E-flite P-38/F-5E Lightning Assembly Manual

You will need a 3-channel or greater transmitter (at least 4-channel

with optional rudders and/or steerable nose wheel), crystals (if

applicable), micro receiver, and 3 sub-micro servos (or up to 6

if using the optional rudders and steerable nose wheel). You can

choose to purchase a complete radio system that includes most

of these items or, if you are using an existing transmitter, simply

purchase the other required equipment separately.

Note: We highly recommend the crystal-free, interference-

free Spektrum

®

DX6 2.4GHz DSM

®

6-channel radio

system (SPM2460). The complete system includes four

S75 sub-micro servos and a 6-channel micro receiver.

Note: When using our recommended Brushless Power

System, you do not need to use a separate BEC or

receiver battery pack to power the radio gear as long as

you are using our recommended servos. This is because

the BECs of the two brushless ESCs are working in

parallel, allowing them to support up to 6 servos.

Note: When using our recommended Brushed Power

System, you MUST use a separate BEC or receiver

battery pack to power the radio gear if using more than

3 servos. This is because the BEC of the single brushed

ESC cannot reliably support more than 3 servos.

We recommend the use of a separate BEC (like the Ultimate BEC),

or a receiver pack and switch:
