ST Model FW190 RC Plane w Brushless Outrunner Motor

Take to the skies with ST Model's FW190A RC plane replica.

The FW-190A was a serious shock to the RAF when it came on the scene in 1942. Until the Spitfire MkIX arrived it completely outclassed the Spitfire MkV. No wonder it was nicknamed the 'Butcher Bird'. The Fw-190A swiftly became the mount of choice for many German fighter aces and remained in production in various guises for the rest of the war.

ST have re-created a fabulous scale version of the FW-190A and lavished the level of detail on it that has not been seen on a foam model before.

There is a fully scale retracting undercarriage as standard with contoured doors that has working sprung oleo struts. The split flaps have concealed linkages inside the wings and are amazingly effective. Slow controlled landings on calm days are no problem at all. The control surface hinges are fully hidden and the horns/pushrods have been minimised so as not to spoil the scale appearance.

The powerful brushless outrunner motor drives a scale 3-bladed propeller through a scale spinner with integral fan. Just like the real one. The fan also provides the necessary cooling air flow to the motor battery and ESC and that air exits via the scale exhaust recesses. Power control comes from the latest 36A ESC with integral BEC circuit. That BEC is more than enough for the five pre-installed 9g servos.

The cockpit has a seat control column and instrument panel and just needs a pilot to complete.

The stunning colour scheme and decals are the icing on the cake giving this Fw-190 the 'wow' factor that she richly deserves.
