FMS Beaver 2000m
The new, giant FMS Beaver 2000mm combines stunning beauty and realism with upgrades, updated technology, and new features. The largest propeller aircraft offered in the FMS line is a giant scale gem that offers incredible value.
Not only does it look fantastic, the Beaver performs superbly. The thrust force can reach more than 5000g, the flying weight is only 3800g. With a classic, elegant black and yellow trim scheme, the Beaver combines breath-taking visuals with its impressive performance specs. Capable of leisurely low and mid-speed flight, this model still maintains surprising aerobatic qualities.
Easier than ever.
With the latest multi-connect technology, FMS has streamlined the wiring system, making it easier to install and eliminating wiring problems. Easier plane transport is facilitated by the new connectors that allow pilots to remove and replace wings with just one step. All channels on each wing are brought together in one port. The customers can install the main wing set simply by inserting the port and then securing with four screws.
Night Flyer.
To make flying the Beaver more fun at night, there are 5 LED lights. Light up the night with LEDs located in front of the main wing set and at the rear of the fuselage.
Scale detail.
The aileron and flap are to scale. The latest EPO52 foam material as well as the hollow main wing greatly alleviates the airplane weight.
Upgradable.
Electric retracts and floats are available to add to the package. These retracts will make your model ready to tow banners and gliders. With optional floats, the Beaver’s high-powered motor is ready to be put to the test of a water take off.

History
The DHC-2 Beaver is a general purpose bush plane developed by de Havilland Canada. Though originally used for cargo/passenger hauling and crop dusting, it was also adopted by the United States Armed Forces as a utility aircraft and search and rescue unit. The single-engine, high-wing, propeller-driven STOL aircraft appeared in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars and was popular among front line men. When production finally ceased in 1967, only 1,657 DHC-2 Beavers had been built.

I was able to easily assemble the model. Fit of the flying surfaces was absolutely perfect. Everything is neatly assembled, and of high quality.
Aileron set up was a bit strange. Seemed backwards. reversed aileron channel in radio, and had better results.
Overall I love the looks of this foamy. No, it isn't scale, and it does not promise to be. But it's close enough. I can't wait to take it out for it's maiden.
Fix the Manual and get the hardware package right, and this would have recieved 5 stars.

Cons: Manual has some discrepancies on the screw sizes noted do not match the inventory descriptions. Not enough of the black screws; too many silver screw - had to use one silver screw to mount LG legs which are black. Foam-filled tires are too hard, and tend to bounce badly. Rubber air filled tires would do much better.
Overall: This is a well put together near giant scale foamy. And the best bang for the buck. I recommend this model for those wanting to fly something a bit bigger that the park flyers. A great intro towards giant scale. Get the manual fixed, and the screw set correct, and this is an all around 5 stars.
The Skis is not suitable for the 2000mm Beaver.
The floats has two version. You need to find the spot to cut the foam in the previous version. If your float is the new version, you just cut according to the cover.It is recommended to fix the cover with silica gel after replacing the servo, and be waterproof.
We've not received any issue of the problem of the black paint. We've tested the plane under circumstances of different temperature.
