Description:

First introduced in 1965 by de Havilland Canada, the DHC-6 Twin Otter quickly earned its reputation as one of the toughest and most versatile STOL aircraft ever built. Designed to operate reliably in some of the world’s most extreme environments—from icy Antarctic runways to scorching desert airstrips—the Twin Otter has remained unmatched in its class for decades. The E-flite® Twin Otter 1.4m captures the spirit and capability of this legendary aircraft in a highly detailed scale RC model that serves as an excellent first twin-motor platform for intermediate to experienced pilots.

Combining stability, scale realism, and user-friendly flight characteristics, the Twin Otter 1.4m is equipped with functional features such as operational flaps, LED navigation and landing lights, and provisions for optional float installation. The Bind-N-Fly® Basic version includes enhanced AS3X+® stabilization that more effectively smooths turbulence and wind effects, along with optional SAFE® Select flight envelope protection to increase confidence during takeoff, flight, and landing. Differential thrust and optional motor reversing further enhance ground and water handling capabilities.

With its high-wing configuration and larger-than-1.2m yet easily transportable size, the Twin Otter 1.4m delivers excellent visibility and predictable handling. It can be flown fully assembled from paved runways, grass fields, and packed dirt surfaces at parks, sports fields, or RC airfields. For even more versatility, the landing gear can be removed and optional floats—shared with popular Timber 1.2m and 1.5m models—can be installed to allow operation from lakes and ponds.

The airframe features molded panel lines, corrugated control surfaces, and an authentic modern trim scheme for impressive scale appearance. Counter-rotating three-blade propellers with black-and-white tips add realism both in the air and on the ground. Factory-installed servos, including a durable metal-geared servo for nose-wheel steering, provide precise and dependable control across the entire flight envelope. Power is supplied by twin Spektrum™ brushless outrunner motors and an Avian™ Dual 25-amp Smart Lite ESC compatible with popular 3S and 4S 2200–3200mAh batteries. The result is a unique, capable, and highly enjoyable twin-engine flying experience for a wide range of RC pilots.
