Description

The E-flite® Carbon-Z® Cub aircraft is the first to offer patented Carbon-Z strength and rigidity in a giant scale package. Like the full-scale Cub Crafters Carbon Cub SS airplane, this ultra-lightweight model by World Aerobatic Champion Quique Somenzini is astonishingly versatile whether your intention is to cruise gracefully or surprise scale admirers with envelope busting aerobatics. Helping you at the sticks is the extraordinary AS3X® system built into the included Spektrum AR635 receiver, which makes it possible for you to experience agility far beyond the classic Cub form, while at the same time providing stability better than the original with control that's always natural feeling no matter how you like to fly.

Based on a platform known for its legendary versatility, the Carbon-Z Cub makes giant scale so simple now even more RC pilots can go big. Its enormous Tundra wheels tackle just about any terrain you choose to romp from, or you can easily mount the optional Carbon-Z Cub Float Set so no RC adventure boundaries stand in your way. A mechanism is included for towing sailplanes with wingspans as large as 3-meters and there's even an optional camera mount so you can take one-of-a-kind images from a birds eye view. Even if you get carried away, the Carbon-Z structure is easy to repair.

A major part of what makes this giant scale icon so versatile is the control innovation package included as standard equipment such as the digital, metal-gear servos, and slop-free ball-link hardware. Because the included flaps are functional, greater control at low airspeeds is possible in addition to the ability to significantly shorten takeoff and landing distances.

Although this aircraft may look tame, its brushless power system has been specially developed to offer incredible muscle for unbelievable STOL performance as well as the versatility to excel as a multi-purpose aircraft. Practically all that's left to do is to bind to your favorite DSM2®/DSMX® compatible 6-channel computer transmitter for airplanes, a 3200mAh 22.2V 30C Li-Po flight battery and balance Li-Po charger.

$669.99
Available to order

Overview

No name in aviation is as well known as Cessna. This fantastic-flying, giant-scale recreation of the Cessna 150 includes features like scale LED lighting, a shock-absorbing nose strut, fully functional flaps, wheel pants, and more.

Features

A large sport-scale model that can do it all

Wide flight envelope – mild to wild

Scale details include LED lights, flaps, wheel pants and more

No tools required for field assembly

Innovative hands-free servo connection system

Two-piece wing assembly for easy transport

AS3X® receiver with optional SAFE Select technology

Powerful brushless motor with 60A ESC

Large, easy-access battery hatch for 4S-6S 4000-7000mAh LiPo packs

Innovative Hands-Free Servo Connection System

Vibrant Aerobat trim scheme

Rough-field landing gear with shock-absorbing nose strut

Optional floats

Enjoying a giant-scale flying experience is easier than you might think with the Carbon-Z® Cessna 150. This Bind-N-Fly® Basic version includes a brushless power system and comes with the servos and a Spektrum™ AS3X® receiver with optional SAFE® Select technology installed.


Incredible Scale Detail and LED Lights

This stunning reproduction of one of Cessna’s most popular aircraft measures 84-inches from wingtip to wingtip and comes loaded with scale details. These include things like pre-installed LED lighting, a shock-absorbing nose strut, fully functional flaps and wheel pants. Other scale touches include molded panel lines and control surfaces that are corrugated like those on the full-scale version.


Wide Flight Envelope

The inherent stability of the high-wing Cessna design and smooth response of the AS3X receiver will immediately put newer pilots at ease. Experienced pilots will love the wide flight envelope and abundance of power. Slow and scale flight, lazy 8s, knife-edge maneuvers, rolling circles – it can do it all.


Brushless Power System and Functional Flaps

The powerful brushless motor is paired with a 60A ESC that can handle a variety of 4-6S 4000-7000mAh batteries so you can make the flying experience as mild or wild as you want. All this available power, along with the functional flaps, gives the airplane impressive short-field takeoff and landing performance, too.


Fast Field Assembly and Hands-Free Servo Connectors

After initial assembly, you won’t need any tools to attach or remove the wings at the field. You don’t even have to touch the servo leads. The innovative Hands-Free Servo Connection System automatically plugs in the wing servos and LED light connectors whenever you attach the wing.




AS3X Receiver with Optional SAFE Select Technology

The model’s AS3X (Artificial Stabilization – 3-aXis) receiver works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence. The result is a sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you’re flying an expertly tuned aircraft.


This receiver also features optional SAFE® Select technology that you can turn on and off with the flip of a transmitter switch. With SAFE Select technology activated, you get:


Pitch and Bank Angle Limits

These keep the aircraft from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles during takeoff and landing.


Automatic Self-Leveling

Instantly returns the wings to level when the sticks are released.


Optional Float Set and Accessories Available Separately

You have the option of installing floats with a working water rudder so you can fly off water. Installation is easy and can be done in just a few minutes.


What you Need

Full-range, 6+ Channel DSMX®/DSM2® transmitter

4-6S 4000-7000mAh LiPo battery

In addition, finely-tuned AS3X® technology adds the kind of stability that makes dusting the ground low-and-slow pure joy.

Once you have mastered the flying basics, this RC plane can perform a range of aerobatic maneuvers such as loops, rolls and even inverted flight. With the optional Apprentice S floats (sold separately under the product code EFLA550), you can turn this model into a great floatplane.
