Default Need help with setup

Hi all,

I've messed with glow planes for a while and just wanted something new to try out. I bought a great plane Fundango(think thats what its called), and puting a 400 motor on it. I am kinda lost as to the battery and speed control combo and hope you could help me out.

I want to get Pico flight pack from horizon. cost about $80 and comes with a speed control, two micro servo, battery and a 4 channel reciever for my JR radio. The batterry is 7.2v/150mah. Would this be enought power for a 400 motor or the should i get the 9.6v/700mah like the instruction sugest? If I get the 9.6v would the speed control be able to handle the 8 cell(9.6v) or would it only be able to handle the 6 cell(7.2v) that came with it. I really do not know enought about park flyer yet to figure out what works with what. Generally would a speed control work with just about any battery? Thanks
