Overview
Many RC pilots got their first taste of flying a Short Take Off and Landing (STOL) capable airplane with the original E-flite® Timber® 1.5m model. Its friendly handling, nimble sport performance, and takeoff-and-land-almost-anywhere abilities made it one of the most popular RC aircraft of all time — widely acclaimed and highly recommended as a great “next step” after a trainer, as the perfect first STOL-capable aircraft, and as one of the best all-around, fun-to-fly models for a wide range of pilots. This Special Edition celebrates the 10th anniversary of the release of that iconic model with the same short-nosed look and trim scheme – but all the modern conveniences, features, technologies, and capabilities expected in Timber models today. From a top-mounted hatch for easier and faster battery changes, stronger main landing gear mounts and heavy-duty springs, combined connectors for simpler wing installation and removal, to many more features that make it more durable, convenient, and capable than ever before!
The E-flite Timber 1.5m 10th Anniversary Special Edition celebrates the release of one of the most popular and best-selling RC aircraft of all time! All the popular features from the original Timber 1.5m are there: shock-absorbing landing gear with oversized, tundra-style wheels; an optional-use float set and leading edge slats; functional slotted flaps; and an LED lighting system with landing, navigation, and strobe lights. So are the enhancements that gave the Turbo Timber 1.5m more performance and capabilities, including a more powerful 3S and 4S 2200–5000mAh compatible power system, and a stiffer wing. Now this Special Edition adds a top-mounted hatch for faster, easier battery changes, plus combined connectors for simpler wing installation and removal. Strengthened landing gear mounts, along with heavier-duty springs, improve the model's durability and STOL capability when flying from rough terrain. Plus, it also features the iconic short-nose and trim scheme design for a now “classic” look!
Both versions feature more reliable and durable metal-geared servos, a 3S and 4S compatible motor, and a higher-capacity 70-amp Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC. The BNF Basic version includes a factory-installed AR631+ receiver featuring exclusive and enhanced AS3X+ along with optional-use SAFE Select technologies. The receiver also delivers real-time telemetry, including overall battery voltage, current, and more to compatible transmitters – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – plus motor/thrust reversing for special ground handling and other capabilities. Hollow-core EPO construction with composite reinforcement results in a lightweight yet strong airframe that makes it capable of handling a wide variety of aerobatic maneuvers while keeping the wing loading low for impressive Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) and slow flight performance. You can even install the optional-use leading edge slats for improved slow-flight performance, or the included floats so you can fly from water too. And it all adds up to why the Timber 1.5m remains the best “next step”, everyday sport, and STOL-capable model for a wide range of pilots — only now it's better than ever in this Anniversary Special Edition!
