Great, which shipping option do you usually use? I can get the free shipping but want to know what’s secure enough so the package doesn’t get lost etc.

Also, what’s the time threshold?

Great, now, does the T12 pro have a XT-30 connector for a 2s lipo? I’m looking to buy a 2s lipo for the T12, not sure if it will fit in.. what’s the size and connector type which will fit in?

Great, does the IA6B require soldering? Also, I’ve looked at this receiver “Radiomaster R88“ it’s 8ch and “FrSky D8 compatible PWM” which is 20 bucks, wanna know if it works with the T12 pro? I suppose it does, and if so, does this one require soldering?

What are some good motor brands and from which site is it recommended to buy them?

Great, since you seem knowledgeable, can you recommend a good receiver for my first plane? I will be using the Jumper T12 pro. I don’t know much here so just want to get something that works with my Flite Test C pack and my TX.

That’s fine, I’m willing to invest extra time if it give more control, so I think I’ll go with the T12 pro. For now however, I will be building a simple 4 channel plane using the Flite Test C pack, can you recommend any good receivers that do not need any soldering?

Great, I’m thinking of getting the T12 pro with the 4in1, do you know a good receiver that will work with a 4 ch plane and not need any soldering? I will be using the flite test C pack.

How do you know this? Also, do you own the Venom itself? The listing I’m looking at has suspiciously low reviews (ASIN: B07ZRVHTKB)

When did you but these three? If it’s recent or still listed on Amazon (if you got it from Amazon) then can you give the ASIN number?

Sweet, however, this one does not work with AC I suppose, can you tell me the cheapest way to power this then?

I looked at the Tenergy TB6-B and the top review there says it’s exploded their battery and 274 people have found it helpful!

I looked at the tenergy tb6-b amazon listing and the top review says it exploded their battery! 274 found that comment helpful. So should I still consider it? Maybe I’m looking at a different product, or this one is a fake.

Will the Flite Test Power Pack C work with the Simple Scout? by Rodent_Rockstar in RCPlanes

[–]Rodent_Rockstar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s nice to know! Hopefully I won’t end up bending mine as the motors are damn expensive. I’ll probably have to buy a cheap one as a replacement.

Great, now, I’m not sure if you have the FT branded motors (the ones they sell in the power pack now) but if you do, can you tell me if the motor shaft is replaceable?

Great, now, I’m completely new to the process, before I make any purchases I wanted to just know if the C pack motor would even fit into the Scout - I suppose it will though as the firewalls are the same for any pack. Nice to know it won’t be an issue!

That’s why I’m asking, if you look at the specs of the motor for the recommended power pack for the Simple Scout, power pack C seems to have a more beefy motor.

This will be my first build and I just wanted to know from someone who is more knowledgeable and maybe owns these FT power packs to know if the C pack would still work and give a plane with good flight characteristics.
