F14 battery

[Donovan Mahoney]

I'm thinking of saving up to buy the f14 and everything to build It but I was wondering what the recommended specs for the battery is because John didn't say anything in the video so if you do please let me know. Thanks!

Weird that they don't say that anywhere. Watching the build video I heard the ESC beep 6 times, so it's a 6s battery, but that's all I know.
Edit: The F-18 calls for a 4000-6000mah 6s battery. I would assume the F-14 wants a similar battery.

The 70mm twin EDF master series jets use the same power system. 70mm EDF with 80amp ESC using a 6S battery. For the F-14 I would go with a 6000mAh 6S pack...and this is what I fly in mine. Though my power system is from the E-flite Su30.

Do you know if they sell one of those or would I be better off finding one on Amazon, horizon hobby, etc...

Check out SMC Racing. They have some of the best batteries I've ever used at really good prices.
