The models detailed within these pages are generally designed to be flown within a controlled environment Model Aircraft Club. At the very least it's worth contacting you're local flying club when you're new to the hobby, just to get some help and hands on advice with flying you model. A full list of national flying sites and aircraft clubs can be found at www.bmfa.org.

Electric Flight aircraft tend to have a much more conventional shape, many being scale models of the real thing, and just like their full sized counterparts these employ typically throttle, rudder and elevator controls, with some more advanced versions incorporating ailerons to give banking and aerobatic capabilities. Whilst some models are designed around traditional electric motors, many are now utilizing new brushless motor technology, allowing for greater flight times and considerably higher performance. With a suitable 12 volt charger these models can be recharged at the flying site from a car battery, allowing for a full days flying. Flying RC aircraft as a hobby has been growing worldwide with the advent of more efficient power; electric, miniature internal combustion or even jet engines plus lighter and more powerful batteries and less expensive radio systems. A wide variety of models and styles are available. We also supply radio controlled aircraft simulators, so you can hone skills before attempting a first flight or to practice aerobatics without risk of damaging the aircraft.

E-Flite DHC-2 Beaver 25ARTF EP 68" Aircraft Model (EFL4525)

This superb scale model from E-flight raises the standard in almost ready to fly electric models with a host of scale detail that is unsurpassed. The Beaver features distinctive corrugated flight control surfaces, concealed control linkages to the rudder, elevator and steerable tail wheel hidden behind an easy access fibreglass tail cone. The fully functioning flaps aid in short take offs and landings and also feature concealed linkages. Other scale features include a pre-painted fibreglass engine cowling with dummy radial engine, pre-painted fibreglass landing gear fairings, and pre-moulded canopy windows with the correct blown effect to the side windows. The large cabin can be fitted out with the optional scale cockpit kit (EFL4537) containing instrument panel, cloth effect floor and seats, two painted pilot figures.

Wingspan: 1735mm (68”) Requires 4 channel 35Mhz Radio, and Power Set

As to the airframe itself, this is constructed from laser cut lightweight plywood and balsa parts covered in Ultracote in a scale colour scheme complete with DeHavilland graphics. The large one-piece wing is easily removed for convenient transport. One feature that is included but not seen are the pre-fitted float mounts that allow the landing gear and optional floats (EFLA500) to be changed quickly and easily allowing the Beaver to be flown off water for the ultimate in scale flight. Thanks to the unique adjustable engine mounting on the firewall the Beaver may be powered with either the E-flite Power25 or the Power 32 Brushless outrunner motors either of which provides plenty of performance, although it might be prudent to fit the Power 32 if the model is to be flown only off water. E-flite’s comprehensive hardware pack and illustrated assembly guide complete the fantastic model.
