Been researching electronics. I think I'm gonna go with the 590 red motors. Seem good and cheap. Where to buy?
Also with the stock board run lipo? I have some 5000mah just collecting dust.
Speaking of boards... should I upgrade to the tk24? Board or is there another board at better value out there?
For transmiter I'm looking at either a cheap spektrum DXE or the 10 channel fly sky radio. Any recommendations?

would a Turnigy 9X 9Ch Transmitter w/ Module & 8ch Receiver (Mode 2) (v2 Firmware) be good for the imex/taigen tiger 1 that im getting? or a

No sweat, was about to post again in your other thread on subject. Others may have materials to work with as well such as fillers, plasticard, etc . I still use squadron putty for filling on plastic. Sorry for the hijack OP!

So after playing for a bit i have taking it apart. There are extra holes in the hull from where switches from the older system would have gone. And im going to take out the battery box. Probably no tonight though lol. Those motors are so tiny lol.
Did run great out of the box though. Very happy.

I'd keep it in the hull somewhere. One less wire to hang up the upper/turret when you take it off for maintenance. Or if your going to put it in the turret, put a mini jst connector in so you can disconnect to take the hull apart.

I had some foam board laying around. Snug now. Next i am going to clean up the rest of the hull, remount the speaker, and rx18. Still figuring out where to put the on/off switch. Im am trying to find a almost hidden spot. I have a few ideas but time is limited m to f. Baby steps. Lol

I know Im new at this, but how are you going to get your battery out to charge it.
Im getting one of these for my tiger 1, that way I wont have to keep lifting the body off to charge it.
I can just have the end by one of the hatches and pull it out to charge.

The on off switch is a 3 pole switch. You can resolder it and add a charging cable to it. I am off to work but ill post a pic tonight showing. But my plan is to have a charging hookup so i can charge with the battery still in.
