Starting out with FT mini’s

Looking to buy some electronics to get into the mini size FT plans. I’ve been building and flying for almost three years and have built most of the single engine full size FT planes. The stable is growing as I am getting much more proficient at flying and thus crashing less. Figured I’d try the minis and open up a new set of plans to build from. I really like the skins that are available as well.

So looking at the F pack vs the A pack and unsure what to do. Going to start with the mini mustang and also would like to do the corsair and arrow. I don’t need a ton of speed to suit my flying style but would like to have fun. Looking for recommendations as to what others are using please - motor, esc, and prop?

Thanks for all the help!

I'd go with the F pack all day!

as for electronics any
#1. 2204/2205 motor should work just make sure you stay near 2300kv
#2. I personally run a 20amp ESC and that allows me to put it in areas with little to no air circulation
#3. you should probably go with 5x5, 6x4, or 6x4.5
