The Differences Between Brushed and Brushless Parts

FMS has always dedicated its engineering efforts towards making aircraft suitable for every skill level. The SuperEZ has always been a perfect beginner-friendly sport aircraft.
Using a large, high-winged design constructed out of lightweight EPO foam, the SuperEZ has an ultra-low wing loading and stable flight characteristics- giving beginner pilots great handling even at slow speeds. An improved brushless power system and propeller gives the aircraft ample power while still maintaining 10-15 minute flight times. A high strength, lightweight metal landing gear set absorbs even the hardest landings.
For easy transportation, the SuperEZ is designed with a quick-release mechanism that can release the wing in a matter of seconds.

Building on the success of the SuperEZ V2, the V3 features an improved one-piece horizontal stabilizer and a nose-cone that significantly reduces vibrations.
Built upon the successful Super EZ V3, FMS has completely upgraded the digital 9g servos to ensure pinpoint precision and bulletproof reliability. The addition of attractive purple accents to the color scheme make the Super EZ V4 a head-turner at every field!
Like the SuperEZ V2 and V3, the V4 can be installed with floats! Allowing for water and snow operations
As one of FMS’ mainline products, the SuperEZ V4 utilizes the latest in FMS’ design language. It will grow with the pilot as they progress into more sophisticated flight maneuvers.

Classic Reborn: FMS 800mm Beaver

In the long river of aviation development, the DHC-2 "Beaver" designed by de Havilland Canada stands as a unique and dazzling star.

The Beaver was originally designed to meet the need for transporting small groups of people and cargo in wilderness areas. At the time, Canada's vast and complex terrain—with its expansive wild forests, mountain ranges, and a web of rivers and lakes—urgently required an aircraft capable of operating in harsh environments. In 1946, based on market research and feedback from pilots, de Havilland Canada decided to develop a rugged, multi-purpose aircraft that could take off and land in harsh conditions. Through market studies, they gathered pilots' requirements for the new aircraft's performance. Pilots universally desired a powerful plane with exceptional Short Take-Off and Landing (STOL) capabilities, adaptable to wheeled, skid, or float. Even though engineers warned that such a design would compromise cruise performance, pilots believed that as long as it was faster than dog sleds and could deliver heavy cargo to remote areas, it would succeed!

Once launched, the Beaver became one of the most legendary bush planes of the 20th century, symbolizing wilderness exploration with its outstanding STOL abilities and reliability. Primarily used as a bush plane, it served various purposes: transporting goods and passengers, aerial work (including crop spraying and aerial fertilization), and civil aviation tasks.

FMS has recreated this classic model with an 800mm wingspan, perfectly balancing portability and flight performance. What are you waiting for? Assemble up and start your adventure!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the PNP version include the gyro feature?

A: The PNP version is not equipped with gyro functionality. This feature is provided exclusively with the RTF version, which incorporates a 3-in-1 receiver unit (RX, gyro, 12A ESC).

Q: What do the gyro actually do in the RTF version?

A: A gyro acts like an invisible co-pilot, continuously correcting for turbulence and unintended pitch, roll, or yaw so the plane stays level and predictable, even when you let go of the sticks.

Q: How can the PNP version obtain gyro-stabilized flight performance?

A: The PNP airframe is supplied without a gyro; however, stability can be added by installing the Reflex V3 flight controller (available separately). The unit offers three pilot-selectable modes—Stabilized, Optimized, and Manual—to make every flight smoother and safer.

1:12 TOYOTA FJ45 Pickup Truck

To create this officially licensed RC version of the TOYOTA FJ45, FMS super-finely restores the real car, and the degree of restoration is no less than that of the static model.

The hood hinge is the same living hinge as the real car, and it looks slim and beautiful on the 1/12 model car. The motor, steering servo and 2-in-1 integrated ESC / receiver are all hidden under the hood, and the battery is also here, for easy installation. The doors on both sides can be opened, the front windshield can be folded forward, if the roof is removed at the same time, it can be transformed into a convertible shape. If the screws on the slender hinges of the doors are removed, the doors can be removed, showing a more simple and wild performance. At this time, the cockpit is more transparent, the steering linkage action of steering wheel can be seen at a glance, and it is also more convenient to carry 1/12 flexible figures.

The two-speed gearbox provides powerful torque. Metal gears carry power, with bearings all over the whole vehicle, allow it moving forward slowly even if it is fully loaded with gravel. The TOYOTA logo on the rear of the car restores the stereoscopic stamping effect of the steel plate of the real car. The tailgate can be opened to load extra-long "cargo". There are two sets of taillights on the left and right of the tailgate, each set includes a turn signal, a brake light, and a reversing light. With the input of the light control button on the transmitter, the linkage effect is consistent with the driving action. The front headlights have linkage effect of far and near beam and turn signal.
