30cc Sbach 342 help please

[Craig Spence]

Hi all,

I haven't posted on here for some time, I'm coming back into flying after a 3 year break and im shocked at the vast changes if im honest.

So to the topic, I will be treating myself in January to a pilot rc Sbach 342 30cc.

I have loads of questions and need help if you could.

1; The model weighs 4.85kg (as it comes). It requires x6 servos, what torque should I be looking at on them?, also does the throttle servo need to be of high quality?.

2; I am looking at LiFe battery's for the receiver, what mah will I require 3000+?

3; what battery should I have for the engine?, DLE 30cc.

4; Is a battery backer the way forward or dual batteries with dual harnesses suffice?.

5; Can you get 20x4wide wooden props? and would this be ok for DLE 30cc. Prop range (18x8, 18x10, 19x8 & 20x8.

6; I take that I will need a kill switch?.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Craig.
