It appears that you are unfamiliar with electric power systems, so I would suggest that an electric pattern airplane is probably not the best way to introduce oneself to electric power. In learning about how to choose, operate, and maintain the correct battery and ESC for an intended application, outfitting a smallish foamy or park flyer would be much less expensive to make a mistake on during the learning process.<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I am looking at getting an electric motor, but
I do not understand what battery I can use. The one Speed
Controller states: 2 -6 lipo cells and the other states 2-12 lipo cells.
But when I look at batteries it states: 3C or 2C. I think that means
cell. Which controller size should I look at? What size
of packs are people flying in their planes? Are people hooking up more
than one pack? </font></div>
