Was out with the SO on a little walk and came across this in a trash pile. It all looks solid, and it seems that all the electronics are in place excluding the TX and the battery. I also found an extra main wing! Its a J-3 Cub brushless.

now. i need a TX, and a battery. i know that much. but I've never flown anything except a small blade chopper, so any suggestions or advice is welcome.

oh and since you love pics, here ya go.

Its a little dusty, but you should know how that is.

Anyone have a controler that would work? its ch2. also need a battery. looks like tower doesn't carry this brand. what are some other big name sites that i could source parts from? I have a local shop, but i doubt they will have the TX.

Wow, nice find. Parkzone stuff should bind with Spektrum radios, but do some Google Fu and make sure.

They do bind with Spektrum radios. A DX5 or DX6 would do nicely. I'd lean toward the DX6 as it is easier to program dual rates and the like. Nice score!

I just gave a spektrum dx5 away last week i would have gladly sent it your way.

 

[beason]

this one is listed as channel 2. is that one that will bind?

anyone else have anything? i dont want to drop a ton of cash into it until i know if i like it.

Do you mean CHANNEL 2 or MODE 2?

 

[beason]

it says channel 2 on the bottom. and the controllers are sold as "channel 1" "channel 2" I assume it is similar to the crystals that are used on the AM radios. wasn't sure if there was a way for this type to be binded to a radio with spectrum technology.

That may be one that isn't a Spektrum version. You can pick up a 2.4 GHz system for them cheaply though.
