Quality ARF replica of the "SUV of Civil Aviation"
The appeal of scale civil airplane ARFs is strong, and the Cessna 182 is one of the most recognizable airplanes of the last half century. Top Flite's detailed ARF model is sure to impress at the R/C flying field with its scale looks and performance. The attention to authentic touches is obvious at every turn, from the built-in lighting system to the twin radio antenna on the wing. What's even more remarkable is the gentle handling that makes this ARF a great choice for virtually any pilot.
Features:
Factory-built wood sections and factory-applied Cessna-style trim scheme reduce assembly time to just 18 - 25 hours.
Painted fiberglass parts include not only traditional time savers like the cowl and wheel pants, but added extras like the one-piece wing, landing gear struts, Horner wing tips, and molded-in corrugations for control surfaces.
The factory-installed lighting system includes a red Mars beacon on top of the fin as well as landing and navigational lights.
The full cockpit interior includes seats and sides plus a redesigned, extraordinarily realistic 3D instrument panel. Details include raised dials and control yokes as well as color graphics.
The accessory package includes staples like the steerable nose wheel plus extras like the polished aluminum spinner.
Performance is great with either glow or brushless electric power.
Easy to see and flies well in most wind conditions.

  E-Flite Piper Pawnee 15e Enjoy the absolute thrill of electric flight. With a wing span of 60" this bird is great. Contributing to the Pawnee’s extraordinary performance is the low wing and semi-horner tip design that further improves the low speed handling so it maneuvers well even in somewhat confined areas. The flaps come pre-installed, but not yet cut out, so the modeler can elect to fly with or without them. The Pawnee has a lightweight, one-piece bolt-on wing that attaches to the fuselage with balsa struts. Its main undercarriage and landing gear are recreated with durable aluminum while scale Cub wheels facilitate smooth takeoffs and landings.
