That plus some enclosures and cameras plus some thrusters like the ones from Bluerobotics ought to get me going?

Re: Build vs Buy: Controls. [LMB]
It's all down to time, cost, and your personal skill level or access to skills.
Personally if I can make almost everything myself, I will, unless it's cheaper to buy units, for example, electronics are cheap to build, but you need to buy the components in bulk, therefore it is cheaper to buy
