E-flite EC-1500 Twin 1.5m (Updated and Upgraded for 2023!)

This updated and upgraded E-flite® EC-1500 Twin 1.5m features a ground-up design optimized for capability, versatility, and FUN to deliver a flying experience you simply can’t get with any other airplane! It’s effectively many airplanes in one, with a wide flight envelope that includes slow and scale-like to sport flying and even aggressive 3D aerobatic capability. The twin power systems feature brushless outrunner motors with custom five-blade counter-rotating propellers – including updated design bolt-to-the-motor prop adapters for easier and much more secure prop installation. This setup delivers excellent performance with a 3S 3200–6400mAh LiPo battery, or you can install a 4S battery for the power to hover and unlimited vertical capability — without modifications or upgrades! Plus, the motors are matched to an exclusive 40-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Dual Smart ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data with Smart and non-Smart batteries via compatible receivers (including the AR8360T installed in the BNF® Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters. The BNF® Basic version is equipped with an AR8360T receiver to provide full-range, real-time telemetry data, including battery voltage, ESC temp, and more — plus differential thrust and motor reversing for special ground handling and other capabilities — along with the benefits of AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. This 8-channel receiver, plus selectable-size ailerons and functional flaps that can travel both ways, also makes multiple wing configuration options possible – including “crow” and/or full-span aileron/flaperon/spoileron setups.

There are eight factory-installed servos, including metal-geared servos on all of the control surfaces plus the functional cargo door so you can carry and drop creative payloads from the large cargo bay. Realistic-looking LED landing, navigation, and simulated strobe lights are powered from the flight battery so you can fly from dawn until dusk — from paved, grass, or dirt surfaces; off snow using the included skis; or from large ponds and lakes using optional floats (sold separately). Remove the magnetically secured nose cone to install a GoPro® or similar camera for recording aerial HD footage or mount a separate FPV camera on the large top hatch (cameras/gear sold separately). Plus, you can use the included decals to customize the now fully-painted gray finish with Ohio Air National Guard, Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy, and other markings to personalize your model! And the result is the most capable, versatile, and fun to fly twin yet for a wide range of intermediate to experienced pilots interested in scale-like, sport, and even aggressive 3D aerobatic flying.

Excellent. Now I will feel confident to fly my old one with a couple of these in my hanger.

Thank you Eflite and thank you Chris Wolfe for planting the seed on this trim scheme, much more attractive in USAF livery.

Loving the differential and reversible thrust! One of my favourites for sure. Keep it up E-flite!

[AussieRCPlayground]

Well, Santa better have an extra large bag this year cause my wishlist just keeps getting bigger. 😁
Nice to see this one back and looking better than ever. Love the scheme on this one better than the last and very impressed with the new features. An update like this is always welcome. Well done guys. 😎👍

[GBLynden]

Great move making the props bolt-on! 👊🏻💥👊🏻

[thelongestday]

Awesome! A real winner! I am happy it is not 6S but 3/4S!

[airhammer]

Bolt on prop adapters!!!! Good work Eflite!! The umxs get them, I hope they all do.
The new scheme is great, the RC Greek beat you to it :)!! Happy that the EC-1500 retains all of its capabilities. AirHammer out!!

[RACEABLE]

Wow!!!this plane is really something new and snazzy !

[A.M.-RC]

Awesome! Now waiting for a 2-3s UMX of this 😁

[SaltyDuck]

Took yall long enough, DONT DISCONTINUE THIS ONE

[leozengy]

That's one of my favorites! can you make another 1.2m P-51 in RAF scheme?

[jakesvideos]

0:32 what are the radio settings to pull off this stationary rotation? One motor must be full forward, the other full reverse thrust. I have yet to see any of the reviewers do this, just curious if the stock configuration allows that much differential/reversing?

[Chacha-zs]

Bonjour savez vous quelle est la vitesse maximale de l' avion merci

[Jake-pwrp]

Are any park flyer size edges/extras comming out anytime soon

[danflom]

Please start using the 332 servos in everything bigger than a UMX.

[Helicopterpilot]

I don't understand the allure to a cargo aerobatic plane...

[razorbackbird]

That is a V8 big block engine installed, right? Boahhhh. Cool video, great music!

[julianorozco]

Excelente escala y el piloto tiene mucha imaginaciin haciendo esas maniobras aterradoras, saludos y gracias sueño con tenerlo❤❤

Hi, I wanted to ask if it was possible to get some support, I already bought the 1/10 2012 Nissan GTR GT3 V100-C RTR but I lost the charger that I have to connect to the wall, I just wanted to know if it was possible to get some information about where to find it
