Introduction
The iconic PA-28 Cherokee began rolling off the assembly line in Vero Beach, Florida in the early 1960s. Since then, thanks to its simple design and smooth handling, more than 32,000 Cherokees and variants have been produced for flight training, personal use, and beyond. The original E-flite Cherokee 1.3m was a popular tribute to this aviation classic that offered incredible handling every RC pilot could appreciate while featuring a variety of functional scale features including navigation and landing lights, a full-flying stabilator, flaps, and more. Now this updated and upgraded version includes a Spektrum Avian 70A Smart Lite ESC as part of the optimized power system along with other improvements to make it Smarter and more fun to fly than ever before!

The shock-absorbing nose strut features an improved steering arm and mounting design for easier maintenance, while the oversized wheels make it possible to fly from a variety of paved, dirt, and even some grass surfaces. Plug-in wing panels are equipped with convenient hands-free servo connections and include operational slotted flaps for shorter takeoffs and landings plus improved slow-flight handling. An extremely large top hatch featuring a pilot figure - and now including a plastic instrument panel cover to eliminate gatoring - offers easy access to the electronics and the battery mounting area with plenty of space to fit a 3S or 4S 2200-4000mAh battery, while the high-power brushless motor and 70-amp Smart Lite ESC deliver better-than-scale power. The power system has also been optimized with a smaller diameter propeller that offers better ground clearance plus improved efficiency and performance. Best of all, no glue is required for assembly of the lightweight, composite-reinforced EPO airframe so you can be flying in less time than it takes to charge a battery! It all adds up to deliver a scale marvel that offers incredible handling and fantastic flight performance for shooting smooth touch and goes, rock-solid low and high-speed cruising, and even for performing aggressive aerobatics in a model that's perfect for intermediate to experienced pilots.

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 installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly!
This Bind-N-Fly Basic model is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX® receiver featuring AS3X (Artificial Stabilization-3-aXis) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence. The result is a heightened sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you're flying a much larger, expertly tuned aircraft.
If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection technology built into the receiver. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual.
With SAFE Select enabled, you get:
Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
- These envelope limits keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.
Automatic Self-Leveling
- The airplane instantly returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the centre position. It's also helpful for keeping the wings level during takeoffs/launches and landings.
Easy Switch Assignment-No Complex Programming Required
- The simple procedure for assigning a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any complex programming and takes just a few seconds.
If you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, just bind the receiver normally and it will function like a standard AS3X receiver.
- Wingspan: 1311 mm
- Battery type: 3S 11.1V or 4S 14.8V 2200-4000mAh LiPo Battery with EC3 or IC3 Connector (not included)
- Motor type: Spektrum Brushless Outrunner Motor (installed)
- Weight: 1405 g
- Length: 1040 mm

We want to ensure a smooth delivery experience for you, and here are some key details to keep in mind about our service.
- For orders exceeding £120, delivery is available exclusively to mainland UK addresses. However, orders below £120 can be delivered to outlying Isles and Northern Ireland, provided they meet specific criteria: they must be deliverable by Royal Mail, weigh less than 30kg, and fit within the dimensions of 61cm x 46cm x 46cm. Please be aware that certain highland areas may entail additional delivery fees, as couriers often charge more for these deliveries. If you reside in the highlands or any outlying regions, we recommend reaching out to us before placing your order to verify delivery options and any potential extra charges.
- Delivery is typically included in the price for the majority of our products, unless otherwise specified. However, please note that orders under £80 will incur an additional delivery charge. You can easily view this charge on the checkout page when finalising your purchase. We aim to maintain transparency in our pricing structure while providing you with the best possible service.
- Most orders will be delivered via either a next working day delivery service or within 2 working days, depending on your chosen service. Please note that for next working day delivery, the cut-off time is 12pm, and dispatch occurs exclusively on weekdays. However, certain items may have longer shipping times, and the expected delivery period will be clearly specified in the product listing.
- To streamline your order fulfillment process, please note that when your order includes items with varying shipping times, we follow this approach: If any item in your order has a longer shipping time, we will hold the entire order until all items are in stock. However, if certain items are expected to be restocked after a considerable delay, we offer you two options. You can choose to wait for complete fulfillment, where we'll dispatch the order once all items are back in stock. Alternatively, you have the option to receive a partial delivery, where we'll promptly send you the in-stock items and deliver the remaining items as they become available. Your satisfaction and convenience are paramount, and we strive to accommodate your preferences for multi-item orders.
- To ensure efficient delivery, we work with trusted carriers: DPD Local for next working day delivery and Royal Mail for the 2 working days option.
- After dispatching your goods, we'll promptly send you an email containing the parcel's tracking number. To ensure you stay updated conveniently, kindly provide a valid mobile number, which we will add to the consignment. This way, you can receive real-time updates on your mobile phone for added convenience.
- For listings specifying a shipping time of "Dispatched within 3 working days," please note that orders under this category will typically be delivered within a timeframe of 3 to 5 working days.
