Default RE: Going flying for the first time in March

Sometimes you can get everything used from one seller or you may have to get it piece by piece but you still save some money. You may even find a complete set-up with another plane, etc..for what you would pay new for just the accessories. Depending on the club where you joined, ask there as well and you may pick-up what you need or someone may give you some things they have as surplus.
The Evolution engine on that plane will run fine on 10% nitro. Any higher percentage only costs more and won't do much for performance....sort of like putting super octane in a vehicle designed for regular.
Look for some spare propellers too as those stock 3-blades like to break on not-so-graceful landings!
