Hi guys I am looking for some advice here I have been flying 2 cycle for a bout 3 years at a local field up here and would like to get into electric flight, not necessarily indoor but at the fields around here. I am looking for a kit or ARF that is capable of most tricks but also docile if needed and can handle a bit of wind.
So what do Ii need motor, battery radio Please help me make a wise decision..
Thanks
