PLEASE SEE ITEM #EFL49500 AS A REPLACEMENT
The E-flite Valiant 1.3m BNF Basic (part no. EFL4950) brings the easy-going stability of a classic high-wing design together with modern, sporty performance. Inspired by the Hangar 9 Valiant 30cc, this park flyer arrives with a factory-installed Spektrum AS3X receiver featuring optional SAFE Select, plus a powerful brushless power system and functional flaps for confident circuits, touch-and-goes and relaxed aerobatics.
With light wing loading, a 480-size brushless outrunner and a 30A ESC, the Valiant delivers a wide flight envelope. The spacious battery bay accepts 3S LiPos from 1300–3000mAh, while durable Z-Foam construction and aluminium landing gear with wheel pants help it handle everyday flying. An optional float set is available separately for take-offs from water.
AS3X technology works in the background to smooth turbulence and sharpen handling. Newer pilots can enable SAFE Select during binding to add self-levelling and bank/pitch limits, or fly with standard AS3X only by binding normally.

The Valiant 1.3m park flyer is a downsized version of the big Hangar 9 Valiant 30cc ARF. Like its giant-scale sibling, it has the inherent stability of a classic high-wing model but with more modern lines and larger control surfaces that can provide sporty response when you want it. This Bind-N-Fly® version comes with the added benefit of a Spektrum™ AS3X receiver that features optional SAFE Select technology.
Versatile Performance and Functional Flaps
Some days you just want to unwind with some touch and gos. Others, you want to push the limits with aerobatics. The model's light wing loading, functional flaps and powerful brushless motor give you a big performance envelope to play with so, mild or wild, you can do it all.
High-Output Brushless Power System
The high-output power system delivers thrilling performance when matched with a 2200mAh 3S 11.1V 30C LiPo battery. You can use a wide variety of other 3S battery sizes too. The big, easy-to-access battery compartment can accommodate everything from 1300mAh to 3000mAh packs.
Optional Float Set Available Separately
The model is designed to accept an optional float set. Installation takes just a few minutes and all the necessary hardware is included.
AS3X Receiver with Optional SAFE Select Technology
The model's AS3X (Artificial Stabilization - 3-aXis) receiver works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence. The result is a sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you're flying an expertly tuned aircraft.
If you're a relatively new pilot or want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional SAFE Select technology built into the receiver. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual.
With SAFE Select features enabled, you get:
- These keep the aircraft from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles during takeoff and landing.
- Instantly returns the wings to level when the sticks are released.
- The simple procedure for assigning a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any programming and takes just a few seconds.
Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
Automatic Self-Leveling
Easy Switch Assignment - No Programming Required
If you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, just bind the receiver normally and it will function like a standard AS3X receiver. You can even fine-tune its AS3X settings if you have the Spektrum programming interface and a compatible programming cable (both available separately).
