This setup delivers outstanding efficiency with a THREE 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery, or you can set up a four battery for the power to hover and unlimited vertical capability — without modifications or upgrades! Plus, the motors are matched to an unique 40-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Double Smart ESC that can supply a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data with Smart and non-Smart batteries by means of suitable receivers (consisting of the AR8360T installed in the BNF® Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters. The BNF® Basic version is equipped with an AR8360T receiver to supply full-range, real-time telemetry data, consisting of battery voltage, ESC temp, and more — plus differential thrust and motor reversing for unique ground handling and other capabilities — together with the advantages of AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. This 8-channel receiver, plus selectable-size ailerons and functional flaps that can take a trip both ways, also makes several wing setup options possible – consisting of "crow" and/or full-span aileron/flaperon/spoileron setups.
There are 8 factory-installed servos, consisting of metal-geared servos on all of the control surface areas plus the functional cargo door so you can carry and drop imaginative payloads from the large cargo 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 utilizing the included skis; or from large ponds and lakes utilizing optional drifts (sold individually). Remove the magnetically secured nose cone to set up a GoPro® or similar cam for tape-recording aerial HD footage or install a separate FPV cam on the large top hatch (cameras/gear sold individually). Plus, you can use the included decals to customize the now fully-painted gray surface with Ohio Air National Guard, Flying Force, Army, Coast Guard, Militaries, Navy, and other markings to individualize your model! And the outcome is the most capable, versatile, and enjoyable to fly twin yet for a wide range of intermediate to knowledgeable pilots interested in scale-like, sport, and even aggressive 3D aerobatic flying.
Currently own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make entering the air rapidly and with the very best control experience possible much easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos, and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed, so all you require to do is bind the receiver to a suitable transmitter, finish any last assembly, and fly!
This EC-1500 Twin 1.5m is equipped with special Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the impacts of wind and turbulence to provide a locked-in feel that makes it look like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits together with automated self-leveling that can be switched on and off at the flip of a switch! And if you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, bind the receiver typically, and just AS3X will be active.
Both the PNP and BNF Basic variations are equipped with an unique Spektrum™ Avian™ Double Smart Lite ESC that can supply a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data consisting of battery voltage, ESC temp, and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – by means of suitable receivers (consisting of the AR8360T installed in the BNF® Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (consisting of 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 offer enhanced ground dealing with for much easier taxiing, takeoffs and landings, together with the ability to carry out unique aerobatic maneuvers.
The EC-1500's unique, ground-breaking style makes it efficient in slow and scale-like flying, sport flying, and even aggressive 3D aerobatics — all in the exact same flight! And with various landing equipment, cargo carrying, cam mounting, and other options, it's incredibly versatile, too.
The functional flaps can take a trip both ways, and you can select how large the flaps and ailerons are by installing the included joiners in one of 2 various ways. And since a separate servo controls each surface, several wing setup and mixing options are readily available (depending on the variety of channels of the receiver and transmitter you use), consisting of full-span ailerons that can provide substantially increased roll authority, flaperons, spoilerons, and even crow!
The factory-installed twin brushless power system features a 40-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Double Smart Lite ESC plus specially-tuned motors that provide an abundance of thrust with a THREE 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery.
