Well, I'm sure we can offer some level of help if we knew what it was. Older ARF just isn't enough to go on, ya know?

DitchDoc,

You have the right idea. Especially with some Dymond offerings, you want to get help from an experienced RC'er.

When you find that person, and fill him in on the details of the ARF, I expect he will recommend an alternate first plane, and save the one you have for some later date, when you have experience. You'll spend about the same money.

Just my 2ΒΆ worth,
Dave Olson

By the time you get the parts together for 380 sized airplane(motor, speed controller, battery), you will probably be close to the price of one of the bind-and-fly planes with a radio. What model is it?
