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 Twin Otter 1.4m BNF Basic version.

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!

Smart Technology

The Twin Otter 1.4m 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 motor RPM, battery voltage and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – via compatible receivers (including the AR631+) 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. Plus, the receiver is loaded with a Smart Transmitter Model File that allows you to import all settings for NX and iX series transmitters during the binding process.

Uniquely Capable

Differential thrust and optional-use motor/thrust reversing (standard on the BNF Basic version; Smart-compatible receiver required for the PNP version) offer improved ground handling for easier taxiing, takeoffs and landings, along with the ability to perform special aerobatic maneuvers. Both features are also extremely helpful when flying from water using the optional floats that are sold separately or in a money-saving combo (the same floats also used for popular Timber 1.2m and 1.5m models).

3S and 4S Compatible

The factory-installed twin brushless power system features a 25-amp Spektrum Avian Dual Smart Lite ESC plus specially-tuned motors that deliver an abundance of thrust with a single 3S 2200–3200mAh LiPo battery. Or you can install a 4S battery for even more power and unlimited vertical capability without needing any modifications or upgrades!

Scale Features

The Twin Otter 1.4m features an abundance of scale detail including moulded-in panel lines, corrugated control surfaces, windshield wipers, handles, antennas, and more. It also features operational flaps to deliver improved slow flight handling and shorter takeoffs and landings. Plus, factory-installed LED lighting, including navigation and landing lights, add to the scale realism and authenticity.

Exclusive Technologies

The BNF Basic version Twin Otter 1.4m is equipped with exclusive Spektrum AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. Enhanced AS3X+ technology works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence and deliver an even more locked-in feel than standard AS3X, which makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits and automatic self-leveling that 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.

Easy Assembly

No glue or specials tools are required for final assembly so you can have the Twin Otter 1.4m ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery! And although it's conveniently sized to fit fully assembled in almost any vehicle, you can remove the two-piece wing with hands-free connections for easier storage and transport.

More Durable

The lightweight yet durable EPO airframe is composite reinforced for added strength. It features a stronger and easier to repair/service nose wheel along with a more durable digital and metal-geared servo for steering/rudder control.

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.
