Introduction
The original Timber® recorded the thrill of unbelievable Brief Takeoff and Landing (STOL) abilities in a style including stylish flight performance and ultra-friendly handling. From low-time to veryly|really} experienced pilots, nearly everyone delights in flying the Timber–however some desire it had much more aerobatic ability. The E-flite® Timber X 1.2m combines the STOL abilities of the original model with a brand-new wing design including extra-large ailerons and flaps, plus a bigger rudder and elevator and a more effective 3S and 4S suitable power system, to also deliver 3D performance you'd get out of a full-scale aerobat!





Features

Incredible Brief Takeoff and Landing (STOL) plus 3D abilities

Enlarged and extra-large control surfaces with double-beveled hinge lines

6 durable and factory-installed high-torque, metal-geared servos

High-power 3S and 4S suitable brushless outrunner motor and 50-amp ESC

Spektrum™ AR631 6-channel receiver with industry-leading DSMX® technology

Unequaled stability and precision of AS3X® technology for smoother flight performance

Easy to fly with optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope security

Shock-absorbing landing equipment with extra-large tundra-style wheels

Functional and factory-installed LED landing, navigation and strobe lights

Lightweight yet durable composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction

Optional-use cutting edge slats for improved STOL and slow flight performance

Optional EDO-style floats (EFL5261, offered individually)





Overview
The E-flite® Timber® X 1.2m unleashes a brand-new era of STOL plus 3D aerobatic ability. Based upon the very popular Timber 1.5m model however including a brand-new wing design, extra-large control surfaces plus a THREE and 4S suitable power system, it provides an even wider flight envelope to deliver a really "mild to wild" experience. Hollow-core EPO construction with composite support results in a light-weight yet strong airframe that's capable of handling extreme aerobatic maneuvers while keeping the wing loading low for remarkable Brief Takeoff and Landing (STOL) and slow flight performance. It's also equipped with high-torque, metal-equipmented servos plus the shock-absorbing landing gear of the original model so you can fly as aggressively as you want from nearly any surface. You can even set up the included leading edge slats for improved slow flight performance, or the optional floats (EFL5261, offered individually) so you can fly from water. Add in the LED landing, navigation and strobe lights plus much of the other popular functions of the original, and the Timber X is a design nearly every pilot can value and enjoy!

eXtreme Maneuverability

eXtreme Maneuverability
The Timber® X 1.2m includes a brand-new wing design with a reduced span plus much larger ailerons and flaps, along with a bigger elevator and rudder. Double-beveled hinge lines make it possible to deflect every control surface, consisting of the flaps that can now travel in both instructions, to high angles for impressive control and severe 3D aerobatic ability. Pockets in the back of the fuselage and the included optional-use steel stabilizer joiner provide you additional options to fine-tune the model's performance for even wilder 3D setups–or on low rates the controls can be as smooth and docile as they are on the original so you can fly as mild or as wild as you'd like!
 

eXtra Power

eXtra Power
The factory-installed brushless power system includes a 50-amp ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a THREE LiPo battery, or eXtra power and limitless vertical performance with a FOUR battery without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
 





very Resilient

eXtremely Durable
Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO material provides a light-weight yet durable airframe. The Timber® X 1.2m is also equipped with high-torque, metal-equipmented servos plus the shock-absorbing landing gear and extra-large tundra-style wheels of the original model so you can fly aggressively from nearly any surface.
 

STOL (Brief Takeoff and Landing) Capable

STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) Capable
The brand-new wing design has a shorter span yet nearly as much wing location as the original, plus it includes drooped wingtips and can be equipped with the included optional-use leading edge slats for improved slow flight and STOL performance. These functions, along with the lightweight design, extra-large flaps and high-power brushless motor, make it possible to spring into the air or drift down to land in as low as 2 feet or less.
 





LED Lights

LED Lights
Like the original, the Timber® X 1.2m comes with realistic-looking LED landing, navigation and strobe lights that are factory-installed and powered from the flight battery.

SAFE technology

Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver set up so all you require to do is bind the receiver to a suitable transmitter, end up any last assembly, and fly!

This Bind-N-Fly Basic model is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX® receiver including AS3X (Artificial Stabilization–3-aXis) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the impacts of wind and turbulence. The result is a heightened sense of stability and precision that makes you seem like you're flying a much larger, skillfully tuned aircraft.

If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of security while acquainting yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope security technology developed into the receiver. No shows is needed. Just change up the binding series as directed in the manual.

With SAFE Select allowed, you get:

Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
These envelope restricts keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent extreme climb or dive angles.

Automatic Self-Leveling
The airplane immediately returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are launched and in the center position. It's also handy for keeping the wings level throughout takeoffs/launches and landings.

Easy Switch Task—No Complex Shows Required
The basic procedure for designating a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select functions on and off doesn't require any complicated shows and takes simply a few seconds.

If you don't wish to enable the SAFE Select functions, simply bind the receiver usually and it will work like a standard AS3X receiver.
