The R/C Daredevil 3D Takes You to New Levels of 3D Fun and Power!
You Don't have to be Evel Knievel to Appreciate the Insane Acrobatics of the 3D Daredevil
Powered by a 3600kv brushless motor, the Daredevil is an aggressive vertical climber capable or speeds up to 50 mph in level flight! The Daredevil motor is so powerful that the folks at Parkflyers had to re-engineer a new Hard Resin Propeller to withstand the insanely powerful torque. This thing will take off right out of your hand at full throttle.
15-18 minute run times are the norm thanks to the 1300 mah 11.1 volt Li-Po 3 cell battery pack.(Li-Po batteries are state of the art in RC wet cell technology)
The Daredevil's large control surfaces allow for up to 45 degree deflection, giving you precision 3D Aerobatic Moves right at the control of your hand, while its dual ailerons create lightning fast rolls that amaze any onlookers in awe! Equipped with an E-Fly 100 receiver that boasts 2500 foot range, the Daredevil can rule the park sky if you know how to use it!
A modular wing design allows for easy inside access to electronics, while the small bead foam is easily repairable with 2 part epoxy glue in case you get a little “too” creative with your Daredevil acrobatics.
The Daredevil 3D Electric R/C Bi-Plane arrives at your door with everything needed to fly.
Please Note: Use the vertical battery bay in the most front position on the underside of the Daredevil fuselage for proper Center of Gravity.

What Do These RC Features Mean?
Radio: PPM Stands for Pulse Position Modulation. PPM is advantageous because the electronics required to decode the signal are small, light-weight receiver/decoder units, allowing for faster more controlled piloting
Motor: Brushless motors can be up to 300% more powerful than brushed motors since they work without friction, this means they last longer as well.
Kv Rating: Refers to Revolutions per Minute (RPM) per Volt, so the 3600Kv motor powered by the 11.1v Li-Poly battery (Li-Po) will yield 3600 x 11.1 = 39,960 RPM with no load
Li-Po: Stands for Lithium-ion Polymer (Li-Po) The newest major development in RC battery cell technology. Offering more power, and longer run times than NiCD and NiMH. Li-Po batteries have dramatically transformed the face of electric rc flight to the point where they are competing with Nitro fueled planes.
Control Surfaces:
The Four Primary controls of an airplane are:
Throttle (motor control, or speed control. Think of propeller)
Elevator (Hinged section of the back of the tail that move up and down, when they are up the nose goes up for climbing, when they are down the nose goes down for diving. This is known as the pitch altitude)
Ailerons (Hinged sections of the back of the Wing for rolling. One side goes up while the other side goes down, this causes the roll motion)
Rudder (The Tail's “FIN”). Used for steering, if the rudder turns left the plane foes right and vice versa)
These are collectively known as control surfaces, these are the same as those found on real airplanes and control the RC model in exactly the same way.
