While America geared up to go higher and faster, B.D. Maule was hard at work in a quiet country corner developing his vision of an aircraft that would give pilots the ability to do the exact opposite—practically. Maule Air Inc. has flourished ever since by delivering planes around the globe with renowned STOL capability and value. The E-flite® Maule M-7 1.5m park flyer is an officially licensed tribute to the full-size marvel that includes an abundance of scale detail, rugged landing gear, flaps and an optional-use float set so you can conquer any terrain year-round.
The E-flite® Maule M-7 1.5m captures the Short Take Off and Landing (STOL) capabilities, along with the unmistakable lines and character of the rugged full-scale design series. From the crystal-clear cabin windows and interior detail to an abundance of exterior features including LED lights, antennas, vortex generators and riveted panels, the Maule breaks new ground in park flyer-size civilian scale authenticity. EPO construction results in a lightweight yet durable airframe. The two-piece wing is equipped with operational flaps for outstanding slow flight performance and STOL capabilities. The factory-installed 3S and 4S compatible brushless power system delivers plenty of performance for flying from smooth or rough surfaces using the oversized wheels, or when flying from water using the included float set.
AS3X Receiver with Optional SAFE Select TechnologyThis Bind-N-Fly® Basic model features a Spektrum receiver integrated with AS3X® (Artificial Stabilization – 3-aXis) technology to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence for the remarkable sense of stability and precision larger, expertly tuned aircraft enjoy.
If this is your first scale model or would like an extra margin of safety while getting familiar with the airplane, optional SAFE® Select flight protection can be enabled. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual.
With SAFE Select features enabled, you get:
Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
- These keep the aircraft from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles during takeoff and landing.
Automatic Self-Leveling
- Instantly returns the wings to level when the sticks are released.
Easy Switch Assignment-No Programming Required
- 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.

As an officially licensed replica, this scale model features clear windows and interior detail including a pilot figure, plus complements to the scale outline including antennas, molded panel lines, rivets, vortex generators and functional LED lights.
Convenient AccessYou get direct access through a front top-hatch that makes flight battery changes simple and convenient when using a 3–4S LiPo pack from 2200–3200mAh. A concealed hatch in the bottom offers easy access to the receiver resulting in a scale appearance that’s more authentic.
Versatile Brushless PowerThe factory-installed power system features a high-power brushless outrunner motor and ESC that’s versatile enough to run either a 3S or 4S LiPo battery (sold separately). Either way, you enjoy thrust that hauls this Maule into the air with ease.
Easy to AssembleNo glue is required to complete assembly. The wing features a two-piece, plug-in design with folding struts that makes transport and storage convenient. The horizontal stabs slide into place and are secured with screws so assembly is quick and easy.
Functional FlapsLike the full-size counterpart, the factory-installed flaps provide aerodynamic braking when deflected and increase lift substantially for stable slow-speed flight and remarkable STOL performance.
Floats IncludedThe included float set features a water rudder for superb steering control. The custom strut package ensures accurate alignment so that setup to fly from water is a breeze.

Reviews
E-Flite Maule... I've just assembled mine, which came today, so this is NOT a full review. My immediate concerns are... the wings aren't straight, the left wing must be 4-6 mm high at midpoint, the right wing is a little better but curves in the OTHER direction. Neither wing is straight, but they don't appear twisted. It seems to me that this is very poor quality control, although the AS3X might minimise its effects. Unless it is transported assembled EACH wing requires 3 plugs and three small and easily misplaced 3mm x 16mm hex-drive bolts and this seems like a MAJOR backwards step. Even the Timber has a more user friendly wing attachment. The fuselage seems very tidy. Assembly was extremely easy and seemed very well designed. I agree with a comment that I saw that the pilot is a little small, which is a shame. The spinner is a little bit cheapo, I'll probably end up replacing that VERY soon. In some ways it's absolutely brilliant but an aircraft is only ever as good as its wings.
