More info

The PA-18 Super Cub is a two-seat, single-engine high-wing aircraft. It was developed from the PA-11 and inherits the excellent design of the J-3. Over nearly 40 years of continuous production, more than 9,000 PA-18s have been manufactured. Today, the PA-18 is widely used for bush flying, banner towing, and glider towing.


The FMS 1700mm PA-18 and 1300mm PA-18 were launched in 2019 and 2022. Their stable, easy-to-fly characteristics have brought great surprise to both new and experienced pilots. The different sizes meet the flying needs of various players in diverse environments. While this training aircraft has received widespread acclaim, FMS continues to focus on size and beginner-friendly design. This time, FMS introduces the smaller, more affordable, and more beginner-friendly 500mm PA-18!


In terms of functionality, the 500mm PA-18 retains the low-speed handling and short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities of its predecessors, while also incorporating propeller protection to prevent propeller damage; it features a one-button return-to-home function, making it even more beginner-friendly.


Moreover, thanks to the compact size of the 500mm PA-18, it can fly almost anywhere you can imagine, including basketball courts, parks, and even your backyard! The RTF configuration includes a 3-mode gyro (full-stabilizing, manual control, and optimized stabilization). The aircraft requires no assembly—just connect the battery, and you can start flying right away!


If you have already purchased the FMS 1700mm or 1300mm PA-18, we are truly honored. If you are a beginner, why not start your RC journey with this PA-18? If you are an experienced pilot looking to fly anywhere at any ti[ne, you should also give the 500mm PA-18 a try. We believe you can fully unleash its performance in your hands.

WARNING! 

The transmitter is delivered in “Mode 2,” i.e., with the throttle on the left stick. It is possible to switch the sticks to Mode 1, i.e., with the throttle on the right stick. Instructions on how to do this are provided in the manual.

    Heading Hold Return for Beginners

    After activating the return function before takeoff. When the aircraft is over 20 meters away, flip the return switch and it will automatically turn and fly back. You can regain control at any time. It’s simple and beginner-friendly.

    Push Button Stunt Capability

    At an altitude of at least 20 meters in full stabilization mode, press the stunt button and move the right stick—pull the elevator stick to perform a loop, or push the aileron stick left or right to perform a roll. The plane automatically recovers after each stunt for a safe and exciting flight.

    Powerful and Precise Control

    Equipped with an upgraded 2.4GHz radio system and a high-torque 1020 coreless motor, the aircraft delivers stable, consistent power for precise control and smooth aerobatic performance.

    Easy Takeoff with STOL Capability

    Supports short takeoff and landing. Easily take off from the ground or you can also hand launch it. It’s a great choice for beginners.

    Propeller Auto-Release Protection

    The propeller detaches on impact to reduce damage. Just snap it back into place and keep flying.

    Ready to Fly with 3 Flight Modes

    Fully assembled and ready to fly right out of the box, it features a 3-mode gyro system—full stabilization, optimized stabilization, and manual control—offering the right level of support for every skill level.

    Durable and Lightweight EPP Foam

    Made from crash-resistant EPP foam that’s lightweight, strong, and beginner-friendly. Finished in bold red with extra blue decals so you can customize its look.
