EXCALIBUR TIPS:
The Durafly Excalibur V2 is both an easy and impressive aircraft to fly and has no special
considerations when it comes to flying. But, do make sure you’ve followed the set-up guidelines
and recommendations in this manual thoroughly for the best flying experience.
As powered gliders go, the Excalibur V2 is in fact an extremely versatile air frame. Out of the
box you will already have an abundance of climb, maneuverability, and power on the supplied
upgraded13x8 propeller. See the Excalibur V2 really push the boundaries as an impressive hot
liner! An 1800-2200mah 4S will give flight times from 4 minutes of continual powered flight, or
up to 15mins with mixed throttle flying. Mixed throttle flying is really where it's at with the
Excalibur V2. Full power climbs will get you to the cloud base in seconds, and a quick flick of
the sticks has you coming back down again in either a powered or none powered dive, either
way it will be blisteringly fast and rock solid all the way. Or, remove the prop completely and
you've got yourself a ready to run high energy slope machine with the included optional slope
nose cone, the set-up is exactly the same.
When it does come to time to land, the Excalibur V2 does as all good gliders should and that's
glide. So to bleed speed and reduce height when landing, fly an 'S' type approach or mix
flapperons into your model. The Excalibur V2 will remain responsive throughout the speed
range, all the way down to the ground.
● For optimum flight performance/model longevity, it is highly recommend that you always fly with
a balanced prop. The supplied prop should be balanced, but it’s always good to check first.
● Keep all leads within the fuselage area as tidy as possible. Tidy wires look better, allow for easier
access to all internal components, better battery installation, increased airflow around electronics
and a reduction in potential electronic signal interference (noise).
