Motor with folding propeller
The Arcus II model has a 28x30mm 1100KV AC motor and a 20A 2-3S LiPol regulator installed. Thanks to this powerful propulsion package, the Arcus II has enough power for a rapid climb to altitude, when the throttle is released, the propeller blades fold along the fuselage to reduce drag when gliding without the engine.
Removal cabin
There is enough space under the removal cabin for the controller, the drive battery and your receiver. A 4+channel RC set and a 3-cell LiPol battery (11.1V) are recommended.
Chassis wheel
A fixed wheel and a sliding plastic part are installed on the underside of the fuselage. This will prevent damage to the fuselage if it flips over at the tip during landing.
Hull spur
The tail surfaces are better protected from damage by a raised spur that is installed below the elevator.
We recommend to buy
We recommend purchasing a 4+ channel RC kit, a 1300mAh 3S LiPol battery and a charger.
Recommended batteries
We recommend a 3-cell (11.1 V) LiPol drive battery to power the model.
- For light weight Spektrum Smart LiPo 11.1V 1300mAh 30C IC3 with IC3 connector with Smart technology and balancer connector.
- For economy flying Spektrum Smart G2 LiPo 11.1V 2200mAh 30C IC3 with IC3 connector with Smart technology
Spektrum batteries with Smart technology currently represent the most modern and safest way to maintain and charge batteries. The benefits of Spektrum Smart technology can be found here.
Recommended Spektrum transmitters
To pair the BNF version model, we recommend modern SPEKTRUM programmable transmitters:
- 6-channel DX Spektrum DX6e DSMX series transmitter with telemetry, 250 models in memory .
- 6-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX6 DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
- 8-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX8 DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
Recommended chargers for conventional LiPol and Smart batteries
If you decide to use modern Smart LiPo batteries in RC models of airplanes or helicopters, or to charge your batteries from other manufacturers, then we recommend the following chargers:
- Network charger Spektrum S155 with one output 1x 55W .
- Network charger Spektrum S1100 with one output 1x 100W .
- Network charger Spektrum S2100 with one output 2x 100W .
- Network charger Spektrum S2200 with two outputs 2x 200W .
Accessories for normal operation
For the normal operation of flying RC models, you need suitable adhesives, a set of tools and a storage case for LiPol batteries. From our assortment, we recommend a quality set of 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0mm allen screwdrivers and Modelcraft Phillips screwdrivers (set of 6). Modelcraft mini pliers in a case (set) will certainly come in handy for assembly, and for cutting a Modelcraft cutting knife with an A6 pad.
For quick repair of model airplanes, we recommend the fast-curing 4-minute Epoxy glue. From our offer, we recommend Speed Epoxy 4 min. 71g
Protective covers for accumulators
Protective packaging is intended to limit the risk associated with the transport and charging of accumulators. LiPo accumulators, while maintaining small dimensions and low weight, can provide high discharge currents and have a large capacity. The LiPo battery is particularly susceptible to mechanical damage and therefore needs to be thoroughly protected.
