Yes more batteries are needed for that plane or you fly for 8min. and charge for an hr. then 8min and charge. I put a 480 brushless on one and a 2100 lipo and man it was faster than the wings would hold up. Broke one of the stabalizer cords and it folded in half was a trip for sure. The wing unfolded kinda and got it landed hot glue and 5min it was flying again. If your a beginer then extra props, batteries, some foam safe CA, Tape (packing) and you can fly awhile. I also used the bomb drop dealy and had a blast with that trying to hit certain targets. Got close but never hit exactly right on lol. You can get or make small drop bombs or they have a parachute man also. Great for kids to have fun with.
