Default RE: to use smartfly or not


ORIGINAL: gobigorgohome

Ok - so i am listening and appreciating what is being said. So what do i need to do then. As i have said i have not used a setup like this before. Is there certain things ( which smartfly - what batteries i can use ) that will help me out. I fly with a futaba 9c 2.4 and am using a faast 617 receiver.

Thanks to those who have responded so far.

On the sukhoi it only has one servo per wing - there are two for the elevator and one for the rudder. The jr 8711's are what is being used.
Given this, I wouldn't worry about a power expander. I'd run dual A123 batteries, each through an individual switch, to different ports on the reciever.

Thats essentially a 50cc setup servo wise.
