I purchased this Cessna 182 5CH, 55in-wingspan, EPO foam, PNP (plug-and-play, a.k.a. receiver-ready or Rx-R) RC Airplane with flaps and lights on eBay from seller “ciciflyers” for $125 plus shipping and tax. There was no brand name on the listing, and it arrived in a white box with absolutely no branding or stickers. Even the instruction manual did not list the country-of-origin or manufacturer; however the manual was well-written in almost perfect English. Despite the plainness of the box, the fit-and-finish and material quality of the contents were on par with quality you would expect from name brands, except for a few minor issues, which I talk about in this video and provide solutions to. Using the address of the sender, I was able to link the seller to the Value Hobby in IL. On their website, I found a listing of the exact same plane with the same pictures used in the eBay listing and same price: www.ebay.com/itm/55in-EPO-Foam-6CH-Cessna-182-RC-E… www.valuehobby.com/airplanes/all-airplanes/55in-ce… During my internet search, I also realized that the RC name brand FMS was offering the same or a very similar model (FMS Sky Trainer 182). I suspect that this noname airplane and the Sky Trainer are made in the same factory in China. Here are some of the websites featuring or selling the FMS Sky Trainer 182 as an RTF package: www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?I=FMMA1002 www.horizonhobby.com/sky-trainer-182-1400mm-rtf-bl… www.amazon.com/FMS-Sky-Trainer-182-1400mm/dp/B071L… This video presents the unboxing and detailed assembly of my 55” Cessna 182. Here are the links to the receiver, battery, and battery adapter I used to complete this airplane and bind it to my old but dependable Spektrum DX6i transmitter: Receiver: StormRC S603 6-Channel 2.4GHz DSMX Receiver www.ebay.com/itm/2x-RC-Storm-S603-Receiver-For-Spe… Battery: Turnigy 2200mAh 3S 25C Lipo Pack hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-2200mah-3s-25c-lipo-pa… Battery Connector Adapter: 2Pcs XT60 Male To Deans T Plug Connector Female Conversion Adapter Wireless Car www.ebay.com/itm/2Pcs-XT60-Male-To-Deans-T-Plug-Co… In the next episode, I will be featuring the maiden flight of this airplane, so please stay tuned.
