Default seperates for Hummingbird

Want to fix my rotating hummingbird?

Am I missing anything?

GY240
GWS ICS 100
GWS ICS 50
Berg 6 Receiver
Futaba 7Ch

Do I need a mixing board?
What recommendations for Lipos?
Do I need Voltage or current limiting device for this lipo?

Thanks for your help

newheli,
You will not need a mixing board if you are using the Futaba gy240 hh gyro and separate ESCs. Might I say that you will be VERY happy with the GY240. It is a bit heavy, so I think that you will need a 3 cell LiPo battery to provide the lifting power you will need. One benefit to 3 cell LiPos is that it provides the tial with more power. One disadvantage is that it is hard on the tail motors. Depending on what tail motor you are using, you may need to go with a high frequency tail ESC to protect the tail motor. Schulze and TREC are two good models.

Oh, where in Ohio?
