Possible electric newbie
I got the hankerin' for a new plane today, and I am considering an electric. I want something 3D, so I was looking at the Tribute 3D Profile ARF or the Yak 54F ARF both from Horizon Hobby. I am completely out of my element, so feel free to make suggestions.
Since I have nothing that is mini or electric and will need everything, I'm trying to watch the budget. I was going to use the provided motor, gearbox and prop. I guess I will need servos, receiver, battery, charger and speed control.
Here are my questions.
1. I was planning on using HS-81 servos. Will these work. Recommendations?
2. I have a JR 700R receiver that I use on my gas planes. It's really small and light. Can I use this?
3. Will these planes hover on this setup? If so, how well. I would like something that will fly out of one, but it doesn't have to blast off.
4. What kind of conditions can I fly this plane it. Can I fly it outside with a slight breeze? I am mainly looking for a plane to fly out in the street in front of my house or in my back yard.
Again, I'm open to suggestions and thanks in advance for any help.
