The original Timber captured the thrill of incredible Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) capabilities in a design featuring sporty flight performance and ultra-friendly handling. From low-time to very experienced pilots, nearly everyone enjoys flying the Timber–but some wish it had even more aerobatic capability. The E-flite Timber X 1.2m combines the STOL capabilities of the original model with a new wing design featuring oversized ailerons and flaps, plus an enlarged rudder and elevator and a more powerful 3S and 4S compatible power system, to also deliver 3D performance you'd expect from an all-out aerobat!
Features:
- Incredible Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) plus 3D capabilities
- Enlarged and oversized control surfaces with double-beveled hinge lines
- Six durable and factory-installed high-torque, metal-geared servos
- High-power 3S and 4S compatible brushless outrunner motor and 50-amp ESC
- Spektrum™ 6-channel receiver with industry-leading DSMX® technology
- Unmatched stability and precision of AS3X® technology for smoother flight performance
- Easy to fly with optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection
- Shock-absorbing landing gear with oversized tundra-style wheels
- Functional and factory-installed LED landing, navigation and strobe lights
- Lightweight yet durable composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction
- Optional-use leading edge slats for improved STOL and slow flight performance
- Optional EDO-style floats (EFL5261, sold separately)
In-Depth Features:
- eXtreme Maneuverability: The factory-installed brushless power system features a 50-amp ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or eXtra power and vertical performance with a 4S battery without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
- eXtra Power: The factory-installed brushless power system features a 50-amp ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or eXtra power and vertical performance with a 4S battery without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
- eXtremely Durable: Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe. The Timber X 1.2m is also equipped with high-torque, metal-geared servos plus the shock-absorbing landing gear and oversized tundra-style wheels of the original model so you can fly aggressively from almost any surface.
- STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) Capable: The wing design has a shorter span yet almost as much wing area as the original, plus it features drooped wingtips and can be equipped with the included optional-use leading edge slats for improved slow flight and STOL performance. These features, along with the lightweight design, oversized flaps and high-power brushless motor make it possible to spring into the air or float down to land in as little as two feet or less.
- LED Lights: Like the original, the Timber X 1.2m comes with realistic-looking LED landing, navigation, and strobe lights that are factory-installed and powered from the flight battery.
- Optional Floats: Owners of an original Timber 1.5m model can use the float set it came with on the Timber X 1.2m, or the EDO-style float set is available separately and includes the required mounting struts plus a dual-rudder steering system for excellent handling and easy takeoffs and landings on water.

I ordered the night timber too and it flies great, I will definitely give a 5 stars if there's not of this servo motor problem.
I do not own this plane I own a timber x which is identical to the night timber x other than not having lights throughout the plane and no smart ESC. But there is a way of making the i button on a spectrum transmitter that is called panic mode that you can put it on any spectrum receiver that has safe select which It would say safe somewhere on receiver or plane or in the manual that came with the plane. it's a lot easier in my opinion than having safe select on a switch putting it on the bind button is a lot easier just copy and paste the link in search bar and search If it doesn't work just clicking on the link thank you link below
