ADDITIONAL ITEMS REQUIRED
Flight Equipment
The Firebat ARF requires a three-channel radio with two
servos, a receiver and an electronic speed controller with
BEC. A full-size receiver and standard servos can be used.
You will also need a 10" [254mm] (or 12" [305mm]) servo
extension wire.
Flight performance and maneuverability can be improved
with dual aileron servos. You will need a mini servo for the
canard (elevator) with at least 30 oz. in. of torque and two
micro/mini servos for the ailerons with at least 15 oz. in. of
torque. You will also need a mini or micro receiver, a speed
controller and a 18" [457mm] (or 24" [610mm]) servo extension
wire. This will require a four-channel radio system with
mixing functions.
