The E-flite Micro OV-10 Bronco is the most affordable and easiest-to-fly recreation yet of the legendary twin-engine turboprop aircraft used for light attack and observation missions. Despite its compact dimensions, it offers impressive scale detail, modern Spektrum technology and powerful twin-brushless performance.
The model arrives completely factory assembled. As a Bind-N-Fly Basic model, it is already equipped with two brushless outrunner motors, four servos, the required electronic speed controllers and a Spektrum DSMX receiver. To complete the model, only a compatible Spektrum transmitter, a suitable 3S LiPo battery and an appropriate charger are required.
Powerful twin-brushless drive system
Two powerful brushless outrunner motors with counter-rotating propellers provide excellent flight characteristics, high efficiency and impressive climb performance. The Micro OV-10 Bronco is compatible with widely available 3S LiPo batteries from 600 to 850mAh, delivering long flight times together with powerful performance.
AS3X and SAFE Select
Exclusive Spektrum AS3X technology automatically compensates for the effects of wind and turbulence, providing an exceptionally smooth and precise flight experience. This makes the compact Bronco feel similar to a much larger aircraft in the air.
SAFE Select can also be activated when required. The system limits pitch and bank angles while providing automatic self-leveling. This makes the Bronco easier to control, while experienced pilots can deactivate SAFE Select whenever unrestricted control is preferred.
Automatic Hand Launch Assist
The integrated Hand Launch Assist supports the pilot when launching the model without its landing gear installed. After release, the system automatically stabilizes the aircraft and helps provide a safe transition into normal flight.
Real-time telemetry
The integrated Spektrum control unit transmits various telemetry data to compatible Spektrum transmitters. Available information includes battery voltage, current draw and additional power-system data. Telemetry can be used with both Smart and conventional non-Smart batteries.
Fly with or without the landing gear
The included landing gear features a steerable nose wheel and allows takeoffs and landings from paved surfaces. Alternatively, the landing gear can be quickly removed to reduce weight and drag. In this configuration, the model can be hand launched and landed on grass.
Highly detailed scale appearance
The lightweight and durable EPS airframe features numerous scale details along with plastic and composite reinforcements in high-stress areas. Its high-quality finish is inspired by an aircraft operated by the Philippine Air Force. Functional LED navigation lights further enhance the scale appearance while improving visibility in flight.
Fully equipped and quickly ready to fly
Optional external scale accessories, including rockets, weapons, a drop tank and a pitot tube, are included. The Micro OV-10 Bronco arrives completely factory assembled and can be ready to fly within minutes after installing a suitable battery and binding it to a compatible Spektrum transmitter.
