The E-flite EC-1500 Twin is a revolutionary aircraft that offers a unique flight experience for a large range of pilots! This multi-motor model carries echoes of major civil and military freight transport aircraft but has an unbelievable series of abilities and options no other airplane can match. Featuring 3S and 4S suitable power systems with custom-made 5-blade counter-rotating props, the EC-1500's flight envelope incorporates everything from sluggish and scale-like to sport flying and even aggressive 3D aerobatic abilities! You can fly from paved, turf and dirt surfaces; from snow with the included optional-use skis; or from water using the optional float set (sold independently). It likewise consists of factory-installed LED lights, a practical freight door, and a fully painted surface you can tailor with the included Ohio Air National Guard, Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Militaries, Navy, and other markings. It's likewise been updated with Smart electronics to provide more abilities than ever previously, including differential thrust, motor reversing, and real-time telemetry data!
This upgraded and updated E-flite® EC-1500 Twin 1.5m features a ground-up style optimized for capability, versatility, and FUN to provide a flying experience you simply can't get with any other airplane! It's successfully lots of aircrafts in one, with a wide flight envelope that consists of sluggish and scale-like to sport flying and even aggressive 3D aerobatic capability. The twin power systems include brushless outrunner motors with custom-made five-blade counter-rotating props – including upgraded style bolt-to-the-motor prop adapters for simpler and a lot more secure prop installation. This setup provides excellent performance with a THREE 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery, or you can set up a 4S battery for the power to hover and endless vertical capability — without modifications or upgrades! Plus, the motors are matched to a special 40-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Dual Smart ESC that can supply a range of real-time power system-related telemetry data with Smart and non-Smart batteries by means of suitable receivers (including the AR8360T set up in the BNF® Standard version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters. The BNF® Standard version is equipped with an AR8360T receiver to supply full-range, real-time telemetry data, including battery voltage, ESC temp, and more — plus differential thrust and motor reversing for unique ground handling and other abilities — together with the benefits 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, likewise makes several wing configuration options possible – including “crow” and/or full-span aileron/flaperon/spoileron setups.
There are 8 factory-installed servos, including metal-geared servos on all of the control surfaces plus the functional freight door so you can carry and drop innovative payloads from the large freight bay. Realistic-looking LED landing, navigation, and simulated strobe lights are powered from the flight battery so you can fly from dawn till sunset — from paved, turf, or dirt surfaces; off snow using the included skis; or from large ponds and lakes using optional drifts (sold independently). Get rid of the magnetically protected nose cone to set up a GoPro® or comparable cam for taping aerial HD video footage or mount a separate FPV cam on the large leading hatch (cameras/gear sold independently). Plus, you can use the included decals to tailor the now fully-painted gray surface with Ohio Air National Guard, Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Militaries, 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 interested in scale-like, sport, and even aggressive 3D aerobatic flying.
The Plug-N-Play (PNP) version comes out of package with a factory-installed power system and servos that are ready to link to the suitable receiver of your choice (sold independently), plus the transmitter and battery you supply (likewise sold independently). Simply set up the receiver, finish any last assembly, and fly!
Both the PNP and BNF Standard versions are equipped with an exclusive Spektrum™ Avian™ Dual Smart Lite ESC that can supply a range of real-time power system-related telemetry data including battery voltage, ESC temp, and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – by means of suitable receivers (including the AR8360T set up in the BNF® Standard version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped 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, launches and landings, together with the capability to carry out unique aerobatic maneuvers.
The EC-1500's unique, ground-breaking style makes it efficient in sluggish and scale-like flying, sport flying, and even aggressive 3D aerobatics — all in the same flight! And with various landing equipment, freight carrying, cam installing, and other options, it's exceptionally flexible, too.
The functional flaps can take a trip both ways, and you can pick how large the flaps and ailerons are by installing the included joiners in one of 2 various ways. And because a separate servo controls each surface, several wing configuration and blending options are offered (depending upon the variety of channels of the receiver and transmitter you use), including full-span ailerons that can provide substantially increased roll authority, flaperons, spoilerons, and even crow!

Skill Level 3 aircraft, like this one, appropriate for more knowledgeable RC pilots who currently have the skills to assemble, establish and fly comparable class designs. This PNP version requires more experience and skills to assemble and fly than the BNF Standard version because you will need to set up a receiver that does not currently consist of effectively tuned AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. It's not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft for brand-new pilots, a “next step after a fitness instructor” model for low-time RC pilots, or very first 3D capable model for intermediate pilots. You need to have the experience and skills essential to successfully fly greater performance, 3D capable and/or twin-powered designs like the E-flite Twin Timber 1.6m, Timber X 1.2m, Additional 300 3D 1.3m, Ultra Stick 1.1m, or other comparable class designs prior to attempting to fly the EC-1500 Twin 1.5m.
