    FMS T28 1400mm version?

    I recently had the good fortune to acquire 2 FMS T28 1400mm warbirds from a gentleman who sustained a neck injury and may be unable to fly for the foreseeable future. No where in any documentation can I determine what version they are. I believe they are V3 because the V4 version has gear suspension and these do not. Requires a 14.8V battery, has a 50 amp ESC, but am having difficulty deciding whether to run a 2400 or 4000 mAh lipo. Any help will be appreciated.

      Hi

      I have V1 with has a 500Kv motor, other versions I don't know I thought they get 540Kv and even more, but not sure.
      I fly mine with a 4S5000 lipo and they fit great and give good flying times to.

      PS esc 50a looks like V1

          If you have the 4250-500kv motor in any of your planes, you can fly it 5s stock, I have the silver V3 version and flew it at Nall last year. R.
