Default RE: Field Equipment

Wow! Okay, I learned something today. I didn't realize that the field battery in my hobby box was powerful enough to run glow charger, electric starter, fuel pump AND charge TX and RX. I feel smarter!

In response to Evader....I too am just starting out. I purchased a Hobbico field combo pack from my LHS for I think around $120. Comes with field box, electric starter, power panel, glow driver, electric fuel pump with coiled fuel line, and field battery. I thought it was a good price, and there was the added convience of everything in one box! The hobby box needed to be assembled and painted. I recommend it highly! I will, however, carry a 60cc sirenge for backup fuel delivery.
