The F4U Corsair, with its unique inverted gull wing, is one of the most iconic U.S. Navy and Marine fighter aircraft of World War II. This updated and upgraded version of the E-flite® F4U-4 Corsair 1.2m features a factory-installed 3S and 4S compatible power system with an exclusive 70A Smart Lite ESC to deliver more capabilities and performance. The BNF® Basic version includes a telemetry-capable AR631 receiver with both AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. The airframe is finished in the iconic "all blue" trim scheme and includes separate decal sheets to customise it with MARINES, NAVY, and other markings. Factory-installed rotating retracts with strut covers, plus operational flaps, take your scale warbird experience to another level.
This updated version is the smartest, most powerful, and easiest to fly full-house model of the iconic warbird yet. The factory-installed brushless power system features a 70-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart Lite ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and 4-blade prop. This combination delivers an abundance of thrust with a 3S LiPo battery, or more speed and nearly unlimited vertical performance with a 4S battery. The ESC can provide a variety of real-time power system related telemetry data including motor RPM, current, battery voltage and more via compatible receivers (including the AR631) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters while you fly. No glue is required for final assembly — you can have the F4U-4 Corsair 1.2m ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery.
Personalise your F4U-4 Corsair with the included decal sheets, featuring MARINES, NAVY, and other markings. These allow you to customise the factory-applied blue paint finish, making your warbird truly unique to you.
Get your F4U-4 Corsair 1.2m ready for action in less time than it takes to charge a battery! No glue is required for final assembly. It's conveniently sized to fit most vehicles fully assembled, or you can remove the wing for even easier storage and transport.
The BNF® Basic F4U-4 Corsair comes with exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works subtly to smooth out wind for a larger-plane feel, while optional SAFE Select offers pitch/bank limits and self-levelling, making this Corsair easier to fly.
The F4U-4 Corsair 1.2m features an exclusive Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart Lite ESC, providing real-time telemetry data like motor RPM, current, and battery voltage. This works with both Smart and non-Smart batteries via compatible Spektrum receivers and AirWare™ equipped transmitters as you fly.
The factory-installed brushless power system boasts a 70-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart Lite ESC, a specially-tuned motor, and a 4-blade prop. It delivers ample thrust with a 3S LiPo, or more speed and nearly unlimited vertical performance with a 4S battery, all without any modifications.
The lightweight yet durable, composite-reinforced, and fully-moulded EPO airframe is packed with impressive scale details. You'll find realistic panel lines, a pilot figure, and much more, all contributing to its authentic and classic warbird appearance.
