Is this a good Skywalker deal ?

£165 inc delivery

Receiver ready

Included:
Servos: 4 x 9g
Motor: 3714-KV920
Propeller: 9060E
ESC: 40A
1 x 4s 3000mah

Also is that a good set-up (I'm not up to aerobatics or blistering speed yet) ?
Plus would it run OK on 3s 3000/5000mah ? (cos I've got plenty of those already)

You will get nearly 1 hour flight from a 5000 mah 3S so thats fine, price doesnt look too bad, what are the servos ?

Hi,

The list mentions a 4S lipo, might be worth checking the motor specs to be sure it can run on 4S as my quick check suggests it is rated 3S but not 4S.

No idea what servos, I'll have to email them and ask
It's a dealer in Norway

Seems very reasonable as long as I don't get hit for duties

Main point is that my brain hurts trying to figure out and source in all the parts needed for a kit build and these folks supply it all in one pack

It's costing you an extra tenner ordering from Norway rather than China :)

It mentions '9g servos'
I would strongly suggest you invest in decent servos considering the amount of money in electronics you may be putting on/in it.

Getting metal geared servos is really the way to go if you want reliability and reduce the risk of a (plastic) gear stripping and crashing the plane.

They don't do a complete PnP kit from China

True, but in fairness you can get most of the parts you want from the UK for little money :)
