It combines a detailed scale fuselage, four-blade main rotor and\n    enclosed tail rotor with FlyWing's ACE GPS-assisted flight-control system.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eDoes the EC-135 support GPS-assisted flight?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Yes. Its ACE flight controller uses M10 GPS positioning to assist with stable\n    hovering and position holding in suitable outdoor conditions. GPS assistance\n    requires a reliable satellite lock before takeoff.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between GPS and attitude modes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    GPS mode assists with position and altitude holding. Attitude mode provides\n    self-leveling assistance but does not automatically hold the helicopter at a\n    fixed horizontal position.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eDoes the model use a ducted tail rotor?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Yes. The model reproduces the full-size EC135's distinctive enclosed tail-rotor\n    design. This is an important part of its scale appearance and differentiates it\n    from helicopters using a conventional exposed tail rotor.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eIs this helicopter ready to fly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Yes. This is the RTF configuration and arrives factory assembled with its matched\n    control system. Always verify the included package contents, charge the required\n    batteries and complete all prescribed setup, calibration and preflight procedures\n    before flying.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eWho is the FlyWing EC-135 intended for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    It is intended for RC pilots seeking a detailed scale helicopter with GPS-assisted\n    stability. Although the stabilization system makes it more approachable than a\n    traditional unstabilized scale helicopter, it remains a large, powerful RC aircraft\n    and must be operated responsibly in a suitable open flying area.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eAre the full-size EC135 specifications applicable to this model?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    No. Published figures such as the full-size aircraft's takeoff weight, cruising\n    speed, range and service ceiling describe the real Airbus helicopter—not the\n    FlyWing RC model.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#ff7a00;\"\u003eImportant GPS Operating Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    GPS-assisted flight requires a strong satellite lock and an open outdoor flying\n    area. Always follow the FlyWing manual, complete the required compass calibration\n    and preflight checks, and maintain control of the helicopter throughout the flight.\n    GPS assistance does not replace safe piloting practices.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Flywing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44239729557582,"sku":"FW-EC135-BW","price":899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8558\/8558\/files\/EC-135-_-11.webp?v=1787956822","url":"https:\/\/newenglandrc.us\/products\/flywing-ec-135-470l-ace-gps-rtf-helicopter-black-white","provider":"New England RC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
