RE: SMALLEST RADIO
Hi,
GWS and others make micro receiver and servos that are very light. They are currently used with electric motors and electronic speed controls. The motor battery is usually sued to power the receiver and servos through a battery eliminator circuit in the speed control. This setup is small and quit, thus suitable for flying anywhere. If you used a glow engine, you should consider a full range micro receiver which is only slightly heavier the a typical micro receiver along with a AAA size battery pack.
