Dt swiss new aero are ovalized 2mm spokes and require a hub with keyhole spoke holes for the 3.3mm blade.

So many places I could post this but I'll start here. I'm looking to build up a dynamo front wheel for the TAW race in June. Prob a disk brake one to go on a Kinesis 4S which is has QR dropouts.
Going to get a 32H SP dynamo hub, is it worth getting a 12mm thru axle hub and using a QR adaptor so that the wheel is future proofed in the event I buy a new frame?
For the rim, I was looking at the DT Swiss RR 511 - Is this a good choice or are their better/cheaper options out there?
And spoke wise, Ideally I want aero spokes - are the new DT Aero ones @mdcc_tester mentioned recently a good bet?
Thanks!
