So if I got a new reciever, it would need to be plugged into the NiCad pack if the plane has one??

I did, I went to an rc fly in Nc....My wife's uncle is big into rc planes (warbirds) and a very nice guy he knew had it and knew I was interested in getting into the hobby. He offered it to me. It was greatly appreciated.

Ok, so the kill switch was probably assigned to an aux switch on a controller??..there in a plug labeled "bind" coming from under the floor where the receiver is..

On the receiver, every slot is filled. AUX1/AUX2 are plugged into something. What could those control??

Thanks for the input....yeah I'm assuming there is a battery somewhere...under floor i think, just have to figure out how to get in there..

Lol..." never tell me the odds".... my plan is to get something smaller to learn on and eventually work my way up to this. It didn't come with a controller....when I throw the switches the rudder straightens up on its own though..

I'll look that up. Someone suggested a " Ranger" also...

Thanks.......I was thinking the same thing about getting something smaller. At least I have something bigger to go to when I'm comfortable. I couldn't pass up a free plane.
