FMS Cessna 182 1500mm PNP RC Airplane Overview

The Cessna 182 is a popular small single-engine propeller aircraft that first appeared in 1956. It plays a crucial role in general aviation and is widely used in various fields such as private flying, flight training, business cruising, aerial photography, aerial patrols, geographic surveyance, and emergency medical rescue. Authorized by Textron Innovations Inc., the FMS 1500mm Cessna 182 adheres to the long-standing product philosophy of "Scale appearance, excellent performance," faithfully reproducing the appearance of the real aircraft and replicating its reliability, versatility, flexibility, and ease of operation. Whether you're a beginner pilot eager to progress or an enthusiast seeking recreational flying, the FMS Cessna 182 is undoubtedly a must-have choice.

The 360° transparent cockpit windows and dual-row seats match that of the full-scale aircraft. Coupled with an realistic pilot figure, instrument panels, and control yokes, the interior immerses you in a real cockpit experience. These unique scale details are a proud feature of FMS, allowing you to indulge in the joy of scale model flying.

The FMS 1500mm Cessna 182 includes more scale realism for model aircraft of its size and type, meticulously reproducing every detail of the real aircraft from the intake grille to the engine exhaust, multiple realistic antennas, landing gear fairings, and chrome plated propeller spinner. The concealed servo horn in the flap design also enhances the aircraft's aesthetics, aligning closely with the full-scale aircraft.

The 1500mm Cessna 182 has excellent short takeoff and landing capabilities, easily handling distances within three meters. Equipped with a robust propulsion system and effective flaps, it ensures quick takeoffs and landings even on smaller fields or confined areas.

The 1500mm Cessna 182 features CNC metal shock-absorbing landing gear set and wear-resistant tires, effectively resisting rough landings. Enhanced with damping silicone oil, the landing gear provides even cushioning, facilitating smoother travel and enhanced performance on rough surfaces or uneven airstrips.

The aircraft's wing design ensures stability and maneuverability during low-speed flight. It excels at low-altitude flying, slow cruising, and observation or photography tasks. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced pilot, you can effortlessly enjoy the thrill of low-speed flight.

Assembly can be completed in just 10 minutes which includes securing the fuselage and landing gear with screws. The main wing features a plug-in integrated installation structure, the wing strut includes a groove-type installation structure, and the horizontal and vertical tails use a combination snap-in installation structure. The two-piece fuselage reduces packaging size by 30% which simplifies transportation and storage.

Please Note:

  • Recommend using 4S battery
  • ESC has overheat protection. For continuous flights, wait three minutes after changing each battery before taking off again
  • Floats and Reflex V3 are not included and need to be purchased separately
  • Using Reflex requires 7 channel transmitter and receiver
