ParkZone P-51 Mustang BL
The P-51 Mustang BL from ParkZone succeeds their big selling brushed motor/NiMH P-51 which has proved itself to be a massive hit with electric RTF warbird fans.
Above, this new P-51 looks just the ticket in the air!
This new version of the famous fighter boasts 480 size brushless outrunner motor powered by a 3S 11.1V 1300mAh Li-Po battery pack, via an 18A brushless ESC. This combination gives the P-51 Mustang BL excellent performance, just like the real thing, while the semi-symmetrical airfoil allows for smooth aerobatics and good stability.
ParkZone have taken the color scheme from a P-51 Mustang still in existence today, named Gunfighter, and they've done an excellent job of reproducing this airplane...

As with all other ParkZone warbirds, the P-51 BL can be purchased either RTF, with 3 channel 35MHz radio, or as a Bind-N-Fly (BNF) version if you already own a DSM2™ compatible transmitter. The BNF version gives you the option to upgrade the airplane from 3 channel to 4 by adding an additional servo for rudder control.
