Just getting all my quads up to scratch and now need more practice.
The Taranis is the only transmitter to get unless you want to spend a lot of money for a name brand. The speech is great and I have speech on every switch change so I know exactly what the switch is doing.
Also a must in a transmitter is the RSSI level (transmitter signal strength) which I get it to speak every 15 seconds. This is mainly needed when flying planes quite a distance away when there is no transmitter signal strength showing in the OSD.
Every little bit of change I make improves my racing flying including moving to a Taranis.
Most quads have installed:
1. Changing to all FrSky X4R receivers.
2. I have all Naze32 controllers except for one Kakute controller in the Martian. These are great and you also just solder wires straight to the board. I am running the latest Betaflight on most quads.

3. The speed controllers are DYS XM 20amp . I get Version 1 which are the same as Version 2 but do not have wires soldered on. Just have to remove the wires from Version 2.
4. The video transmitters are the SkyZone type. (now all Immersion Tramp - very good TXs)
5. Cameras are mainly the 1177 type that most use.
6. RCTimer 3amp BEC which is small and light.
7. HobbyKing E-OSD is just for the voltage but must install my Minim OSDs some time.
8. Just moving to all 4S LiPos and they provide more control.
9. I have just moved to three bladed props on everything as seem to be much better.
The last purchase was the Martian which is a Alien clone. I do not think I need any more of these quads (until the next one
) now after getting the Martian as it flies really great.
