VERSATILE AND CAPABLE
The DHC-6 Twin Otter was developed by de Havilland Canada in 1965. Developed as a rugged STOL (Brief Liftoff and Landing) commuter aircraft, the Twin Otter carried travelers and cargo into severe environments such as the sub-zero Antarctic and scorching North African desert. The line was shut down in 1988, after producing 844 aircraft. Viking Air Limited purchased the Type Certificates for all out-of-production de Havilland aircraft in 2005 and announced the Viking Series 400 Twin Otter Production Program two years later on. By mid-2015 Viking provided 75 new aircraft and re-established the Twin Otter as a successful commuter airliner — while nearly 500 of the original aircraft also stayed in operation. The E-flite® Twin Otter 1.2m is a scale replica that makes the perfect first twin-powered model for intermediate to knowledgeable RC pilots. It's flexible, easy to fly, and is equipped with functional features that include LED navigation and landing lights, flaps, and optional-use floats.

THE IDEAL FIRST TWIN
For RC pilots who want an excellent first (or next) twin model, there's no better option than the E-flite® Twin Otter 1.2m. It provides exciting "bush airplane" scale looks and performance together with the intrinsic stability of a high-wing design. The convenient size of the Twin Otter means you can transfer it totally put together for flying at a wide array of places with paved, yard or packed dirt surfaces, such as large parks, sports fields and RC flying fields. Your adventures won't stop there, however — get rid of the tricycle landing gear, set up the supplied drifts, and now you're prepared to fly off of large ponds and small lakes. Having two landing gear choices included in package only hints at this model's incredible worth. Along with molded-in panel lines, corrugated control surfaces and a scale-inspired trim plan, the E-flite Twin Otter comes with many functional features including functional flaps, LED navigation and landing lights, and props finished with black and white stripes that look incredible whether spinning or stalling. The Twin Otter 1.2m provides a truly special flying experience that a large range of pilots can enjoy.

Twin Power
The factory-installed power systems feature high-power brushless outrunner motors geared up with three-blade counter-rotating props. The ESCs are wired so they can be powered with a single 3S 2200-3200mAh battery to provide better-than-scale power and long flight times of up to 10+ minutes.
 



Versatile Equipment Options
Equipped with tricycle landing gear that consists of a steerable nose wheel, the Twin Otter provides exceptional ground handling and can be flown from paved, yard or dirt surfaces. You can also fly from water using the included float set — it matches the trim plan and includes a water rudder for excellent steering control. Both gear choices are easy to set up and can be swapped out in minutes.
 







Functional Features
The realistic-looking LED landing and navigation lights are factory-installed and powered from the flight battery. Operational flaps use improved slow-flight capability and performance while also making it possible to remove and land in much shorter distances and at slower speeds.
 



Durable Design
Construction with molded EPO product makes it possible to replicate intricate information and shapes in a light-weight yet resilient type. The result is an outstanding scale look that's easy to preserve and provides the very best flight experience possible.
 





 



Plug-N-Play® Completion Level
This Plug-N-Play (PNP) model comes out of package with a factory-installed power system and servos that are prepared to connect to the compatible receiver of your option (offered individually). Merely set up the receiver, finish any last assembly, and fly!
