use a tiny PDB, FC with built in OSD like Skyline32+OSD. Plan all your wiring very carefully and make sure you have a dremel handy with cutoff wheel and grinder.

Very high quality frame and wonderful to fly but loads of problems to solve while building.
The circlip on Multistar Elite 2306 motors is large so the hole on Anakin's arms needs enlarging with a Dremel.
Mount Little Bee 20a ESC towards the rear of the front arms and as close as possible to the motor. Otherwise the canopy won't have room to mount correctly because of the ESC wires block it.
use the smallest possible PDB otherwise you'll have a hard time routing the wires up to the flight controller.
I used Skyline32+OSD to save space. mounted the FC on standoffs and taped a tiny 12vBEC to the frame under it to power the camera and video transmitter.
Camera angle is set with Dremel cutoff wheel. cut out a section of carbon fibre to fit Turnigy HS1177 Sony Color HAD II CCD Camera.
Use Dremel grinder to shave down camera lens slot on the canopy.
The camera doesn't have any crash protection so it would be best to have a few spares,
