Help! (Getting back into this..)
I used to fly gas, I had an 0.15OS High wing trainer, and an 0.46OSFX high wing sport stik.
Now I'm in 4th year university and I want a plane to fly around, nothing too hardcore, nothing too expensive.
I'm looking at an AirfoilZ Yak, or similar narrow profile foamie with a wingspan less than 3 feet. 50-80$USD for the various kits
I gather that I'll want a Brushless Hacker A20-20 or similar & Brushless ESC (~100$USD)
I've got a transmitter (Airtronics VG6DR) and Reciever (FMA M5)
I'll need a LiPo Cell (11.1v, 1300-1500mAh) (3c?) and charger (120$) - FMA? ThunderPower?
and 4 Micro Servos (HS-55 or Eflight 27) (~55$USD)
... Can anyone reccommend cheaper alternatives to anything on my list, while maintaining a Narrow wingspan? (I don't have much room in my apartment to store it)
Can anyone reccommend other foamie-type small ARF/RTF kits, that will also be fun to fly indoors as well as out?
Does anyone see these come up used ever? I don't mind used. Most of my gear has been used, but I don't see used Brushless or Used LiPo/chargers or anything like that on the forum. Just really high end stuff (From what I gather in the description)
Bottom line: HELP THIS FLYBOY GET HIS WINGS BACK!
