Overview
Not a kit that needs building, this is a factory assembled warbird replica with the motor, receiver and servos already installed. An EPP airframe, a pop off prop saver and sensor assisted flight help new pilots learn.
Everything needed to fly is in the box, including a spare propeller and four AA batteries for the transmitter. The main limit is that it is a light outdoor airplane, so it needs calm weather and open ground.
Who it's for
Beginners who want a trainer that arrives assembled and includes its own controller and charger. Parks and soccer fields give it the room it needs. Experienced pilots after speed or a bigger airframe will outgrow it fast.
Pros and cons
- Ready to fly out of the box
- Spare propeller with prop saver
- Pilot assist helps prevent crashes
- Durable EPP airframe per description
- Outdoor use only
- Light airframe needs calm air
- Short flight time not stated
- Needs a large open space
Performance notes
The sensor assisted flight system limits overcontrol and helps the plane level itself, so a first time pilot can recover from mistakes. A rotary aileron servo and a five channel link handle the control surfaces. Light weight means wind has a big effect on how steady the flight feels.
