2 aileron servos, total torque required not less than 120 oz./in. per wing.
Rudder servo(s) at least 180 oz./in. (see text) e.g. Hitec 5955TG or JR 8611a
Throttle/choke servo standard BB servo such as Hitec 425
Radio operated engine kill switch or servo operated choke strongly suggested
Single or dual radio battery packs at least 2100 mah total, preferably high current output cells.
Total capacity will be based on how much flight time is required.
Switch[es] for receiver batteries 2 or 3

The kit includes lightweight foam wheels and axles. These are light duty and may not last more
than a few flights, stronger wheels and axles are in our hardware kit. It also includes a tailwheel
assembly, wing tube (carbon fiber tube on 91” planes) and miscellaneous small hardware for
mounting the cowl, wings, stabs, and landing gear.
Please remember, this is a big airplane with high stresses on the controls. You must use high
performance servos, pushrods, linkages, horns, etc.
Flexing in linkage or loose hinges can
and will cause flutter of the control surfaces which will destroy the airplane in just a few
seconds.
Metal gear servos are required. Proper installation of hinges
is critical.
