The E-flite EC-1500 Twin is an innovative airplane that uses a unique flight experience for a large range of pilots! This multi-motor model brings echoes of full-blown civil and military freight transportation airplane but has an amazing range of abilities and alternatives no other plane can match. Including three and 4S compatible power systems with custom 5-blade counter-rotating props, the EC-1500's flight envelope encompasses everything from slow and scale-like to sport flying and even aggressive 3D aerobatic abilities! You can fly from paved, lawn and dirt surface areas; from snow with the included optional-use skis; or from water using the optional float set (offered independently). It likewise consists of factory-installed LED lights, a functional freight door, and a completely painted surface you can customize with the included Ohio Air National Guard, Flying Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy, and other markings. It's likewise been upgraded with Smart electronic devices to offer more abilities than ever in the past, including differential thrust, motor reversing, and real-time telemetry data!
This updated and upgraded E-flite® EC-1500 Twin 1.5m includes a ground-up design optimized for ability, flexibility, and enjoyable to provide a flying experience you merely can't get with any other plane! It's effectively numerous aircrafts in one, with a wide flight envelope that consists of slow and scale-like to sport flying and even aggressive 3D aerobatic ability. The twin power systems include brushless outrunner motors with custom five-blade counter-rotating propellers – including updated design bolt-to-the-motor prop adapters for simpler and a lot more safe prop installation. This setup delivers excellent efficiency with a 3S 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery, or you can install a 4S battery for the power to hover and unrestricted vertical ability — without adjustments or upgrades! Plus, the motors are matched to an unique 40-amp Spektrum™ Bird™ Dual Smart ESC that can offer a range of real-time power system-related telemetry information with Smart and non-Smart batteries through compatible receivers (including the AR8360T set up in the BNF® Basic variation) and Spektrum AirWare™ geared up transmitters. The BNF® Basic variation is geared up with an AR8360T receiver to offer full-range, real-time telemetry information, including battery voltage, ESC temp, and more — plus differential thrust and motor reversing for special ground handling and other abilities — together with the advantages of AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. This 8-channel receiver, plus selectable-size ailerons and practical flaps that can travel both ways, likewise makes numerous wing setup alternatives possible – including "crow" and/or full-span aileron/flaperon/spoileron setups.
There are eight factory-installed servos, including metal-geared servos on all of the control surface areas plus the practical freight door so you can bring and drop imaginative payloads from the big freight bay. Realistic-looking LED landing, navigation, and simulated strobe lights are powered from the flight battery so you can fly from dawn up until dusk — from paved, lawn, or dirt surface areas; off snow using the included skis; or from big ponds and lakes using optional floats (offered independently). Eliminate the magnetically protected nose cone to install a GoPro® or similar camera for taping aerial HD video or install a different FPV camera on the big leading hatch (cameras/gear offered independently). Plus, you can utilize the included decals to customize the now fully-painted gray surface with Ohio Air National Guard, Flying Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy, and other markings to customize your model! And the outcome is the most capable, flexible, and enjoyable to fly twin yet for a large range of intermediate to knowledgeable pilots thinking about scale-like, sport, and even aggressive 3D aerobatic flying.
Currently own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) airplane make getting into the air rapidly and with the best control experience possible simpler than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos, and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver set up, so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, complete any final assembly, and fly!
This EC-1500 Twin 1.5m is geared up with unique Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the results of wind and turbulence to provide a locked-in feel that makes it look like you're flying a much larger plane. Optional-use SAFE Select uses pitch and bank angle limitations together with automated self-leveling that can be switched on and off at the flip of a switch! And if you do not wish to enable the SAFE Select functions, bind the receiver normally, and just AS3X will be active.
Both the PNP and BNF Basic variations are geared up with an unique Spektrum™ Bird™ Dual Smart Lite ESC that can offer a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry information including battery voltage, ESC temp, and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – through compatible receivers (including the AR8360T set up in the BNF® Basic variation) and Spektrum AirWare™ geared up transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6, 8, 10 and 20, iX12, iX14, iX20, and others) while you fly. Plus, reversing and differential thrust deal enhanced ground dealing with for simpler taxiing, departures and landings, together with the ability to carry out special aerobatic maneuvers.
The EC-1500's unique, ground-breaking design makes it capable of slow and scale-like flying, sport flying, and even aggressive 3D aerobatics — all in the same flight! And with numerous landing gear, freight carrying, camera installing, and other alternatives, it's exceptionally flexible, too.
The practical flaps can travel both ways, and you can select how big the flaps and ailerons are by setting up the included joiners in one of two different ways. And due to the fact that a different servo controls each surface area, numerous wing setup and blending alternatives are readily available (depending on the number of channels of the receiver and transmitter you utilize), including full-span ailerons that can provide significantly increased roll authority, flaperons, spoilerons, and even crow!
The factory-installed twin brushless power system includes a 40-amp Spektrum™ Bird™ Dual Smart Lite ESC plus specially-tuned motors that provide an abundance of thrust with a 3S 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery.
