Beta 1400 ARF version RED, wingspan 1400mm, beginner model

BETA 1400 is constructed from highly resistant, extruded polyolefin foam (EPO) and is powered by a brushless motor. Thanks to the motor being placed on the pylon behind the wing, the model is very resistant to rough handling and can even withstand nose-first landings, which would damage the propeller on classic models with the motor in the nose of the fuselage.

The fuselage with the pylon behind the wing is prepared for mounting a brushless outrunner motor. The fuselage is made of EPO foam. The pushrods with wire linkages for controlling the rudder and elevator are already glued in. The servo bays are prepared. The canopy is removable with a magnetic closure. The two-part wing is also made of EPO foam. The ailerons are controlled by 2 servos, which are actuated in the wing by short direct wire linkages.
The wing halves are connected with a carbon fiber tube connector and secured with a screw on the underside of the wing. The tailplane in the classic arrangement is also made of EPO foam and is controlled by pushrods. The motor is cooled by the airflow that flows through the pylon and motor openings. Ailerons, rudder, elevator and motor speed are controlled.

To control the model, you need at least a 4-channel RC set. In this case, both aileron servos are connected to one channel with a Y-cable.
When connecting the receiver, follow the operating instructions of your RC set. It is ideal to use at least a 5-channel computer RC set. This allows the aileron servos to be controlled independently. In this case, you can set the differential of the aileron deflections. For beginners, we recommend 50% - i.e. the downward deflection of the aileron is limited to 50% of the upward deflection.
To facilitate landing, it is advantageous to mix the ailerons as aerodynamic brakes (tilt them upwards). You will appreciate this on smaller landing areas and especially when flying on slopes.
When setting the aerodynamic brakes, make sure that when the ailerons are fully deflected upwards in the braking function, the possibility of their full upward deflection in the aileron function is also maintained.

BETA 1400 is suitable for flight beginners - we always recommend - making the first flights under the supervision of an experienced pilot to enjoy a relaxing time with model flying.
The flight characteristics are pleasant. The model familiarizes you with control around all three axes as well as with correct coordinated control with rudder, elevator and ailerons. This experience is useful when you start flying with your first aerobatic model or semi-/scale model.
By changing the length ratios of the servo and control horns, you can adjust the control throws. The flight beginner starts with small deflections. The experienced pilot sets large deflections, which also allow for a bit of aerobatics - loops, barrel rolls and turns are very well managed by BETA!
BETA 1400 can also utilize weak thermals and stay in the sky for a very long time.
