The big, easy-to-access battery compartment can accommodate everything from 1300mAh to 3200mAh packs.The model is designed to accept an optional float set (sold separately). Installation takes just a few minutes and all the necessary hardware is included.This Bind-N-Fly Basic model is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX receiver featuring AS3X (Artificial Stabilization–3-aXis) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence. The result is a heightened sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you're flying a much larger, expertly tuned aircraft. If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection technology built into the receiver. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual. With SAFE Select enabled, you get pitch and bank angle limits that keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down and also prevent excessive climb or dive angles, along with automatic self-leveling that instantly returns the airplane to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the center position.
