A-10 Thunderbolt II 64mm EDF BNF Basic with AS3X and SAFE Select

Description

The E-flite® A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 64mm EDF is a replica of the U.S. Air Force’s prima­ry Close Air Support aircraft. It’s the highest-performance hog model yet, and is also the easiest to fly when equipped with available SAFE® Select technology!

As the primary Close Air Support aircraft of the U.S. Air Force, the A-10 Thunderbolt II is often affectio­nately called the “Warthog” due to its aggressive look, and because it’s a highly accurate and survi­vable weapons-delivery platform. The nose — often decorated with painted teeth — is equipped with a GAU-8 Avenger 30mm gatling gun that unleashes the destructive bite of armor-piercing incendiary rounds. The E-flite® A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 64mm EDF is a scale replica of the iconic aircraft that served with distinction in operations Desert Storm, Desert Fox, Enduring Freedom and others. It delivers excellent top speed and unlimited vertical performance, while also featuring fantastic handling and being the ea­siest to fly hog yet when it’s equipped with exclusi­ve Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies (BNF® Basic version only).

Featuring an all-new design, the E-flite® A-10 Thunder­bolt II Twin 64mm EDF (electric ducted fan) jet is the highest-performance and best-handling model of the popular U.S. Air Force aircraft yet. Its twin 11-blade, 64mm fans are powered by high-RPM brushless motors that are paired with 40A ESCs wired to use a single 6S 3200–4000mAh battery. This perfectly engineered po­wer system produces excellent top speed — up to 100+ MPH in level flight — and unlimited vertical perfor­mance while also delivering class-leading flight times.

The separate BEC and nine factory-installed digital ser­vos with ball-link equipped linkages deliver precise and reliable control. A long list of functional features inclu­des LED navigation lights, operational flaps, twin rud­ders and electric retracts with shock-absorbing struts so you can fly from a variety of surfaces, including grass fields. And details including removable ordnance, mol­ded in panel lines, a cockpit with pilot figure and more add to the incredible scale looks. Plus it arrives factory-finished in the rare “Flipper” three-tone gray camoufla­ge trim scheme that looks great on the ground and in the air. And it all adds up to deliver a “Hog” that’s prac­tically sized so it’s easier to store and transport while also offering an unmatched flying experience you’ll en­joy flight after flight!
