RealFlight Evolution E-flite Commander mPd 1.4m

RealFlight Evolution E-flite Commander mPd 1.4m adds a sport airplane model based on the E-flite Commander mPd 1.4m to RealFlight Evolution. Designed by David Payne and Mirco Pecorari with influences from full-scale and model aviation, the airplane combines pilot-friendly handling with the ability to fly at higher speeds and perform high-energy aerobatics.

Flight characteristics

The Commander mPd 1.4m is designed as a step up from a trainer, with straightforward takeoffs, flight and landings. Its 3S- and 4S-compatible brushless power system, light wing loading, factory-installed metal-geared servos and flaps give it a wide flight envelope. It flies smoothly and predictably, with enough power for rolling circles, knife-edge flight and other maneuvers.

Stabilization and control

The model includes AS3X stabilization and optional-use SAFE Select technology. When SAFE Select is enabled, pitch and bank angle limits prevent the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down, or from climbing or diving at excessive angles. Releasing the sticks to the center position makes the airplane return to and hold level flight; this can also help keep its wings level during takeoffs and landings.

Model features

The Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC can provide real-time telemetry such as motor RPM, current and battery voltage when used with compatible receivers and Spektrum AirWare-equipped transmitters. It supports both Smart and non-Smart batteries. The two-piece wing uses a hands-free servo connection system that plugs in the aileron and flap servos when the wing is installed with four bolts.
