Description

Some fans of the first Radian 2.0m motor glider loved it so much, they added lights to continue flying at night. The E-flite team took note and added vividly colored, factory-installed LEDs throughout the airframe, offering the visibility and orientation needed to fly at dusk or even in total darkness with the original Night Radian. Now they've improved the popular model again by updating it with a modern, higher-visibility trim scheme and upgrading it with a telemetry-capable ESC. Using a compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitter and Smart receiver (such as the AR631 included in the Bind-N-Fly Basic version), Night Radian 2.0m pilots can now view a variety of telemetry data in real time including motor RPM, current, overall battery voltage and more. These new capabilities make the Night Radian 2.0m an even better choice for your first or next glider — plus sport and night flying capable model too! Like the legendary E-flite Radian motor gliders that came before, the Night Radian 2.0m combines the serenity of soaring with incredible sport and night flying capabilities. It also starts a new chapter in the legend by updating it with a modern trim scheme and upgrading it with a telemetry-capable ESC. Add a compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitter and Smart receiver — such as the AR631 included with the Bind-N-Fly Basic version — to view motor RPM, current, overall battery voltage and other telemetry data while you fly. High-visibility LED lights are factory-installed throughout the airframe and powered by your 3S 1300-2200mAh flight battery. They can be programmed to display 100+ different color, sequence, and timing combinations using the built-in controller for incredible visibility and easy orientation when turned on for flying at dusk or at night. The durable, composite-reinforced EPO airframe has been kept as light as possible to deliver long flight times up to 15-30+ minutes with or without power due to the efficient brushless motor and folding prop. You can enjoy soaring and sport flying in the same flight, or climb to find thermals multiple times between battery changes — aided by the proven aerodynamics of the efficient airfoil and the gracefully curved polyhedral wing. The BNF Basic version features exclusive AS3X technology for smoother performance in windy and high lift conditions, plus optional-use SAFE Select technology for even easier launches, flying and landings. It all adds up to make the E-flite Night Radian 2.0m the perfect "next step" after a trainer, an ideal first glider, or an outstanding everyday sport model for a wide variety of pilots interested in flying day and night! Features * LED controller is powered via the battery's balance connector, so a battery with a balance connector is required to operate the lighting. LEDs will currently not work with Spektrum G2 batteries. In The Box Needed to Complete The E-flite Night Radian 2.0m motor glider shines at soaring day or night with its integrated high-visibility LED lights. Now new updates and upgrades, including Smart technology, telemetry capabilities and a modern trim scheme, make it even better! The Night Radian 2.0m is equipped with exclusive Spektrum AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying an even larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch! And if you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, simply bind the receiver normally and only AS3X will be active. Embedded throughout the airframe are factory-installed LED lights that provide incredible visibility and easy orientation when flying at night. The multi-colored light strings connect to a built-in controller that offers 100+ different color, sequence and timing combinations, and are conveniently powered by the 3S 1300-2200mAh flight battery *. You can even use the on-board switch to turn them off when flying in daylight. * LED controller is powered via the battery's balance connector, so a battery with a balance connector is required to operate the lighting. LEDs will currently not work with Spektrum G2 batteries. The efficient, factory-installed power system features a 30-amp telemetry-capable ESC with brake, a powerful brushless outrunner motor and a folding two-blade propeller that delivers incredible climb performance and long flight times on everything from a compact 3S 1300mAh up to a 3S 2200mAh LiPo battery. The Night Radian 2.0m is equipped with an ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system related telemetry data including motor RPM, current, overall battery voltage and more via compatible Smart receivers (including the AR631 installed in the BNF Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6, 8 and 10, the iX12, iX20 and others) while you fly. No glue is required for final assembly and the Night Radian 2.0m can be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery! The two-piece, bolt-on wing featuring a carbon fiber wing tube makes field assembly/disassembly, plus transportation and storage, easy and convenient. Construction with composite-reinforced, molded EPO material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe that's easy to maintain and offers the best flight experience possible. ADVANCING ELECTRIC FLIGHT E-flite aircraft are developed by experts who love electric power and flying as much as you. They know the kind of quality and performance you desire most and combine exacting standards in design with the best materials to build state-of-the-art aircraft – from top-of-the-line trainers to a wide range of sport and scale models.

  • Terrific
This Aircraft is ever so simple to assemble and get into the air. I am an experienced Large Sailplane PILOT and find this little RC model has the same characteristics. Should be very easy for a lpw time RC pilot to fly safely. It soars well, but be careful of high speed acro as the design cannot take heavy G Loads. Loops should be done with min power. ... show more

  • Great Glider
My favorite glider. Good for beginners, but can be a little slow and boring if you're used to flying warbirds or EDFs. The lights it looks amazing at dusk and to cut the engine and woosh by, low to the ground - there's no better sound. I had the previous Flite Test version, and it was great as well.

  • The lights don't work.
Advertised to have lights, but they have never worked. Replaced multiple switches and it still won't work. Disappointed.

  • Was previously returned.
The plane was clearly returned previously and not packaged well. The factory applied decals and tape over the led lights are far from perfect. They are not straight, have wrinkles and bubbles, and are peeling off in some areas.

  • Overall good new pilot experience
I sucessfully flew it with the kids for the first time but as a newbe, it was a small project to get here. I came into this with an expectation of easy to find information about a technical hobby. I was about 50% correct. It was actually a little hard to know specifically what to buy to support the glider. It would have helped me to download the operating manual but even then, it's really technical for someone that doesn't already understand how it all works together. That being said, I figured it out. Putting the glider together, I had to sand the wings a little so they would fit. I abandoned the provided stabilizer tape for a better tape solution that ensured the tail wouldn't move. I'm using a 2200 50C LiPo and it gave it a 2 3/4 inch CG vice the target of 3 inches so I found a perfect washer to tape to the tail. Without local help, I'm really happy I practiced flying it on the RF sim with VR and the controller dongle. The nose was heavy on the first flight but I proudly didn't crash. An adjustment to extend the elevator rod fixed that issue. After that super smooth and stable! Kids flew great. Oh, it glides great so expect super long approaches. ... show more

  • Simple, Ultra Performing Glider that is great for any skill level
This craft flies FOREVER on it's battery. It climbs like a predator and it irritates Turkey Vultures seeking the same thermals. Fun to fly, in fact it will thermal ride out of sight in short order! Tough (so far), colorful and super fun!
