The most powerful, capable and fun to fly Conscendo® yet!
THE ULTIMATE CONSCENDO®
When the Conscendo® was first introduced it was geared towards RC newcomers who wanted to teach themselves how to fly with a powered glider. A few years later an “Advanced” version that offered more power for soaring, sport flying and aerobatics became a favorite of many intermediate and experienced pilots alike. Now the E-flite® Conscendo Evolution 1.5m evolves the design to be the most powerful, capable and fun to fly Conscendo yet! A stronger and stiffer airframe molded from higher density EPO combines with the more powerful 3S and 4S compatible power system featuring a telemetry-capable ESC to deliver higher speeds and more aerobatic performance - while offering the same smooth sport flying and soaring capabilities the Conscendo has always been known for.
PERFORMANCE FOR EVERY PILOT:
This is the most powerful, capable, and fun to fly Conscendo® yet! With the benefits of E-flite® engineering expertise, the Conscendo Evolution 1.5m powered glider is now better equipped to deliver higher speeds and even higher energy aerobatic performance - yet it’s still as easy and fun to sport fly and soar as ever before. With a 3S LiPo battery, the factory-installed brushless power system - featuring a 30-amp telemetry-capable ESC, specially-tuned outrunner motor and folding prop - delivers plenty of thrust for fast climbs to soaring altitude, sport flying and aerobatics. Using a 4S battery, it delivers even more speed and thrust for unlimited vertical performance without the need for modifications or upgrades. The new higher density EPO airframe has the additional strength and stiffness to handle anything an intermediate to experienced pilot will want to do with all that power, performance and full 4-channel control. Yet the Conscendo Evolution is still easy to launch, fly and land - especially the BNF® Basic version equipped with a Spektrum™ AR637TA receiver featuring exclusive AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies - which makes it the perfect choice for a first powered glider. Flight ready in less time than it takes to charge a battery, the Conscendo Evolution offers a wide range of pilots a unique flying experience that no other model can provide.
More Capable:
Construction with higher density EPO results in a stronger and stiffer airframe with a smoother finish. Combined with carbon and other composite reinforcement in the fuselage, wings and tails, the Conscendo® Evolution can handle higher speeds and higher energy aerobatics - yet is still lightweight to deliver excellent soaring and sport flying performance, plus long flight times up to 15-20+ minutes with a mix of power on and power off flying.
More Power:
The factory-installed brushless power system features a 30-amp telemetry-capable ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and folding prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or more speed and unlimited vertical performance with a 4S battery without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
Telemetry Capable:
The Conscendo® Evolution 1.5m is equipped with an ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system related telemetry data including motor RPM, current, battery voltage and more via compatible receivers (including the AR637TA installed in the BNF® Basic version) and Spektrum™ AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, iX12, iX20 and others) while you fly.
Easy Assembly:
No glue is required for final assembly. You can have the Conscendo® Evolution ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery. It’s also easy to install and remove the two-piece wing and stabs for convenient storage and transport.
Bind-N-Fly® Completion Level Advantage:
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly® (BNF®) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly!
Plug-N-Play® Completion Level:
This Plug-N-Play® (PNP) version comes out of the box with a factory-installed power system and servos that are ready to connect to the compatible receiver of your choice (sold separately), plus the transmitter and battery you provide (also sold separately). Simply install the receiver, finish any final assembly, and fly!

Hi Horizon, it appears the web page for this aircraft isn't working

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

@@wdog103 Yes, and our many apologies for that! Our web team is working on it now, but in the meantime the page for the BNF Basic version is working in case you'd like to pre-order one of those (the marketing content just isn't showing yet): www.horizonhobby.com/product/conscendo-evolution-1.5m-bnf-basic-with-safe-select/EFL01650.html

Please do more jets in the future

[@lextek595]

Happy to see the Conscendo back in the line up. Love my Conscendo S. This is definitely on my list. More gliders....

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Cool the old one flew great I’m sure this will be a lot of fun nice to see the wing is well built with some of those maneuvers

[@FlyingMonkeyrc]

I turned my original consendo into a 100 mph best with a huge motor and reinforcements.

[@archivist17]

Everyone: Horizon: Here, have an even better Conscendo!!! OMG I will have to be a very good boy if I want Santa to deliver one.

[@AndrewFlyGuy]

Looks like a winner! I didn't expect to enjoy the music as much as I did :)

[@jeffhenderson934]

This plane was a game changer for me. There was a rush to get to jets and bigger and faster Warbirds. I okay and I could fly anything in level circles and do half loops and roll out. My rolls were awful, I’d never try flying inverted. The Evolution changed all that. This plane is so steady and gives you the ability & time to recover. Without question the MOST ENJOYABLE plane I’ve owned in my 5 year RC career. The only thing I haven’t done with it is glide and soar. It’s just too much fun fly it fast and work on stunts. If you’re older, or have bad eyesight you might want to add some decals, bright tape or paint. If it’s a bright day it is hard to see. I love this plane. Setup is simple, flying is stress-free, flight times are long and even landing it is simple.

[@jeromyh8096]

I can’t believe they let you guys fly at Allerton. That’s awesome.

[@JeffsCustomRC]

Looks super rigid...love the speed as well!! Great job Eflite and Horizon, another home run!!! 👊🏼👊🏼🔥🔥💥

[@yodecaf]

I love this plane more then any other! Maybe I'm in the minority, but maybe you could male a 1.1 version with flaps? Alwsys looking for the park flyer version of this

[@marcfellis7508]

loved my first one but low fast pass across runway when a person decide to walk across it with out saying any thing {poor plane in pieces now} But have its replacement on the way now

[@GBLynden]

It looks fast and fun, but I would have preferred a different wing design for transport.

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

The wing is two-piece and is easy to install/remove with 4 screws for convenient storage/transport (just like it was on the previous Conscendo models).

[@nicos1097]

I know you guys are about to release the umx f-35 right? 😁

[@gianluca387]

Hi, when will the new version of this model be released? And if you confirm when its arrival in Europe is expected? Thanks for the reply.

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

There is no new version planned for this 1.5m span model, but we did recently release a smaller UMX (Ultra Micro eXtreme) version and both should be available in Europe now: www.horizonhobby.de/de_DE/search?q=Conscendo&prefn1=completionLevel&prefv1=Bind-N-Fly+Basic%7CPlug-N-Play&srule=best-matches&sz=24

when is draco 2m comming out?????????????????

[@Adamhc75]

@HorizinHobbyProducts At 3:10 you mentioned and showed a Full Telemetry capable Smart ESC... Does that mean that it comes with the ESC with the Data wire? I have the Blade 330S and the Smart ESC does not have the data wire on the battery connector. To get the full Smart telemetry data shown at 3:13 I had to replace the ESC with a new boxed Smart ESC that has the small data wire in between the power wires from the Hobby shop. I thought that was somewhat ridiculous to have to do that. I guess Horizon Hobby wants to save a penny where they can...

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Jason shows/talks about this in the Flight Talk ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqfPgKWoq7iMa9U ) and Overview ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6rYc5ePjbeGg6M ) videos. The E-flite telemetry-capable ESC installed in the Concsendo Evolution is not a "full" Smart ESC so it does not have the third wire that's compatible with Smart batteries to provide individual cell voltage, battery temp, etc. data the way Spektrum Avian Smart ESCs can. However, it still provides overall battery voltage, current, motor RPM and ESC temps via compatible Spektrum Smart receivers...including the AR637TA that's installed in the BNF Basic version. The corresponding telemetry screens on the transmitter will show "Smart" at the top of them because the data is coming through a Smart receiver, but again, you will not have the additional Smart battery data an Avian Smart ESC can also provide when used with Smart batteries.

[@Adamhc75]

@@HorizonHobbyProducts thank-you so much for responding to my comment. This aircraft looks absolutely AWESOME!!

[@wes230]

where was this video shot? thanks

[@DaJa14]

Kann man as3x und safe irgendwie abschalten sonst super flieger

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

Will the new BNF Evolution bind and work right using the transmitter from he origanal Conscendo S RTF?

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Yes! However, we do recommend using the new DXS or any of the current Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (DX6e and 8e, DX6 Gen 2/3, DX8 Gen 2, DX9, iX12 or iX20) to take full advantage of the telemetry capabilities if you purchase the BNF Basic version.

[@jeptj5442]

SAD my first one is a pile of foam waiting on it to be back in stock for my 2nd one lol { ppl should not walk across a run way while ppl are flying }

[@aenima3174]

How does this stack up to the Night Radian as a glider i.e. flight time, catching thermals and generally staying up without power?

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

The Night Radian has more wing area and lighter cubic/wing loading so it will be somewhat better at catching thermals, especially in less active areas/air. The Night Radian is definitely more of a traditional "thermal" glider platform while the Conscendo Evolution is more of a blend between a motor glider and a sport airplane...a sport motor glider if you will :) That said, the Conscendo Evolution is still very capable of catching thermals, and it is not uncommon to achieve 15-20+ minute flight times with a mix of power on/off flying, or 30-60+ minutes if you catch some thermals!

[@aenima3174]

HorizonHobbyProducts Thanks! Conscendo Evolution it is. Or both... :)

[@gavstreet8976]

More jets please

[@SngGenius]

Damn why now?I bought the advanced last week!

[@snowsolo]

Lol. You're still good with the advanced conscendo. Just look at it as a little more peaceful flyer because it's only 3s. I bought the advanced model late last summer. Still a hall of fame Eflite plane in my opinion. Now if they made it a Night Conscendo Evolution with flaps and lights on 4s I would say you got hosed just now.

[@_Amilio_]

I wants it!

[@LifeofBrian2]

Stonger Airframe? Perfect, but it needs somthing to land on point...it needs flaps for crow & camber...my old 2S glides forever...forever!!!...bushes and trees are my best friend to land it fast...or i catch it...stronger airframe? Hmmm...i think ill get it....again... but next version please.....FLAPS for crow & camber...PLEASE...

[@DeltaAssualt]

Still want a version with flaps but also would be cool to have a swappable bigger wing with flaps to use as a thermal rider/floater.

[@pstarxxx78]

Hey HORIZON can you “evolution” up some flaps on this amazing gilder? Ppl been doing this mod long enough that I feel horizon should take notice and include it. Or make 2 models with and with out for those who don’t want them.

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

It definitely doesn't need them, and the vast majority of people enjoy it without them, but you can easily program them using flaperons or add them with mods if you want them :)

[@pstarxxx78]

@@HorizonHobbyProducts seeing i have you on the line. When I order the timber 1.5. Can I set up the reverse with and a DX8 gen 1? Is there a set up video?
