DHC-6 Twin Otter Nature Air 1870mm (73.6") Wingspan - ARF from Nexa - NXA1004-002
The De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, currently marketed as the Viking Air DHC-6 Twin Otter, is a Canadian 19-passenger STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) utility aircraft developed by de Havilland Canada and currently produced by Viking Air. The aircraft’s fixed tricycle undercarriage, STOL abilities, and high rate of climb have made it a successful cargo, regional passenger airliner and Medevac aircraft. In addition, the Twin Otter has been popular with commercial skydiving operations, and is used by the United States Army Parachute Team and the United States Air Force’s 98th Flying Training Squadron.
The Nexa DHC-6 Twin Otter is a .25 size electric scale series civilian utility aircraft with a 1870mm wingspan, constructed primarily from balsa wood and covered in a tropical Nature Air livery. This ARF requires assembly and installation of your choice of servos and power system, and includes two piece wing with aluminum wing joiner, fiberglass cowl and spinner. A large battery tray provides ample space for any size battery you require. An optional float set is available for snow or water-based operations (not included).

I am looking forward to putting her on floats this spring. Definately need an easier wing bolt mount as it is a pain to fit my big meat fists through that opening. I ended up drilling and tapping the wing tube and used 8-32 nylon screws, works perfect. Motors were the recommended with MAS 11x7x3 props. Used the ME262 ESCs and Futaba servos all around, even the micros. Thank you Motion for carrying this beautiful plane!
