So if you buy an arebird or similiar package deal and want that second plane you need to buy all your electronics and motor again
This is definately true. I took this into consideration.
However, I will have two flyable planes. If I transfer engine and electroncis from first to second plane, only one can fly.
Seeing other club members come to the field with several planes I see that they often have several flyable planes at once. I am sure there may be planes that they have that can't be flown because they moved the motor and servos, but for the first two planes, I wanted to keep them both flying so, for me, this was not a concern.
