Description:

The Mitsubishi A6M Zero was a long range fighter aircraft operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service (IJNAS) from 1940 to 1945. The A6M was designated as the Mitsubishi Navy Type 0 Carrier Fighter, and also designated as the Mitsubishi A6M Rei-sen and Mitsubishi Navy 12-shi Carrier Fighter. The A6M was usually referred to by the Allies as the "Zero", from the 'Navy Type 0 Carrier Fighter' designation. The official Allied reporting name was Zeke.

When it was introduced early in World War II, the Zero was the best carrier-based fighter in the world, combining excellent maneuverability and a very long strike range. In early combat operations, the Zero gained a legendary reputation as a "dogfighter", achieving the outstanding kill ratio of 12 to 1, but by mid-1942 a combination of new tactics and the introduction of better equipment enabled the Allied pilots to engage the Zero on more equal terms.The IJNAS also frequently used the aircraft as a land-based fighter. By 1943, inherent design weaknesses and the increasing lack of more powerful aircraft engines meant that the Zero became less effective against newer enemy fighters that possessed greater firepower, armor, and speed, and approached the Zero's maneuverability. Although the Mitsubishi A6M was outdated by 1944, it was never totally supplanted by the newer Japanese aircraft types. During the final years of the War in the Pacific, the Zero was used in kamikaze operations.In the course of the war, more Zeros were built than any other Japanese aircraft.

Power is provided by an oversized brushless outrunner motor spinning a 3 bladed prop powered by a 4S Li-Po battery and Brushless ESC. Flight performance is excellent with heaps of power for all types of aerobatics and scale flying. This is the perfect daily flyer, just put her in the car and whenever the urge comes over you to have a fly, take your Zero to the local park and away you go!, It fly's so well you'll never want to leave home without it!. Add this Zero to your collection today, the Warbird Flyer from Xtreme Hobby and FMS. Perfect for Grass Take-Offs , Extra Reliable Retract System and Sequenced Gear Doors. You truly wont believe the performance and flight abilities of this plane till you fly it!.

  • Does this have the same retracts as the FMS T-28 mains?

  • @crystal130h Thanks for watching, it does have the same Worm Drive retract set as the FMS T-28.

  • one question:do you know when comes the Focke Wulf 190?

  • @TheFastRacer1 At this stage we are not sure of a release date, but they did tell us at the Beijing Model Expo earlier this year, it would be in the works. Thanks for watching!

  • to:iputacapinurass--as a matter of fact yes they did use canvas covered control surface- less damage if hit by a round. I also believe most if not all WW2 planes used this design

  • Also very cool plane

  • I'm working on putting airsoft lmg on mine

  • Shame there are no hinges on the control surfaces.It just relies on very fine foam molded joint. Have already witnessed one of these and an FMS P47 thunderbolt of the same series bite the dust due to control surface separation. Mine has just arrived and will be installing real hinges to be on the safe side.

  • Get a few guys to fly this at Pearl Harbor....lol....what..too soon?

  • lol canvas ribbed, im pretty sure the zero used aluminum panels

  • looks great i want one please

  • sweet plane, sweet flight.

  • Anyone ever use the flaps? They look kind of small. Can't see how they would help the slow speed stability much.
