I think this has been Horizon's best year! 7 years ago when I got into this hobby I bought everything from Horizon, but as I progressed and wanted to get into jets, I found that Horizon just didn't have what I was looking for. This past year with all the jets, and now this new model! I'm buying everything from Horizon again! This company is a game changer!!
*That Beast is bad arse!* I'm going to pre order two of these bad boys one for bashing one to install inav and do some fpv. Horizons straight killing it! Another one to add to my hangar! Now get back to work with Mike Patey and the 2.1 m Draco, turbulence and hopefully the new Scrappy carbon cub! Just let me know where you want me to mail my wallet and credit cards to? Rob
@@HorizonHobbyProducts Lets just make everything fly like an extra. How about chuck some gyros on every surface so you don't even need to know how to fly. Can you please release a 3d capable scale Fokker Triplane. Thanks
Nice Plane, always loved the 'C-130' - Use to fly over my dorm in Marietta, Georiga - I was able to take a dirt field landing in the 'desert' once or twice too :) _ Basil
I was just writing about this plane should come with a back door and a parachute.. something.. and flaps floats.. and maybe an extra propeller with the airplane.. because you know I love landing on concrete with my timbers.. I'm working on prop number 5...ok I'm quite sensitive about this...lmao... This company does not point disappoint..
Perfect! A military twin I can fly strictly scale maneuvers, or knock around the sky for pure enjoyment, not really having to worry about a flight mistake resulting in an explosion of balsa, plywood and monokote! What’s more - it comes with skis, so I can still fly a twin in the winter! Perfect!
Better late than never. Have always had a few Twin Stars and MTDs in my fleet over the years so will pick up one of then. Cudos for doing counter rotating props and getting them the correct direction! This really looks like it flys similar to my Twin* on wheels.
Nicely presented and filmed. Loved the scale vehicles around the aircraft. Send one over here & we can try the ski operation.... it’s cold enough with snow in the mountains lol. Great aircraft. well done HH
Hey Jason, It’s nice that Horizon continues to introduce new aircraft to the market, but what makes a plane like the EC-1500 desirable are scale details! Clear windows, retracts, etc...this plane looks like the V22 Osprey offered by Banana...foam and decals....look at the scale features on the Flightline B24, a good example of scale details. Not a foam mold with decals. Even Avios has stepped up with their C-130 and their latest released MiG 17. So many scale details=desirability. Small foamies do not need the detail, when you get into the larger scale foam birds detail is everything. Thanks for your work.
i wish you would make small / mid size scale ga aircraft like the beaver 25e and super cub 25e , foam planes are fun but you used to have high quality arfs , sorry you don't make them anymore e-flite.
Fantastic to see HH providing various new model types. I am sure this model will go well. I do not mean to be disrespectful but why doesn't HH release their new products when they actually have them available for fliers to buy? Maybe that is the way things are done these days? Anyhow, keep up the good work HH.
Now this is cool. Let me know if you need a real world product tester. I have a perfect dirt runway that turns into a pond in the wet season. This one looks fun 👍👍😎👍👍
RCWeaven FPV yea, but this is far better made I put money on it. C130 was made to a price like all Hobbyking junk, yet none of their "chosen reviewers" have the balls to admit because they don't want to loose their freebies......so if you believe them, Hobbyking never ever release a lemon 😂😂
@@Johnn_T Totally agree. I got the C130 from the raffle as soon as it came out. C130 has a special place for me. But this is a versatile and capable plane. They should alter this into a fat Albert.
So glad I'm single now!. I can have this plane and all the rest without guilt. Well maybe about how much I'm spending on my R.C. addiction!. Oh my!....
The livery is reminiscent US Coast Guard aircraft during the early-1960s. Some aircraft were repainted in historical liveries for CG aviation's 100th year anniversary in 2016. I don't believe any of the HC-27 Spartans were repainted in for the anniversary. It has taken about three years for CG Air Station Sacramento to get their HC-27s repainted from the DoD gray to current livery. I would have new decals printed for a more realistic CG aircraft, but would keep the basic scheme as a could-have-been HC-27 in anniversary livery. I would have decals with US Coast Guard in the proper font. Blocked and slashed font is wrong. But this is a pretty cool-looking and flying model. I'd rig up MA-1 and MA-10 survival and a dewatering pump can with chute packages to drop, as I did as a dropmaster on CG HC-130s for 18 years. I miss those days.
None of the footage in this video was shot in RealFlight, however, the EC-1500 is included in RF9 and a snippet can be seen in this video: th-cam.com/video/hVKFtGbgKFQ/w-d-xo.html
I would not have guessed it didn't have retracts. I own the C130 from HK and yeah the retracts go up and down so little it is the same in the air. Just looks good on the ground with the sequencer.

Can you please bring back this airplane? Or a version 2????

I'm disappointed that the EC-1500 is no longer available. Perhaps, they will release an updated version.

Another Amazing Aircraft from HH!
Love the twin motors!
Love to drop bay door!
Love the Coast Guard theme!
A Must have for my Hanger!
Thanks HH !
Getting my pop corn ready for all the "not scale flight" comments haha
We're ready ;).

They’ve started already - along with the anti-foamie complaints! Lol 😂 Some hobbyists are never satisfied 😂
OK then , the price is not scale...LOL
Flying Buzzard LOL!
Thanks Jason and HH for a scale cargo plane that i can 3D......LOL
Finally a twin motor plane, thanks guys
This is Epic. To boldly Go Where No Cargo Plane Has Gone Before. The Military is going to be jealous of this thing. Nice Job Horizon !!!
Spoiler Alert - the military already has them

Why did they discontinue it?
@@Ayare4 No idea! Horizon doesn’t include me in their product line discussions! Maybe it wasn’t as lucrative a product as they would’ve liked?

So many cool planes from Horizon 👏

That would be awesome to see this Beast up in the mountains in the snow doing some whiskey drop operations.
Yes indeed!!
OMG, i will be going poor. Got to have this sweet thing.
I am impressed with this release.

Ha ha. I made one order where it came from US and from overseas and got a 10 percent in each. Let them all get scared.
@@JoshWeaverRC lmao that's funny.
this looks like a great beginner plane
I just ordered the avios mig 17 where am I sposta come up with another 400 bucks you guys are killing me
Does it have the conair variant?
The parachute drop look like it might have caused some damage to the vehicle there.
Super cool plane!

Why is it that no video I have seen so far of the EC -1500 lands or takes off with the flaps down?

THANK YOU FOR HEAR MY WISHES ;-) ;-)
hey horizon bring back the 4.0 really cant belive you cut it out
No retracts, right?
Damn i'm really liking this plane but my concern is i've never flown an r/c plane only helis,drones,nitro cars,boats
Hey Jon! You should look into purchasing Real Flight 9. This is a simulator that will teach you how to fly!
Get real flight 9.5 don't make the mistake of trying to fly an rc plane without any experience.
Is it a C-27 or a transaull
They need to make a brushless, 4 channel Stratos!!!!!
Oh and make it 3s while your at it!
Can it fly on 6s has to 6s ESC don't have too many big 4S packs but have a ton of 6s packs
The power systems are 3S and 4S compatible only (6S is too much voltage).
@@HorizonHobbyProducts okay thank you yeah I thought it came with the 40 amp V2 ESC it's all good though ordered mine today
Awesome
Love ! :)
Please bring an airubs
I really wish you didn't need an almost 100 dollar battery I think that is the only downside to this Amazing aircraft.
4S aren't too bad. ebay has 3000's in the 30 to $
40 range.
Here goes another $300....... over 35 planes in the garage... maybe the wife won’t notice!
Foam wheels gotta go. Putting some bigger rubber ones on for much bette handling.... love this bird
What a Beauty !!! But high cost and no retracts disappointing
Reminds me of the De Havilland Canada dash-8 but bigger
Like it but aggressive flying made all look silly, power not a problem
YESSSSSSS FXXk Hobbyking! Now bring out a Mig 15👍
Details. Expected details.
*umx mig 15 stares in the distance*
TurtlesThatFly a PROPER sized one
TIL - horizon hobby has no idea how to make / fold a parachute. (seriously? You left those cuts in??)
