E-flite Viper 1.07m SAFE Select BNF Basic

SMART technology

The Viper Jet EDF 64mm RC model airplane is equipped with a Spektrum Avian controller, which can provide a variety of real-time telemetry data, such as motor speed, current, battery voltage. With compatible Spektrum RC transmitters equipped with Spektrum AirWare™ (including DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, DX9, NX6, 8 and 10, iX12, iX14 , iX20 and others), you can see this data on the transmitter display. The regulator also supports motor reversal.

Powerful blower

The 11-blade rotor of the 64mm blower in combination with the high-speed AC motor, the 70A regulator and the optional 4S 2200mAh 50+C to 3200mAh 30+C LiPol battery ensure high drive dynamics, therefore the model has an incredible range of speeds with practically instant throttle response. But what immediately catches everyone's attention is the amazing sound made by the blower - almost like a real turbine.

Suspension chassis

You can install the included solid landing gear with shock absorbers, drag link legs and steerable nose wheel without any tools for taxiing, taking off and landing on low grass. Or you can remove the landing gear for more speed and vertical performance, plus easy hand-offs and landings, taking advantage of the sculpted finger grips and automatic Hand Launch Assist mode.

Functional flaps

The Viper Jet EDF model has flaps installed that will effectively reduce the flight speed during takeoff and landing. You can also make spectacular low passes at minimal speeds. This makes the Viper 64mm the perfect next jet model for those transitioning from simpler EDF models.

Unrivaled capabilities

The Viper Jet EDF 64mm has almost unlimited vertical performance and acrobatic abilities that stand out thanks to a very elegant design. The speed range of the model is huge, from minimum on flaps to maximum at full throttle. In order to take advantage of these advantages, it is necessary to use high-quality LiPol batteries that can withstand a high current load. Batteries are not included in the package.

Strong and light

The model is completely made in molds of solid and rigid EPO foam, which is strongly reinforced in important places. As a whole, the structure stands out for its very low weight and high rigidity, which is a basic prerequisite for an otherwise energy-intensive jet.

AS3X™ stabilization

The Spektrum receiver is equipped with AS3X technology, which helps stabilize the model in flight. The receiver contains a three-axis MEMS gyro and an accelerometer, and thanks to electronic stabilization, control of the model is simplified, e.g. in windy weather. The model reacts similarly to a much larger model and its flight is calm without maintaining its full controllability. AS3X brings more confidence in driving.

SAFE Select™ technology for beginners

Thanks to the SAFE Select technology used, the model can be driven even by a less experienced pilot . The SAFE system prevents oversteer when cornering and also limits climbs and descents. Simply releasing the controller's control sticks will return the model to level flight. These functions will be especially appreciated by novice pilots who are not yet fully confident in driving the models.

As the name SAFE Select itself suggests, this is an optional feature - it's up to you whether you want to use or disable SAFE technology. The pairing method determines whether the SAFE function should be turned on or off. It is also possible to switch the SAFE function on or off even in flight using a free transmitter channel.

Advantages of the SAFE Select™ function:

• 
  
• It limits the maximum tilts of the model and thus prevents the model from going into a corkscrew.
  
• Automatically puts the model into horizontal flight when the transmitter control sticks are released
  
• Using a free channel, the SAFE system can be turned off or on during flight.
  

Recommended Spektrum transmitters

For pairing the BNF version model, we recommend modern SPEKTRUM programmable transmitters:

• 
  
• 6 Channel DX Spektrum DX6e DSMX Series Transmitter with Telemetry, 250 Models in Memory .
  
• 7-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX7e DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility .
  
• 8-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX8 DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
  
• 14-channel transmitter of the NX+ Spektrum NX7e+ DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility .
  
• 20-channel transmitter of the NX+ Spektrum NX8+ DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
  

Recommended batteries

We recommend a 4-cell (14.8 V) LiPol drive battery to power the model.

• 
  
• LiPol accumulator 30C Spektrum Smart LiPo 14.8V 3200mAh 30C IC3 with Smart technology.
  
• LiPol LiPo battery 50C Spektrum Smart LiPo 14.8V 3200mAh 50C IC3 with Smart technology
  
• LiPol LiPo battery 100C Spektrum Smart LiPo 14.8V 3200mAh 100C IC3 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 chargers for conventional and Smart batteries

If you decide to use modern Smart LiPo batteries in RC model airplanes, then we recommend the following chargers:

• 
  
• Network charger Spektrum S1100AC with one output 1x 100W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S1400 with one output 1x 400W .
  
• 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 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0 mm Allen screwdrivers and Modelcraft Phillips screwdrivers (set of 6). Modelcraft mini pliers in a case (set) and Modelcraft cutting knife with A6 pad for cutting will certainly come in handy for assembly.

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.
