Tip: If you copied the same method for your ESC's and are worried about moisture I recommend covering them up with liquid electrical tape, or electrical tape!
Tip: If this is your first Quadcopter, or you've never setup an arm switch, flight controller, or worked with a taranis, then I recommend watching this awesome series by BMSWEB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1RWb49wjjI
This is a really condensed video of an intermediate-advanced build with a lot of info that may be a bit overwhelming- please pause the video for a better look. If you have any questions please leave me a message in the comments! Sorry if I sound a bit nervous at times or didn't explain something well enough- I'm new to doing voice overs! Learned a lot! Will try to create more videos like this in the future!
