    Are 3s and 4s batteries interchangeable?

    Thank you for your comments. Your right about the motors. I am wondering how much of the components are damaged after sitting outside for god knows how long. I figured the first steps would be to buy a new battery and charger. I have already installed the Naza-M software on my Mac and I think I...
