Dynam C-182 Cessna Autopilot 1280mm Wingspan RC Plane

Full-Scale Inspired Cessna 182 Design

The Dynam C-182 is a meticulously redesigned scale model of the popular full-size Cessna 182, created to replicate the look, proportions, and flight characteristics of the real aircraft. From the detailed fuselage lines to the navigation lights, tinted canopy, and scale three-blade propeller, every element has been refined to deliver a highly realistic appearance both on the ground and in the air.

Smart Ready-to-Fly (SRTF) Configuration

This model is supplied in Smart Ready-to-Fly (SRTF) format, meaning all major electronics are pre-installed and configured at the factory. The included receiver features a built-in gyro system, allowing pilots to benefit from stabilisation and recovery functions without complex setup. Minor assembly is all that is required before flight, making preparation quick and straightforward.

Advanced 6-Axis Autopilot & Auto-Recovery System

At the heart of the aircraft is a 6-axis gyro autopilot system, integrated into the Detrum SR86A mini receiver. This system continuously monitors aircraft attitude and automatically applies corrective inputs to maintain level flight. The result is a model that remains stable at medium and high speeds, while still offering excellent control authority at low speeds.

The auto-recovery function provides additional confidence, helping new pilots avoid disorientation and loss of control, while experienced flyers can enjoy relaxed cruising or precision manoeuvres.

Large Wingspan & Realistic Flight Characteristics

With a 1280mm wingspan and carefully balanced wing loading of 43.5 g/dm^2, the C-182 delivers smooth lift generation and gentle stall behaviour. This combination allows the aircraft to fly slowly and predictably while still maintaining realistic handling. The airframe is equally comfortable performing steady circuits or more advanced manoeuvres such as loops, stall turns, inverted flight, and point rolls.

Scale Flaps & Ground Handling

The aircraft is equipped with functional scale flaps, which significantly reduce landing speeds and shorten landing runs, enhancing realism and control during approach. On the ground, the shock-resistant front landing gear and scale steerable nose wheel allow smooth taxiing, controlled take-offs, and confident ground handling from paved or short grass surfaces.

Powerful Brushless Performance

A BM2815A-KV1100 brushless outrunner motor, paired with a 30A ESC, provides ample power for short take-off distances and strong climb performance. The included 11.1V 2200mAh 25C Li-Po battery delivers long endurance, with flight times of up to 20 minutes per charge under typical flying conditions.

Durable EPO Foam Construction

The airframe is manufactured from high-strength EPO foam, chosen for its excellent balance of rigidity, flexibility, and impact resistance. A high-gloss surface finish improves durability while enhancing visual appeal. Structural reinforcement is provided by a carbon wing tube, which strengthens the wings while allowing easy disassembly for transport.

Pilot-Friendly Design Details

Practical features such as a large battery hatch, removable EPO cowl, and modular wing design make battery changes, maintenance, and transport simple. These thoughtful design elements make the C-182 equally suitable for beginners learning to fly and intermediate pilots seeking a capable scale trainer.
