Description

The E-flite Timber X 1.2m combines the STOL capabilities of the original Timber with a new wing design, oversized control surfaces, and a more powerful 3S and 4S compatible power system for 3D performance. It has a lightweight yet strong airframe for extreme aerobatic maneuvers, high-torque metal-geared servos, and shock-absorbing landing gear. It also has LED lights and optional leading-edge slats for improved slow flight performance or optional floats for water takeoff and landing. The Timber X offers a "mild to wild" experience for pilots of all skill levels.

AS3X® and SAFE® Select Technologies for Easier Control
AS3X® and SAFE® Select Technologies for Easier Control

This plane is equipped with exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works seamlessly to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence, providing a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger aeroplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-levelling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make it easier to take off, fly, and land!

Unrivalled Aerial Agility
Unrivalled Aerial Agility

The Timber® X 1.2m boasts extreme manoeuvrability, featuring a new wing design with a shortened span plus much larger ailerons and flaps, along with an enlarged elevator and rudder. Double-bevelled hinge lines enable every control surface, including the flaps with two-way travel, to deflect to high angles. This provides outstanding control and thrilling 3D aerobatic capability, allowing pilots to perform complex manoeuvres with confidence. Pockets in the rear fuselage and an optional steel stabiliser joiner offer fine-tuning for even wilder 3D setups.

Blistering Brushless Thrust
Blistering Brushless Thrust

The factory-installed brushless power system in the Timber® X 1.2m ensures an abundance of thrust. Featuring a 50-amp ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop, it delivers exhilarating performance with a 3S LiPo battery, or unlocks even more power and unlimited vertical capability with a 4S battery, all without requiring any modifications or upgrades. This provides versatile performance to suit various flying styles.

Tough and Lightweight Design
Tough and Lightweight Design

The Timber® X 1.2m is built for resilience, featuring composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO material, making it both lightweight and robust. It comes equipped with high-torque, metal-geared servos for precise control, regardless of your flying style. Furthermore, the shock-absorbing landing gear and oversized tundra-style wheels of the original model allow you to fly aggressively from almost any surface.

Exceptional Short Take of and Landing Performance
Exceptional Short Take of and Landing Performance

The Timber® X 1.2m excels at STOL performance, thanks to its innovative wing design. It features a shorter span yet almost as much wing area as the Timber 1.5m, complemented by drooped wingtips and included optional leading-edge slats for improved slow flight. These features, along with its lightweight design, oversized flaps and high-power brushless motor, make it possible to spring into the air or gently float down to land in as little as two feet or less.

All-Day, All-Night Visibility
All-Day, All-Night Visibility
