The Cessna 182 Skylane is an American four-seat, single-engine, light
airplane, built by Cessna of Wichita, Kansas. It has the option of
adding two child seats, installed in the baggage area. The Cessna 182
was introduced in 1956 as a tricycle gear variant of the 180. In 1957,
the 182A variant was introduced along with the name Skylane.
Later models have added more powerful engines and bigger windows.
Cessna cites the 1990s resumption in producing general aviation aircraft
such as this model due to change in U.S. liability laws. In 2005,
Cessna began offering the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit as an optional
upgrade to the Skylane. Subsequently the glass cockpit became standard
equipment.
What does PNP mean? PNP stands for plug and play,
and describes a model that is somewhere between Almost Ready to Fly
(ARF) and Ready to Fly (RTF). A PNP model has the motor, ESC, servos and
some radio gear installed but is missing the receiver, transmitter,
batteries and charger.
Included is an electronic speed controller, electric brushless motor
and 4 electric servos all pre-installed. A 4ch transmitter which is
required to complete the model gives full 3D control of the aileron,
elevator, rudder, and throttle. The brushless motors gives enormous
powerallowing full aerobatic characteristics and inside loops, outside
loops, axial rolls, inverted flight and spins are all possible.
The attention to detail from Starmax who are the leading rc jet
manufacturers gives the plane a nice realistic appearance. The plane can
take off from the ground or can be hand launched. The Cessna is made
from shock resistant EPS foam with reinforced fuselage and strong wings.
Should you need any spare parts though they are all available from our
site. This plane is a lot of fun and you will certainly enjoy flying
this fantastic model.
