FlyzoneCessna 182 Skylane RTFTheHobbico FlyZone Cessna 182 Skylane is an electric powered, radiocontrolled, ready-to-fly scale model of the full size Cessna 182Skylane. Designed for beginning to intermediate flyers in mind,it is made from tough AeroCell foam and comes with everythingyou need to get started!TheCessna 182 Skylane is a FlyZone Select Scale model which meansit's bigger, more detailed, and equipped with the best technologyR/C can offer. The package includes a 5-channel Tactic 72MHz Radio,a 3-cell 1800mAh LiPopack, smart balancing charger, and A/C and D/C adapters to chargejust about anywhere! RTFContents:Allthe parts came individually wrapped and were well protectedin the box. I found no damage and was impressed with the detailsand level of pre-assembly.Thewing comes ready to go with the aileron servo, flap servo, hinges,and linkage pre-installed.Scalenavigation lights are included in the wing and vertical stabilizer.Thecontrol surfaces are hinged and ready to go.
Some of the otherparts include pre-assembled gear mains, nylon wing bolts, controlrods, struts, an 8-1/4' prop, and plastic spinner.TheFlyZone Cessna 182 Skylane includes a 3-cell 1800mAh LiPo pack,smart balancing charger, and A/C and D/C adapters to charge justabout anywhere! Note that the FlyZone charge/balance connectoris ElectriFly/E-flite compatible. The 15-page manual is loadedwith excellent photos, assembly steps, and instructions gearedfor creating a successful experience.Acloser look at the fuselage reveals the pre-installed motor andsteerable nose wheel. Air cooling and strut mounts are both readyto go! The antenna wire is already run through a tube to the backof the plane. Tubes are also pre-installed for the rudder andelevator control rods and the tail navigation wire.
Note thatthe receiver and servos are pre-installed also.Itested the ElectriFly 3-Cell 11.1v LiPo Balancing Charger thatcame with the Cessna RTF package and found no issues. It is asimple plug-and-play solution that cannot be fooled. The chargeris fed by either 12v DC power from the supplied AC wall adapteror the automobile cigarette/utility adapter. The LiPo pack chargeconnector is keyed so it can only be plugged in one way. The lightswent both solid red and green when the battery was charging andonly the red light remained on when it was finished.Assembly:Theassembly starts by mounting the main landing gear.
This is doneby installing two screws and replacing the landing gear coverafter removing the pre-applied protective adhesive strip backing.Notethe bottom hatch cover on the left is used to access the receiverand battery pack.Thevertical and horizontal stabilizers are mounted together afterfirst connecting the control rods and sliding them into the pre-installedtubes. When the rods are inserted about half way, the tail navigationwire is then inserted into the larger tube that runs down thecenter of the fuselage.
Just before the fin and stab are all theway into position, the pushrods are fed into the pre-mounted connectorson the servo arms.Aplastic retaining clip holds the tail assembly in place and thecontrol rods are held with set screws already installed in theservo arm quick links.Afterfeeding the wires past the servos and out the bottom of the fuselage,the wing easily mounts using two retainer posts that turn 90 degreesto lock in position. The posts are then covered with hatches thatsimply snap into position.Afterfirst installing eight AA-size batteries (not included) in theTactic transmitter, you can center the aileron, elevator, andrudder trims. The throttle trim and throttle stick are both loweredall the way so the motor will not turn on.Youcan then temporarily take the Tactic receiver part way out ofthe fuselage and hook up the controls.
All the servo leads andnavigation light leads are properly labeled. At this time, youcan check all the control surfaces for proper swing and centering.Sinceeverything checked out, including the 3-position flap settings,it was time for the final assembly.Theplastic spinner back plate slides onto the motor shaft and sitsover the pre-installed nut.

The prop is then secured with a washer,nut, and some thread locker. The spinner cone is attached withtwo 2.5x8mm Phillips screws.Thewing strut tubes fit into the pre-mounted plastic fairings andare then secured with 2.5x8mm screws in each end. Note that theCG of 1-7/8' should be marked by the assembler on each winghalf. This will be tested after installing the battery pack.Thebattery pack installs in the Cessna 182 nose and is held by astrip of hook and loop material. My Cessna balanced perfectly!Thelast step of the Cessna assembly was to install the antennas bysimply pushing them down into position.
If preferred, you canalso glue them with white glue or foam-safe CA.MyCessna 182 was Ready-To-Fly at 37oz including the battery pack.I did not measure the power level because the supplied connectorsdid not match anything I had for my wattmeter. My full throttletesting, while holding the plane, felt that it has plenty of power. Thisfirst video is an introduction of the Cessna 182 features. Notethat I had the scale antennas on backwards for this video andeasily reversed them for the flying photos and test flying video.They just press into pre-slotted holes in the wing.Cessna182 Skylane (7meg)Wetested the Cessna on a cold but calm winter day at a small park.The winds were 5-8mph and the temperature was 20 degrees. TheCessna performed very well as we flew in a relatively tightarea with take-off and landings in a side street surroundedby snow. The snow was a foot deep in the park but the steerablenose wheel allowed me to keep it centered in the road. The Cessnashould have plenty of power for a hand-toss, if needed.Cessna182 Skylane (15meg)Thepower level was sufficient for loops from level flight.
Theflight time was about 10 minutes and I still had some powerleft. I tried the flaps but the plane wanted to bank to theright so I switched them off because it flew slow enough withoutthem. I did not get another chance to test them until afterthe landing. My initial thought was that one flap may be loweringbefore the other one but this did not prove to be the case.The plane easily slowed to a nice landing without using theflaps. SummaryTheFlyZone Cessna 182 Skylane is a Ready-To-Fly package that includeseverything from plane to radio system to battery and charger.The Cessna 182 Skylane is the most detailed FlyZone airplane everand it is made from tough yet light Aerocell foam. This SelectScale model is also the largest FlyZone ever with a 47.5'wingspan and is packed with individual details like tinted windows,navigation lights, flaps, and a steerable nose gear complete witha shock-absorbing strut.Asshown in the video, the Cessna 182 flies quite stable and canmaneuver in a small area. However, I would only recommend thistype of scale model to an intermediate to advanced level pilotfor a successful experience.
The 72MHz Tactic radio system performedwithout a glitch and the Cessna looked great on the ground andin the air!TheFlyZone Cessna 182 Skylane includes a 3-cell 1800mAh LiPo pack,smart balancing charger, and A/C and D/C adapters to charge justabout anywhere. The 5-channel Tactic 72MHz Radio uses 8-AA batterieswhich typically last for dozens and dozens of flights.Flighttimes are an easy 10 minutes with mixed aerobatics and just cruisingaround. Other than requiring batteries for the transmitter, Ifound the Cessna 182 Skylane is truly a complete scale R/C flightsystem in a box! Saw one of these at E-Fest and went to one of the Hobby Shops and simply had to purchase this one, it did have a receiver flaw but no issues getting a replacement, range checked fine, waiting for warmer weather here but anticipate some fun flying.went over the features with a friend who actually did the assmebly and liked the way the flaps slowly advance, will experiment for landing after practicing with these in the air, the lights are really cosmetic but do add to its over all appeal, believe dusk flights should be fun.like the looks on this one, perhaps Flyzones best entry todate.TNX BEST.

As a newbie to R/C I was already to get my Cessna Select 182 'RTF' electric.
As soon as it shipped. Well, here it is, a month later and the plane does not even have the wings attached yet! After three care packages of replacement parts and approx. 15 various size set screws for the screw lock later, there it still sits. After obtaining the correct set screw, I went to attach the wings and the posts that attach them are to short!
The solution? 'We'll email you a prepaid return mail label and we will take a look at it.' Thing of it is, When I called, they gent on the phone said it's hard to believe these problems. It's been a strong runner for a long time.
The plane was brand new to the market in July 2009. Not only scary, but complete disappointment here. As a newbie to R/C I was already to get my Cessna Select 182 'RTF' electric.

When Cessna swept the tail back it lengthend the fueslage creating a little better yaw stability but reduced the effectiveness of the rudder. Turbulence can be a little jarring. I attribute this to the metal spar and struts. There just isn't much give. However, there is plenty of headroom so you won't bang your head and those big struts are real confidence builders.The 182's stability is legendary and true. Most do not have autopilots with altitude hold because you don't really need it.
I remember flying Pipers that always dropped a wing everytime I looked down. You can fly a 182 for an hour without touching the yoke. When flying in turbulence I would like a little more aileron and rudder authority.
