Status: offline 		Hopefully you guys can help me I have had a skyscooter pro II with the Hitec focus 3ss Am radio and it flies so well I do not want to tear it apart so what I am trying to find out is if Hitec has a flight pack for this radio. I have recently purchased a Multiplex Pico cub and am dying to fly it but have no radio to go in it if for some reason there is no flight pack for this radio could you please recommend electronic components I can buy seperatley (also is the reciever that comes with this radio the 3mb I think a pos or neg shift reciever thanks

Status: offline 		The cost of the individual components would be approaching the cost of a new radio system. The only plus in buying the individual components is that you will be able to get exactly what you need for the new airplane instead of the components that are prepackaged in the radio systems- some of which you will use with the new model and some parts you will not. You would still have to purchase a speed control if you go the way of a new radio system.

Status: offline 		I am curious what you recommend for a next radio for electric flight I want to purchase someting that will work well with the planes I do have the skyscooter pro II and the pico cub because I very much enjoy flying the electrics so if you could give me some recommondations because I plan on building other airplanes too I guess I should purchase a 4 of 5 channel so I have room for a little expansion I have noticed though that most of what the local hoobshop has here are transmitter only radios and I would like to purchase one with the reveiveand the servos to begin with and maybe 1 more speed control for now but also would like the ability to purchase more recievers and speed controls for other airplanes Thank you again for all your help

Status: offline 		The Flash 5X or the new Optic 6 would be a good choice. The only problem I see with going with a new system is that the receiver in your Sky Scooter Pro II would not be compatible with the new radio (the receiver in the sky scooter is Am where as the new radio systems are FM).

Status: offline 		If you get a new radio you could purchase a new receiver to use in the sky scooter. Something like the HFS-04MG, micro 555 or electron 6 receiver would work good int he sky scooter.

Replacement parts for the Sky Scooter or the Pico cub can be purchased through our service department. Currently, we are out of stock on the Sky Scooter parts you were asking for.
