Few World War II fighters inspired awe in both friend and foe like the F4U-1A Corsair.  Capable of speeds in excess of 400 mph, it left a ghostly howl in its wake that earned it the name "Whistiling Death" among enemy troops.  For those under its protection, however, there was no sweeter sound on earth.

The ParkZone® F4U-1A Corsair plane is a remarkably scale tribute to this warbird icon that's a blast to fly.  Most of its details, including the paint scheme, are already applied for you.  A set of bolt-on drop tanks and two sets of decals are included.  In the air, its potent 15-size, 950Kv brushless motor will deliver all the power you need for high-speed strafing runs and spirited sport aerobatics. 

For a truly spectacular Corsair experience, add the optional flaps and E-flite® electric retracts.* The model has been designed to make installing these options quick and easy, and its Spektrum™ AR600 receiver has all the channels you’ll need.

*Requires two ParkZone SV80 Servos (PKZ1081) and E-flite 10- to 15-size 90-Deg Rotating Electric Retracts (EFLG120), all sold separately.
