A-10 Thunderbolt II "Warthog" Super Scale Twin 80mm EDF Jet from Freewing - PNP

Renowned by its crews and the men and women it has protected on the ground for decades, the A-10 Thunderbolt II, affectionately called the ‘Warthog’, continues to dominate the skies on CAS missions in conflict areas around the world. Despite first flying over 40 years ago, the A-10’s superior ability to execute its intended mission in modern warfare remains unchallenged.

To honor this iconic aircraft we are very proud to announce the world’s largest and most definitive foam electric PNP A-10 Thunderbolt RC model aircraft in the world! Powered by twin 80mm EDFs, this 1700mm wingspan beast is larger than any other foam A-10 on the market, yet it remains easy to transport. The Freewing 80mm A-10 delivers the best balance between size, weight, thrust, top speed, stall speed, transportability, rough grass handling, and overall scale fidelity.

In the air, the A-10's all-new power system delivers a fully scale flight profile. Tall vertical loops, hard "jinking" turns, stable slow flight, and authoritative power. Critically, this model was designed to fly at all throttle points, both upright and inverted, without pitch sensitivity. There isn't any nose weight in this A-10; instead various factors were optimized in concert so you won't need lots of up elevator to fly level, and varying power suddenly won't cause the nose to pitch up or down.

As a semi-scale model, the Freewing 80mm A-10 is finished from the factory in USAF two tone gray. A waterslide decal set with over 50 utility markings and three complete A-10 liveries, is included for the pilot to customize his or her A-10. These decals proudly represent Indiana's 163rd Fighter Squadron "Blacksnakes", Louisiana's 47th Fighter Squadron "Termites" and Georgia's 23rd Fighter Group "Flying Tigers."

Key Features:

  • Largest foam electric PNP A-10 Warthog in the world!
  • Full complement of highly detailed weapons included in the box (CAS loadout)
  • Weapon plyons are individually removable from the wing and each weapon can be placed on any of the 8 included plylons for total customization.
  • 90mm bolt-on nacelles for those who wish to install a 90mm power system (sold separately)
  • Award Winner at AEF 2017 for "Best Scale Jet"
  • High scale fidelity
  • Qualifies as Giant Scale Class per AMA rules
  • Grass-ready retracts with metal trunions and 5mm hardened steel pin
  • Multi-material (full carbon fiber spars, plywood ribs, and aluminum blocks) wing structure for best balance of rigidity and smooth flight handling
  • Scale wheel hubs and sequenced nose gear door
  • DayBright LEDs and sequenced landing light
  • Screw-on wings and tail surfaces
  • Flexible wing wire harness for ultimate reliability and resistance to disconnection during wing flexing
  • Spacious battery bay, no cutting required
  • Digital Metal Gear Servos throughout
  • Three unique livery options and 50 different utility decals are included in the box for maximum customization
  • Model officially licensed by Northrop Grumman
