The E-flite Super Decathlon 1.2m delivers all the same great features and performance of the RJG model – plus more too – and by popular demand, is now factory-finished with one of the most iconic trim schemes!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text text--variant_roboto-heading4 fw_medium\"\u003eE-flite Super Decathlon 1.2m BNF Basic with AS3X+ and SAFE Select\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eOverview\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text text--variant_static16\"\u003ePilots and instructors widely regard the Super Decathlon as one of the best aerobatic trainers in full-scale aviation. Its iconic design traces its roots back to the Aeronca Champ and Citabria, but was upgraded with inverted fuel and oil systems, plus a nearly symmetrical wing, to allow it to perform “outside” and inverted maneuvers with ease. The original E-flite® Decathlon RJG 1.2m quickly became known as one of the most capable, well-equipped, and easiest-to-fly models of the American aviation classic. Now it's available again with one of the most recognizable and iconic Super Decathlon trim and color schemes, featuring all the same great features and performance of the original – and even more! Featuring the same “friendly handling” airfoil and wing design, it's capable of smooth sport flying for low-time and intermediate pilots to more aggressive aerobatic flying for experienced pilots, without the “bad manners” many other Super Decathlon models are known for. It features LED landing and navigation lights along with a variety of scale details to deliver an authentic flying experience. The Super Decathlon also features improved digital, metal-geared servos throughout, along with a 3S- and 4S-compatible power system including a 45A Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart Lite ESC. Plus, the BNF Basic version now features an upgraded AR631+ receiver, delivering real-time telemetry data alongside enhanced AS3X+, SAFE Select, and Smart Transmitter File (STF) technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text text--variant_static16\"\u003eTake the next step into, hone your skills, and perform basic to aggressive aerobatics with the E-flite® Super Decathlon 1.2m – one of the most capable and best-handling models of the classic aerobatic trainer ever! Like the original Decathlon RJG 1.2m, it's a replica of the aviation icon that's flown by professional pilots in airshows and pilots learning to fly aerobatics at their local airport. It's factory-finished with the popular and extremely recognizable red, white, and black “starburst” trim scheme, plus it features a variety of scale details, including functional LED landing and navigation lights, wheel pants, and wing struts. The one-piece wing is easy to install\/remove thanks to hands-free connections and thumbscrews, and the struts snap into\/out of place without the need for any fasteners or tools – even though it's conveniently sized to be easy to store and transport without disassembly! Improved digital and metal-geared servos, along with ball-link equipped linkages, provide even more precise and reliable control for smooth sport to aggressive aerobatic flying. Both versions feature a 3S and 4S 2200–3200mAh compatible power system, including a 45-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart Lite ESC. The BNF Basic version is also equipped with an upgraded AR631+ receiver to deliver real-time telemetry data, enhanced AS3X+, optional-use SAFE Select and motor reversing, and a convenient Smart Transmitter File. All these details and features combine to deliver a convenient and extremely capable scale model that's an excellent choice for low-time, intermediate, and experienced pilots!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul
