RE: help first time build
That would be a good engine choice for the 4*. It won't be a rocket ship & will fly just fine. The * series is not known for it's speed, just an easy,relaxing flying plane !! The standard servos will work just fine. You can get a lot of money tied up in all the "premium" equipment, ( digital servos, all the premium hardware, name brand stuff that costs an arm & a leg). The truth is, that the standard stuff you get in most kits will work just fine for normal & even an aggressive style of sport flying. If ya want to spend money for no reason or impress the other guys with all the high dollar stuff on your plane, then go ahead & buy that stuff. 90% of all sport pilots will NOT be able to tell the difference bewteen the two! Good Luck
