E-flite DHC-6 Twin Otter 1.4m RC Airplane Introduction

The DHC-6 Twin Otter was developed by de Havilland Canada in 1965. Designed as a rugged STOL (Short Take-Off and Landing) commuter aircraft, the Twin Otter carried passengers and cargo into harsh environments such as the sub-zero Antarctic and scorching North African desert. For 60 years, the Twin Otter has stood alone as the most reliable and versatile aircraft in its class! The E-flite Twin Otter 1.4m is a scale replica that makes the perfect first twin-powered model for intermediate to experienced RC pilots. It's versatile, easy to fly, and is equipped with functional features including LED navigation and landing lights, flaps, and mounting hardware for optional floats. The BNF Basic version is also equipped with enhanced AS3X+ technology that smooths out the effects of wind and turbulence better than ever before. Plus, it features optional-use SAFE Select technology that makes it even easier to fly - along with differential thrust and motor reversing for special ground handling and other capabilities! Both versions include Spektrum servos, a Dual Smart Lite ESC, plus 3S and 4S compatible motors.
