That’s awesome man! I think if you can find a big enough 2s battery you won’t cook the motor wires on it

Have this great plane also, at my second battery people drove by and start talking with me. And before I knew I was flying the plane for 40minutes on a 2s 2200. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

Mine arrived without the wing stabilizer bar, fun fact if you're into archery an arrow cut to fit seems to be the ticket. Fit snug and the cg seems to be dead on. Will know more tomorrow after the maiden

I almost just did the same thing with mine. The elevator was backwards and I didn't notice until I was doing the final check. Like how did I miss that?! Maiden is Tomorrow.

I have been looking at the 1600 for a while. I have looked everywhere for replacement wings in case of need, but have not been able to find any.

Looking at getting this very soon as PNP. Am I right in thinking all that is needed is a tx & rx combo + battery? If so, what type of battery connection? And will flysky 6channel tx be OK with associated rx?
