E-Flite Focke-Wulf Fw 190A 1.5m Smart BNF Basic w/ AS3X w/ SAFE Select

World War II Germanys Focke-Wulf Fw 190A featured a relatively simple design that placed a large radial engine into the narrow fuselage of a small, single-seat fighter.

After the "Butcher Bird" took its first flight on June 1, 1939, its effectiveness in air superiority, interception, ground attack and bombing roles led many Luftwaffe pilot to happily trade their Messerschmitt Bf 109s for the new warbird. This first-ever E-flite® Focke-Wulf model is based on a full-scale replica once owned by the late Rudy Frasca. Painted with the wartime markings of Austrian Luftwaffe pilot Oskar Bosch, the replica has been flown in west coast airshows and at the National Air Races in Reno. The E-flite Fw 190A 1.5m stands apart from all other RC model versions by delivering superior Extra Scale details, functional features and performance in a larger size, while being easy to assemble, transport and store. Its also equipped with a Spektrum(TM) Avian(TM) Smart ESC to deliver a warbird experience unlike any other!

Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage

Already own a Spektrum(TM) 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!

If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection technology built into the receiver. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual.

With SAFE Select enabled, you get:

• Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
• Automatic Self-Leveling
• Easy Switch Assignment - No Complex Programming Required

If you dont want to enable the SAFE Select features, just bind the receiver normally and it will function like a standard AS3X receiver.
