Fitted with Optional Floats
The DHC-2 Beaver is one of those aircraft that has
survived the years and is still giving service throughout the world
today.
The combination of a rugged airframe and the ability
to work from limited size landing strips has made her the workhorse
of the north in countries like Canada.
The ST Model version has lost none of that character
and brings a much loved aircraft to the world of modelling in real
style. The whole model has been carefully designed in CAD using
the true outlines of the original and then translated into a highly
detailed EPO foam model with a complex internal structure, to give
the right combination of strength and weight. Carbon fibre has
been added where necessary (3 spars for instance) and moulded plastic
parts for fixtures and detailing.
Practical features such as a tough aluminium undercarriage
clad in contour scale foam fairings, a steerable tail wheel and
a dummy engine are testament to the detail that ST Model go to
in their designs.
The wings feature real Fowler flaps, just like
the original, which are highly effective and allow landings to
become impossibly slow without stalling. The aileron hinges work
in a similar way to be effective at all speeds and reduce the chances
of tip stalling during slow speed flight.
Last but not least are a full set of Navigation,
Landing and Identification lights. Some are fixed and some flash
as they should. 5 servos are pre-installed and mostly connected
up to their pushrods/control surfaces.
Power come couretesy of a high output, outrunner,
brushless motor and a new 40A ESC.
Just fit a 3S 2200mAh pack plus
your own receiver and you are ready to go.
Assembly should take no more than 30 minutes and
the decals the same again. Like all ST Model aircraft, no glue
is requred.
