What do I need to get in the air?

New to R/C?  Here is a list of everything else you will need to get in the air.  

 

ITEM ONE - Transmitter & Receiver

You need a minimum of 5 channel transmitter & receiver to control the craft.  Four channels are used for flight and the fifth is to set the flight mode. Option 1 is What I use:

Spektrum 6700 DX6 6 Channel System w/ AR610 Receiver

DX6i 6CH DSMX Radio System with AR610 Receiver

ITEM TWO - Battery Pack

2200-5000mAh 3 cell LiPo battery.  I prefer the lighter packs even though the flight times are reduced the flight characteristics seem better the lighter you can keep the craft.

Turnigy 2200mAh 3S 20C Lipo Pack HobbyKing RC Battery
