FMS 500mm PA-18 Super Cub RTF R/C Airplane

By: Tim Gluth

Summertime's the right time for flying, and FMS has a new, beginner-friendly R/C plane that's ready to take to the sky. The 500mm PA-18 Super Cub RTF is a smaller-sized aircraft that appears to punch above its weight class by offering some pilot assistance features that should make flights with this machine quite enjoyable.

Among the features of the 500mm PA-18 Super Cub RTF are a lightweight fuselage and wings made of EPP foam, a propeller that detaches upon impact, and gyro-assisted flight with simplified stunt and return-to-home functions.

The 500mm PA-18 Super Cub RTF is powered by a 1020 hollow cup/coreless motor, which is powerful enough to allow for short takeoffs and landings, meaning you won't need a large amount of runway to get this plane into the air.

This R/C plane can be flown in three flight modes (full stabilization, optimized stabilization, and manual control), each designed to cater to different experience levels. This model is a ready-to-fly (RTR) aircraft, including everything necessary for flight in one package: the battery, charger, and transmitter.

The FMS 500mm PA-18 Super Cub RTF is priced at $99.99 and is available through FMS and their dealers. Visit fmshobby.com to learn more about this small-sized radio-controlled airplane.
