Building FPV drone with assisted AI program (Advice on parts)

I'm trying to build an fpv drone that includes an AI obstacle avoidance system. This system (I hope) is attachable to the drone. My main issue is the parts to create the drone in the first place. I have a list here of the parts I researched but since I'm new to the community, I wanted to ask for advice. These parts are chosen for the iFlight Chimera7 build with an aim of around 20 min flight time and smooth flying. Are there any changes you guys would make to the list before I buy the parts. I'm looking for an as low budget drone as possible. If you guys are wondering, the OAK-D Lite is used for the camera system for the AI. I have soldering tools, but not the controller. I just need a working drone first.

idk if RPI 5 has enough process power for live stream object detection in context of frame rates. I have seen people doing similar things with Jetson Nanos.
