Overview
From Pearl Harbor through 1942 the F4F Wildcat was the only U.S. fighter in the Pacific theater capable of thwarting the advances of Japan's naval air forces. And though it was slower and less maneuverable than the vaunted Zero, its heavier armor, self-sealing fuel tanks and rugged airframe could often help a skilled pilot overcome this performance gap and live to fight another day.

ParkZone brings the legendary Wildcat to life with this great flying Bind-N-Fly park flyer modeled after a plane flown by Lieutenant Commander Edward "Butch" O'Hare -- the U.S. Navy's first flying ace. Scale touches include a realistic paint scheme, simulated engine cylinders and cowl flaps, molded wheels tucked into the fuselage and more. Its flight performance is equally impressive thanks to the full 4-channel control and ample power provided by its 480 brushless motor and the included 3S 1300mAh Li-Po battery.

Best of all, you can have it flying in the time it takes you to charge the included battery pack and bind its Spektrum™ AR500 receiver to your full-range DSM2™ aircraft system (sold separately).

  • I love this plane it's so amazing crashed on maiden /: but cheap easy fix flies great amazing climb rate and keeps its speed awesome with engine off great flight times also

  • @ilikchez I still fly mine stock and enjoying it. Thanks for watching.

  • Two questions for you. I'd like to get this for my 12 year old who has never flown before nor have I. Do you think a 12 year old can handle this plane? Secondly, how much do you think the damage would be for plane, remote, everything that is needed for it to fly?

  • @reformedman This is not a good plane for a novice pilot. I would suggest a high wing trainer first.

  • your garage looks like a hobby shop!

  • @LongboardHeliPilot My hobby shop is my "man cave". Lol... Thanks for watching.

  • do you fly full power?

    Im from germany and 13 years, sort for my english.

  • @tarzan07330 I would recommend getting a hobbyzone champ as a beginner plane it really helped me out and a lot of people went straight into a intermediate plane like this and ended up crashing.hope this helps.by the way the champ is rtf and is 89.89 and batteries are on hobbyking for like 1.50

  • looking at getting this one or the p51 mustang for my first rc plane. i know people say these aren't for beginners, but i fly my 6 channel heli fine and have no problem flying any of the planes on my phoenix sim. so that being said, which of these 2 would you recommend?

  • @reformedman Try the free download FMS RC Simulator first. It will save time, money, agravation, frustration and disappointment that might turn you from this enjoyable and rewarding hobby.

  • would this or the parkzone spitfire be a good 2nd plane? i have the super cub lp and can fly it great. please respond

  • @reformedman definitely not get a super cub lp I learned on one and it's a durable plane
