Overview
The E-flite Wheels set (part number EFL14835) is an essential spare parts component for RC aircraft enthusiasts operating the E-flite Commander mPd 1.4m brushless electric model aircraft. This genuine E-flite replacement wheel set comprises two 54mm wheels and one 25mm wheel, providing everything you need for routine maintenance and repairs on compatible landing gear assemblies. Whether you're a dedicated RC plane pilot in the UK or someone new to electric RC flight, having quality replacement wheels on hand ensures your model aircraft remains in peak condition for smooth ground operations and takeoff performance.
As a dedicated spare part engineered by E-flite, this wheel set has been specifically designed to deliver consistent rolling performance and tidy fitment on the Commander mPd 1.4m aircraft. Rather than sourcing generic aviation wheels, purchasing genuine E-flite wheels guarantees compatibility and maintains the aeronautical standards of your aircraft. This is particularly important for anyone operating an RC plane UK-wide, where reliability and proper fitment are essential for safe and successful flights.
The wheel set addresses a common need for RC aircraft operators: wheels experience wear through repeated landings, taxiing, and ground operations. By maintaining a set of spare wheels, you can quickly swap out worn components without lengthy downtime, keeping your E-flite Commander mPd 1.4m ready for flight whenever conditions permit.
Key Features
- Genuine E-flite spare part — This is an original E-flite component manufactured to the same specifications and quality standards as the wheels supplied with the aircraft itself, ensuring perfect compatibility and consistent performance with your Commander mPd 1.4m landing gear.
- Two 54mm wheels included — The larger pair of wheels provides the main rolling support for your aircraft during ground operations, taxiing, and landing, bearing the primary load and maintaining stability on the runway or field.
- One 25mm wheel included — The smaller wheel completes the landing gear configuration, typically serving as the nose wheel or tail wheel depending on the aircraft configuration, and maintains proper pitch and balance during ground handling.
- Straightforward replacement option — These wheels are designed for simple swap-out maintenance, allowing you to quickly replace worn or damaged wheels without requiring tools, special knowledge, or modifications to your landing gear assembly.
- Consistent rolling performance — The wheels are engineered to roll smoothly across various ground surfaces, reducing friction and drag during takeoff runs and landings, which helps preserve your aircraft's overall performance and extends the operational life of your landing gear.
- Tidy fitment on landing gear — Each wheel is precision-manufactured to seat properly within the landing gear assembly, ensuring secure mounting without rattling, wobbling, or fitment issues that could affect handling or create drag during flight.
- Standard fitment part — Classified as a standard part for the Commander mPd 1.4m, meaning these wheels are the correct specification for normal use and will integrate seamlessly with your existing aircraft setup without any compatibility concerns.
Technical Performance
The E-flite Wheels set maintains the engineering standards expected from E-flite's aircraft components. The two 54mm wheels and single 25mm wheel are manufactured to precise tolerances, ensuring balanced rotation and smooth ground operations across different runway conditions. The wheel design has been engineered specifically for the Commander mPd 1.4m aircraft platform, which is a brushless electric-powered model aircraft. These wheels work in conjunction with the aircraft's landing gear assembly to support the airframe during ground operations, including taxiing, takeoff runs, and landing rollouts. The materials and construction method ensure durability through repeated use whilst maintaining low weight characteristics that are critical for RC aircraft performance. The wheels will accommodate various ground surfaces, from grass fields to concrete runways, making them versatile for different operating environments. Their straightforward design means there are no integrated bearings or moving parts to maintain; they simply mount onto the existing landing gear structure of your Commander mPd 1.4m. The build quality reflects E-flite's commitment to reliable, maintenance-friendly components that support long-term aircraft operation without requiring frequent replacement under normal use conditions.

As a standard fitment part, they are the correct specification and will integrate seamlessly with your aircraft's landing gear assembly without any compatibility issues.
- Why do I need replacement RC plane wheels? — Aircraft wheels experience wear through repeated landings, taxiing across various ground surfaces, and runway operations. Worn wheels can cause increased drag, affect takeoff performance, and create noise. Maintaining spare wheels ensures your Commander mPd 1.4m remains ready for flight and operates at optimal performance levels.
- How often should I replace my RC aircraft wheels? — Wheel replacement frequency depends on your operating environment and flight schedule. If you fly regularly on rough ground or concrete runways, you may need replacement wheels more frequently. Keeping a spare set on hand, like this genuine E-flite set, means you can quickly perform maintenance without delaying your flying sessions.
- Are these wheels difficult to install? — No, the E-flite Wheels set has been designed as a straightforward replacement option. The wheels mount directly onto your existing landing gear assembly without requiring special tools, adhesives, or modifications. Simply swap out worn wheels for fresh ones.
- What is the difference between the two wheel sizes in this set? — The two larger 54mm wheels provide the main rolling support for your aircraft during ground operations and typically form the main landing gear, whilst the single 25mm wheel completes the configuration and typically functions as the nose wheel or tail wheel depending on your aircraft's landing gear design.
- Is this suitable for beginners flying RC planes? — Absolutely. These replacement wheels are perfect for RC plane enthusiasts at any skill level. Having spare wheels on hand is a sensible approach to aircraft maintenance that prevents frustration from weather-damaged or worn landing gear interrupting your flying schedule. New pilots especially benefit from maintaining spare components.
- Can I use generic aircraft wheels instead of E-flite branded wheels? — Whilst generic wheels might physically fit, genuine E-flite wheels are engineered specifically for the Commander mPd 1.4m and guarantee proper fitment, consistent performance, and reliability.
