Hi joey, relax you are in the beginners forum and yes at the top of the first of each forums page is a button to start a new thread and this is a perfect place for your question and probably best with a new question to start you own thread rather than to tack on to someone elses but I will try to answer your question here not a problem.

Congratulations on your choice of the Sensai , it is a superb electric trainer and definitely my preference. I have flown and mentored also with the Apprentice but much prefer the Sensai for use when training in electrics. It is in my opinion a better flying airplane and requires less expensive batterys as well. As a matter of fact I have one right now on the bench that I am setting up for one of our new more senior members. He will be flying his with our 'Cordless' buddy cord system.

If you purchased yours with the tactic receiver and you already have the complete Spectrum system That's no problem, just set the Tactic receiver aside and instead use the Spectrum Rx. The Futaba J type plugs will work in the Spectrum Rx although you may have to shave off tabs which is easy to do. I am not a Spectrum user so do not know if Spectrum requires tab shaving or not. Each of the plugs are labeled and it very easy to set up There is even a candy drop door that you do not have to use but it will need to be plugged to an extra channel if you choose to use it. Note don't mess with these things or cameras or any of that while you are just beginning though.
