Coupled with an realistic pilot figure, instrument panels, and control yokes, the interior immerses you in a real cockpit experience. These unique scale details are a proud feature of FMS, allowing you to indulge in the joy of scale model flying.

Faithfully Reproduced Scale Details

The FMS 1500mm Cessna 182 includes more scale realism for model aircraft of its size and type, meticulously reproducing every detail of the real aircraft from the intake grille to the engine exhaust, multiple realistic antennas, landing gear fairings, and chrome plated propeller spinner. The concealed servo horn in the flap design also enhances the aircraft's aesthetics, aligning closely with the full-scale aircraft.

Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL)

The 1500mm Cessna 182 has excellent short takeoff and landing capabilities, easily handling distances within three meters. Equipped with a robust propulsion system and effective flaps, it ensures quick takeoffs and landings even on smaller fields or confined areas.

Capable of Handling Rough Landings

The 1500mm Cessna 182 features CNC metal shock-absorbing landing gear set and wear-resistant tires, effectively resisting rough landings. Enhanced with damping silicone oil, the landing gear provides even cushioning, facilitating smoother travel and enhanced performance on rough surfaces or uneven airstrips.

Outstanding Low-Speed Flight Performance

The aircraft's wing design ensures stability and maneuverability during low-speed flight. It excels at low-altitude flying, slow cruising, and observation or photography tasks. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced pilot, you can effortlessly enjoy the thrill of low-speed flight.

Quick Glue-Free Assembly

Assembly can be completed in just 10 minutes which includes securing the fuselage and landing gear with screws. The main wing features a plug-in integrated installation structure, the wing strut includes a groove-type installation structure, and the horizontal and vertical tails use a combination snap-in installation structure. The two-piece fuselage reduces packaging size by 30% which simplifies transportation and storage.

High-Performance Power System

The FMS 1500mm Cessna 182 is equipped with a 3541-KV840 brushless motor, a 40A brushless ESC, and a durable and efficient nylon-reinforced three-blade propeller. The power system provides the aircraft with sufficient thrust and speed so it can effortlessly execute vertical climbs and advanced flying maneuvers.

Powerful Reverse Thrust Function

The ESC allows you to taxi the Cessna in reverse on the ground. Activating the reverse thrust function after landing can slow it down. The robust ESC includes various protection features such as overheating protection, low voltage protection, and signal loss protection. This design makes the aircraft more flexible during taxi on the ground and also in the water using the optional floats.

Fly From Water with Our Optional Floats

The optional floats (sold separately) make your Cessna stand out. They allow you to take off, taxi, and land from lakes, rivers, or beaches. With floats installed, unlock boundless water fun and excitement.

Enhanced Visibility with Bright Navigation Lights

Seven bright navigation lights illuminate the aircraft … including five wing lights, one tail light, and one vertical tail light which perfectly replicate the details of the full-scale aircraft. These lights make the aircraft more eye-catching during flight, especially during dusk or nighttime flights, improving visibility and safety during the flight process.

Choose Reflex V3 for Safer Flying

Reflex V3 (sold separately) is a stable flight technology that assists pilots during takeoff and landing, helps stabilize the aircraft during normal flight and emergency situations, and minimizes the likelihood of crashes. The Reflex V3 can connect to a mobile phone via Bluetooth with the FMS app and provides customizable parameter and adjustment capabilities for FMS aircraft as well as other model aircraft.

Excellent Wind Resistance

The 1500mm wingspan of the Cessna 182 improves the aircraft's wind resistance, allowing it to maintain a stable flight attitude when encountering crosswinds or airflow disturbances thus reducing the risk of lateral drift and imbalance.

Cessna 182 1500mm

This plane is awesome. It is my 6th RC plane. I wanted to go back to something more laid back after flying adrenaline pumping warbirds for a while. I would not recommend it for your first plane, but it handles very easy if you know how to set up a receiver and everything. I ordered the floats after a few flight and can’t wait to take it out on the water. The only issue I had out of the box was the left wing strut. It would not snap in due to a slight bend in the clip, but I was able to bend it into place with pliers fairly easily. I bought it on sale for Black Friday, but unfortunately I could not recommend buying it at full price even though it is a good plane. $260 is fair in my opinion but it does not feel high quality enough to be a $300 plane. I’m sure the price is due to the extra cost required to use the Cessna logo though.

Stay away from this company!!

I bought a $250 R?C plane 6 months ago. I finally had time in my retirement 3 weeks ago to put it together and enjoy it, Six of eight vital pontoon screws were missing from the box and FMS refuses to send them to me. Plane is useless to me now. They dont care about their customers.

This was a very easy build, and easy flier.

The plane went together very easy. I installed a spektrum AR631 and set up AS3X and Safe. The first flight was great. It flew with no issues. The second flight was just like the first. The removable wings worked like they should. I got a lot of help from Brian Philips RC on the build and radio setup. All the other pilots at the field liked how it looked and flew. I am very happy with the 182 and would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy to build and fly aircraft.
