This is the E-Flite Micro P-47 Thunderbolt 625mm BNF Basic with AS3X+ and SAFE Select
Micro P-47 Thunderbolt
The E-flite Micro P-47 Thunderbolt 625mm is a “full-house” replica of the iconic WWII fighter that features first-in-class functional retracts and flaps to deliver an authentic warbird experience in more places and smaller spaces while being more affordable and convenient for intermediate to experienced pilots!
The E-flite Micro P-47 Thunderbolt 625mm is scaled to be affordable and practical for more RC pilots to own and fly. It's also the first-ever micro-class warbird model to include functional flaps, retracts, and LED navigation lights! The brushless power system is compatible with popular 3S 600–850mAh batteries, plus the Spektrum receiver is equipped with enhanced AS3X+ and optional-use SAFE Select technologies to make it one of the easiest to fly P-47 models yet.
The retractable landing gear with a steerable tail wheel makes it easy to taxi, take off from, and land on smooth surfaces, or you can leave the landing gear retracted to hand launch and belly land when flying over grass. It arrives factory-finished in a fully painted scale trim scheme and is ready to fly after quickly installing the one-piece wing with a single thumbscrew.
Built like a flying tank, the P-47 Thunderbolt packed the wallop of eight .50 caliber machine guns and could carry enough bombs plus rockets to wipe a ground target clean off the map. The E-flite Micro P-47 Thunderbolt 625mm is slightly larger than UMX (Ultra Micro eXtreme) and other ultra-micro class models to better replicate the full-scale aircraft's design while including as many scale details as possible in the fully molded EPO airframe.
It's still small and light enough to fly in large yards, small parks, sports fields, and beyond – yet it also features incredible surface details, including molded-in panel lines, machine guns, and more. Best of all, it's the first “full house” micro class warbird model to include functional retracts, flaps, and LED navigation lights!
The high-power brushless outrunner motor can drive the 4-blade propeller with a 3S 600–850mAh battery for everything from smooth and scale-like flight to better-than-scale vertical performance and aggressive aerobatics. The factory-installed Spektrum receiver and Avian Smart Lite ESC deliver real-time telemetry data, including overall battery voltage, current, motor RPM, and more, to compatible AirWare-equipped transmitters – with Smart and non-Smart batteries.
The receiver is also equipped with expertly tuned AS3X+ technology, giving you the smooth, locked-in feel of a larger model – even in some wind – along with optional-use SAFE Select to make it even easier to fly. The Micro P-47 arrives factory-finished with a premium, fully-painted plus decal trim scheme and mostly factory-assembled with a separate one-piece wing that can be installed or removed quickly and easily with a single thumbscrew.
It all comes together to deliver an authentic – yet affordable and convenient – warbird flying experience you can't get with any other P-47 model!
Features
Bind-N-Fly Basic Completion Level Advantage
Already own a Spektrum transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly (transmitter, battery and charger sold separately)!
Exclusive Technologies
This P-47 replica is equipped with exclusive Spektrum AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. Enhanced AS3X+ works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this an easier to fly P-47.
Smart Transmitter File
This BNF aircraft is equipped with a receiver that is loaded with a Smart Transmitter File (STF) that makes programming your Spektrum NX or iX series transmitter as easy as a few clicks of a button. When you bind your transmitter to an STF-equipped aircraft, all programming parameters download automatically from the receiver if you choose. Switch assignments, rates, expo, telemetry, and voice callouts configure themselves. No lengthy step-by-step instructions. No continual adjustments. Just push-button convenience that gets you flying faster.
Telemetry Capability
The Micro P-47 Thunderbolt is equipped with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC that provides a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data including overall battery voltage, current draw, and more – when using Smart and non-Smart batteries – to compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, the iX12 to 20, and others) while you fly.
High Performance
The factory-installed brushless power system features a powerful 3S-compatible outrunner motor equipped with a 4-blade prop. This power system setup delivers great speed and vertical performance, plus flight times, when using the recommended 600mAh non-Smart and 850mAh Smart 30+C LiPo batteries with an IC2 connector.
Functional Features
This is the first micro class warbird model to include functional retracts, flaps for shorter takeoffs/landings plus improved slow-speed performance, along with LED navigation lights. The retractable landing gear with a steerable tail wheel makes it easy to taxi, take off from, and land on smooth surfaces, or you can leave the landing gear retracted to hand launch and belly land when flying over grass.
Durable Design
The EPO airframe features various scale details plus composite throughout to make it highly durable yet lightweight. The result is an outstanding scale appearance that's easy to maintain and delivers the best possible flying experience.
Easy Assembly
The Micro P-47 arrives mostly factory-assembled with the installed power system, servos, and receiver. All you need to do is install the one-piece wing with a single thumbscrew, which can be removed quickly and easily for even more convenient storage and transport. It's also factory-finished with a premium, fully painted, plus decal trim scheme that makes for a scale replica you'll be proud to show off everywhere you go.
