Ok, anyway, I'll be asking A LOT of questions during the build! Ok, so what is a good basic 3D/imac setup? I already have the servos planned out, 5985 on rudder, and 985's all around. Should I use a Smart-Fly equalizer for matching the alirons? Or some other method. I have a Tanic 4200ma battery that was included (thanks Zak!). What regulater do I need? Thanks! |

First and for most, the reason it is called the slowest build thread is because it will be a while till I can save up enough money to buy all the parts. Right now I need to buy smart fly equalizers for the rudder, elivator, and alirons. 4 of them which equals lots of $$$$. Then there is the misc extension etc... Then I need to but 3 more Hs-985. $70 each. Yikes! All donations appreciated. hehehehe

You are using two RX's right? A simple and very durable setup is the Wolverine switches and Fromeco Regs and if you know anyone with a hitec programmer they can get all your servos matched on each surface. Less weight and clean setup.
