FT mustang on 4S

[OrcaKid]

Hey, I’m new to this forum but I’m not new to RC. I am getting the FT mustang speed build kit (the 1016mm one). I have the spektrum smart 3S 2200s and 4S 2200s and I want to know if the 4S ones will fit and if the airframe can handle it. Any advice will help. Thanks!

I know the power pack C can take it, but i'm not sure it fits. Anyways, I will find out when its built.

not sure where everyone is...

Not familiar with how the Spectrum batteries compare size wise. The Gens Ace 3s 2200mah will fit the Mig-3 which is similar in size to the P-51 and uses the same power pod.

I know that the smart batteries are actually a bit smaller and a touch lighter than the other brands, (I used to have the gens ace) so it might work, but it would be nice if someone gave me the dimensions of the bay. Thanks!

The only way to know for sure is to try it. You could always scale the model up a bit if for more space. I'm sure someone on here has some experience with the Spectrum batteries and will chime in sooner or later.

Yeah, I guess I will wait and see, wait I have an idea. What are the dimensions of the gens ace 2200 3 cell? I think it might be similar to the smart 4 cells. That would help. Thanks!
