ORIGINAL: pigcop2

Thanks for all the input. I've decided to go for the best of both worlds and get a 4 star 20. It looks just like the 40, but electric. Its a bit smaller than the 40, but should fly as well I would imagine Now. Any suggestions for power?
I’d use the SIG recommendation, or possibly the next size up.
The maxx products page http://www.maxxprod.com/mpi/mpi-264.html has columns for model weight so figure out what the weight will be and order accordingly.
You can use the chart for any model. Package 46A would work for the 4 star 40.
You might save a nickel by gathering parts from multiple sources but the stuff at maxx should be a good starting point until you gain experience
