Skill Level 2 – Some Experience Required

Skill Level 2 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for RC pilots who already have some experience and the skills to assemble, set up, and fly similar class models. You should have the experience and skills necessary to successfully fly models like the E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.1m, Valiant 1.3m, Commander mPd 1.4m, Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m, or other similar class models before attempting to fly the Beechcraft D18/RC-45J 1.5m BNF Basic version.

Bind-N-Fly® Completion Level Advantage

Already own a SpektrumT 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!

Exclusive Technologies

The BNF Basic version Beechcraft D18/RC-45J 1.5m is equipped with a factory-installed Spektrum AR631+ receiver that features exclusive Spektrum AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. Enhanced AS3X+ works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence, delivering a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits, along with automatic self-leveling, which can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch. If you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, simply bind the receiver normally, and only AS3X+ will be active. The receiver is also loaded with a Smart Transmitter File (STF) that allows you to import all the settings for NX and iX series transmitters during the binding process so you can be flying in less time than ever before!

Smart Transmitter File

This BNF aircraft is equipped with a receiver that is loaded with a Smart Transmitter File (STF) that makes programming your transmitter as easy as a few clicks of a button. When you bind your transmitter to an STF-equipped aircraft, all programming parameters download automatically from the receiver. Switch assignments, rates, expo, telemetry, and voice callouts configure themselves. No lengthy step-by-step instructions. No continual adjustments. Just push-button convenience that gets you flying faster.

Smart Technology

The D18/RC-45J 1.5m is equipped with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Dual Smart Lite ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system related telemetry data including overall battery voltage and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – via compatible receivers (including the AR631+ installed in the BNF Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, iX12 to 20 and others) while you fly. Additionally, factory-programmed differential thrust provides improved ground handling for easier taxiing, takeoffs, and landings, as well as the ability to perform specialized aerobatic maneuvers.

Versatile Twin Power

The factory-installed twin brushless power system features a Spektrum Avian Dual 40-amp Smart Lite ESC plus specially-tuned motors with counter-rotating props that deliver an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or more speed and unlimited vertical performance with a 4S battery – without the need for any modifications or upgrades. The large battery compartment accommodates batteries ranging from 3200 to 5000mAh, including two 2200mAh batteries connected in parallel, to deliver a wide range of performance and flight times.

Abundant Scale Detail

The factory-assembled airframe is equipped with an abundance of scale detail, including moulded-in panel lines and hatches, antennas, exhaust stacks, a pilot figure, and more. Additionally, it's factory-finished in a fully painted white with orange and black Navy RC-45J (SNB-5P) navigation and photo reconnaissance trainer trim scheme.

Functional Scale Features

LED navigation lights, operational flaps, twin rudders, and a steerable tailwheel are functional features that elevate your experience to another level.

Durable Precision

The lightweight yet durable, composite reinforced and fully moulded EPO airframe results in an outstanding scale appearance that's easy to maintain and delivers the best possible flight experience. Plus, the factory-installed digital, metal-geared servos deliver crisp and precise control at every speed.

Capable Gear

The factory-installed electric retracts are equipped with durable metal components, that make it possible to take off from and land on a variety of surfaces, including paved runways and grass.

Extra Convenience

The unique 3-piece wing design makes storage and transport as convenient as possible, as the center section houses the main gear, and all sections feature innovative hands-free connections. And the convenient top-mounted hatch makes it quick and easy to install and remove batteries.

Easy Assembly

No glue is required for final assembly, and you can have the Beechcraft D18 1.5m ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery!
