Alpha V2 1500mm ARF Green

ALPHA 1500 V2 comes in a new, improved version and new colourful livery now. Although she might look the same at first view, upon closer examination, you will find a bunch of changes making the flying and everyday maintenance much nicer and easier. To name a few – new KAVAN GO-09 Plus digital servos, all-ball-linked control linkages, or a new wing joiner. A powerful brushless motor with a new generation 30 A ESC and 3S LiPo offers enough power not just for regular motor glider flying but also for a good deal of aerobatic stunts. Your ALPHA 1500 V2 will “grow up“ along with you and your improving pilot skills, whilst an experienced pilot will find her a lot of fun from the first minute!

ALPHA 1500V2 is an elegant motor glider powered by a brushless motor featuring aileron, elevator, and rudder control. Rugged, yet light, airframe made of virtually unbreakable EPO foam makes her crash-proof – or at least easy to repair if something really serious happened. Lightweight LiPo flight pack offers a lot of energy; you can use any at least 4-channel RC set to control the model. ALPHA 1500V2 is simply here to give you as trouble-free a flight experience as possible.

The EPO foam fuselage comes with the C2217-1200 brushless motor, KAVAN R-30B Plus ESC (with enhanced programming capabilities), and elevator and rudder servos installed. The detachable canopy is secured with a magnetic lock. The 8.5×6” folding propeller uses standard 8×6” blades (the increased overall diameter is due to a longer yoke used). The cooling air intakes on both sides of the nose keep the motor, ESC, and flight battery nice and cool; the air outlet is located on the bottom of the fuselage. The two-piece EPO wing with carbon main spars is supplied with two aileron servos and their linkage installed. The EPO empennage is detachable, secured with two bolts. The elevator and rudder are controlled by a pair of wire push rods.

Preparing for the first flight is a breeze: attach and secure the horizontal and vertical tailplane with two bolts, join the wing haves and secure with two bolts, connect the servos and ESC to your receiver, connect your flight pack – that’s all folks!

You will need at least a 4-channel RC set to control your ALPHA 1500 V2. Using a computer radio featuring some advanced set-up options and mixes is always an advantage; you can have independent control of both aileron servos, allowing for aileron differential and airbrake mixing. Dual rates or exponentials can make the model control much easier as well.

You will need an 11.1 V 1000–1300 mAh LiPo flight pack (at least 20C) to fly your ALPHA 1500 V2.

ALPHA 1500 V2 is suitable for beginners (under the guidance of a skilled pilot, do not try to start all alone, please!) – as well as any Sunday flyer or anybody who just wants to have some fun. The default setup makes her a gentle and docile model, offering a good way to learn and improve your flying skills step by step. You will learn the correct and timely way of stick handling, coordinated turns using ailerons, elevator, and rudder simultaneously...everything you will need with your next model - a large glider, an aerobatic plane, a (semi)scale model. The linkage design, as well as the transmitter with PC or Android/iOS application setting options, makes the adjustment easy. A beginner can start with small and safe servo throws, while an experienced pilot may opt for larger servo throws and aerobatic stunts. Loops, barrel rolls, and stall turns are easy with your ALPHA 1500 V2 thanks to the powerful motor. The motor makes the thermal hunting easy as well, gaining a nice altitude takes just a moment – now you can just relax and soar!

EPO fuselage with the brushless motor, 30A ESC, 8.5×6" folding propeller, and 2 servos installed, EPO wing with 2 servos and LED lights installed, EPO horizontal and vertical tailplane, aluminium alloy wing joiner, and instruction manual.
