E-Flight DHC2 Beaver 25e ARF
DHC-2 Beaver 25e ARF
Overview
The DHC-2 Beaver was designed by de Havilland of Canada for flight in
remote wilderness areas of the world. The Beaver was designed to be
exceptionally rugged and powerful. This single-engine monoplane could
easily be retrofitted with wheels, skis or floats. The short takeoff and landing
capabilities made it ideal to access areas that could normally only be reached
by boat or foot. The Beaver entered into service in 1948 and quickly established
itself by flying to the frozen, remote areas of Canada and Alaska. Despite the
fact that production ceased in 1967, many of the DHC-2 Beavers are still f
lying today to access remote areas for fishermen or island-hopping tourists
in the Caribbean.
The details of this PLATINUM SERIES scale model include corrugated flight
surfaces, concealed tail linkages and a scale dummy motor. The construction
of the lightweight, sturdy airframe is balsa and plywood. The scale enthusiast
will admire the scale color scheme, prepainted fiberglass cowl, and genuine
UltraCote® covering. In addition, the removable one-piece wing allows for easy transportation.
The DHC-2 Beaver is another exciting opportunity for pilots to experience
civilian scale electric flight. Just like the versatility of the full-size DHC-2 Beaver,
the E-flite model comes with float mounts built into the fuselage. For added fun,
the pilot can quickly change the landing gear to the optional float set (EFLA500)
for on-water takeoffs and landings. The large flap areas aid the characteristic
short landings performed by the DHC-2. The DHC-2 gives the modeler options;
it is outfitted with the new E-flite adjustable motor mount system which allows
either the Power 25 or Power 32 brushless outrunner motors to be bolted directly
onto the firewall. The combination of the PLATINUM SERIES detail and the additional
float kit place the DHC-2 Beaver in a class of its own.
