Description: The E-flite Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m is the most convenient capable and durable version of the popular STOL model yet. And now with heavier-duty landing gear springs and a 70-amp Smart Lite ESC new for 2024 it’s better than ever before Horizon Hobby E-flite Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m Smart PNP, w/Floats, EFL105275B EVOLUTION OF A LEGEND 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. Its next evolution, the Turbo Timber® 1.5m, proved even more popular than the original with the addition of metal-geared servos, a 3S and 4S compatible power system, plus a turboprop-styled nose and 3-blade propeller. Now comes the Turbo Timber® Evolution 1.5m, ready to continue the Timber legend with new upgrades that deliver more durability, convenience, and capabilities than ever before — plus a fresh and modern look! SMARTER, STRONGER, AND MORE CAPABLE THAN EVER BEFORE The E-flite® Turbo Timber® Evolution 1.5m has evolved to become the Smartest, most convenient, capable, and durable mid-sized Timber yet! Popular features from the original Timber are all there: the shock-absorbing landing gear with oversized, tundra-style wheels; 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® more performance and capabilities, including a turboprop-styled nose, 3-blade prop and spinner, a more powerful 3S and 4S compatible power system, and a stiffer wing with durable, reliable metal-geared servos. Now the Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m adds a top hatch for faster, easier battery changes, plus combined connectors for simpler wing installation and removal. Strengthened landing gear mounts along with heavier duty springs from the Twin Timber 1.6m improve the model’s durability and STOL capability when flying from rough terrain. The proven Turbo Timber power system is upgraded with an exclusive Spektrum™ Avian™ 70-amp Smart Lite ESC, and the BNF® Basic version is equipped with an AR637TA receiver to provide full-range, real-time telemetry data including overall battery voltage, current, motor RPM and more — plus motor/thrust reversing for special ground handling and other capabilities — along with the benefits of AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. There’s even a fresh, modern trim scheme for the durable, composite-reinforced airframe. The Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m remains the best “next step”, everyday sport, and STOL-capable model for a wide range of pilots — only it’s now better than ever! Features Evolved with updates and upgrades including Smart electronics to offer new capabilities and telemetry features, added convenience, more durability, plus a fresh and modern look The best “next step”, everyday sport and STOL capable model for a wide range of pilots Incredible Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) plus sport and aerobatic flight capabilities 70-amp Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC (new for 2024) provides real-time battery voltage, current, motor RPM and other data, plus motor/thrust reversing capabilities, via compatible receivers and transmitters High-power 3S and 4S compatible outrunner motor with 3-blade prop for proven performance More convenient top hatch with larger battery compartment to fit 3S 2200mAh to 4S 5000mAh batteries Combined connectors make installing/removing the wing easier for more convenient storage and transport Stronger, reinforced mounts plus shock-absorbing landing gear with heavier duty springs (new for 2024) and oversized wheels/tires Optional-use leading edge slats for improved STOL and slow flight performance Functional and factory-installed LED landing, navigation and strobe lights Includes optional-use floats with steerable rudders for flying from water Stiffened wing for improved aileron authority, roll rates and handling Lightweight yet durable composite-reinforced EPO construction Six durable, factory-installed metal-geared servos and linkages Functional slotted flaps for shorter takeoffs and landings Bolt-on, two-piece wing with carbon fiber wing joiner Fast and easy assembly – no glue required Fly this model in the RealFlight Evolution RC flight simulator Skill Level 3 – Experience Required Skill Level 3 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for more experienced RC pilots who already have the skills to assemble, set up and fly similar class models. This PNP version requires more experience and skills to assemble and fly than the BNF Basic version because you will need to install a receiver that does not already include properly tuned AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. It’s not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft for new pilots or “next step after a trainer” model for low-time to intermediate RC pilots. You should have the experience and skills necessary to assemble and successfully fly models like the E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.1m, Decathlon RJG 1.2m, Valiant 1.3m, or other similar class models before attempting to fly the Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m. Smart Technology Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe. The Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m also features a stiffened wing that improves aileron authority and roll rates, plus it’s equipped with durable and reliable metal-geared servos all around. Versatile Gear Options Thick grass, gravel paths, dirt trails — even local lakes and ponds — you can fly off of these and many other surfaces that are impossible for most models of this size to handle. The stronger, reinforced mounts in the fuselage, plus shock-absorbing landing gear equipped with the heavier-duty springs from the Twin Timber 1.6m (new for 2024), soak up the bumps of rough surfaces and not-so-great landings. And the oversized, tundra-style wheels and tires provide excellent prop clearance. The included float set features dual water rudders for superb steering control. Whichever gear option you choose to fly with, both are easy to install and can be swapped out in minutes. STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) Capable The Turbo Timber Evolution’s wing is designed with features like drooped wingtips and functional slotted flaps, and to accept the optional-use leading edge slats (included) for improved slow flight and STOL performance. These features, along with the lightweight design and high-power brushless motor, make it possible to spring into the air or float down to land in as little as a few feet or less. Versatile Power The factory-installed brushless power system features a Spektrum Avian 70-amp Smart Lite ESC (new for 2024) along with a specially-tuned motor and 3-blade prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or more power and unlimited vertical performance with a 4S battery without the need for any modifications or upgrades. Plus, the more convenient top hatch and larger battery compartment makes it easier to fit batteries from 3S 2200mAh to 4S 5000mAh to achieve a wide variety of performance and flight times. Versatile Durability Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe. The Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m also features a stiffened wing that improves aileron authority and roll rates, plus it’s equipped with durable and reliable metal-geared servos all around. LED Lights Like the original, the Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m comes with realistic-looking LED landing, navigation and strobe lights that are factory-installed and powered from the flight battery. Easy Assembly No glue is required for assembly, and because the few parts that need to be assembled easily bolt into place, the Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m can be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge the flight battery. The two-piece wing, now featuring combined servo and LED connectors, also makes transport and storage more convenient than ever before. Plug-N-Play Completion Level This Plug-N-Play (PNP) version comes out of the box with a factory-installed power system and servos that are ready to connect to the compatible receiver of your choice (sold separately), plus the transmitter and battery you provide (also sold separately). Simply install the receiver, finish any final assembly, and fly! Item Condition All items sold by Horizon Hobby are sold as "New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item."
