in the video, and there are some slight differences between them--specifically the way the 5v/10v solder bridge works. I'm including the links to the V3 just in case the V2 is out of stock and you decide to go with the V3.
Buy the Redux Air 32 bit ESC at: * Redux Air - * ThrottleUpUSA -
There are allmost no dealers for the Redux at this time; and the Redux may be out of stock for a while. A good alternative is the Aikon 20mm ESC (bonus: you won't have to make a custom wire harness to go between FC and ESC if you get the Aikon).
