Hi go to www.victorvalleyrcflyers.com and then hit the newsletter button on top and look at them from April on. There are three articles on beginning electrics that will help you out. I would put an axi 2820-12 with 40 amp Jeti ESC and one 3 cell 3700 ma battery. I have this combo in a 81 inch Cub and works just fine. Also consider using separate receiver battery. Norm
