Commander mPd 1.4m BNF Basic (EFL14850)
Commander mPd 1.4m is a 1.4-meter wingspan sport airplane that blends timeless lines with modern performance. The updated design delivers more power and crisper handling and features Spektrum Avian Smart Lite telemetry for real-time power-system data during flight. The Bind-N-Fly Basic version includes AS3X and SAFE Select for a stable, confident flight experience and is compatible with 3S and 4S LiPo packs for a flexible performance envelope; popular 3S and 4S batteries in the 2200–3200 mAh range provide strong power and flight times.
Built for easy assembly and lasting durability, the Commander mPd 1.4m uses a lightweight composite-reinforced EPO airframe, six metal-geared servos, and flaps that widen its flight envelope. A two-piece wing with hands-free connections bolts on quickly with no glue, and the model arrives factory-finished in a vivid Aircraft Studio Design trim. The 45-amp Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC powers a tuned brushless motor for ample thrust on 3S and generous vertical performance on 4S, while AS3X offers a locked-in feel and SAFE Select provides optional self-leveling for pilots seeking extra confidence in challenging conditions.
