Description

The FMS P-51D Mustang V8 1450mm Red Tail – ARTF (FMS008P) refines a legendary warbird with careful, considered upgrades. FMS focuses on craftsmanship and evolution rather than radical redesigns, delivering a more durable airframe, improved scale detail and an enhanced flying experience in this Red Tail edition.

For warbird enthusiasts seeking realism and stability, the V8 iteration stands out. Subtle but meaningful updates include slower, more scale-like retract action, shock-absorbing struts, a new gear-door sequencer, metal-gear servos throughout and a convenient sliding battery tray. An upgraded 80A ESC with 5A SBEC and the FMS gold PAEP motor round out the power system improvements, while the sliding canopy and open air intake add to the authentic presence.

Features

  • Upgraded landing gear featuring slower, scale-like action
  • Shock absorbing struts with 4mm diameter lower section
  • New FMS sequencer which closes the gear doors after gear is down
  • New removable sliding battery tray
  • Upgraded horizontal and vertical stabilisers with hard points for glue-less assembly
  • New 17g metal gear servos throughout
  • New sliding canopy
  • New open air intake
  • New 80A ESC with 5A SBEC (old version 70A; latest 80A)
  • New FMS gold PAEP motor

FMS 1450mm P-51D V8: A Legendary Warbird, Refined

The iconic P-51D Mustang continues to soar with the release of the **FMS 1450mm P-51D Version 8**. FMS remains steadfast in its mission to develop the finest foam aircraft in the world, and the V8 edition of this beloved warbird reflects that dedication — not through dramatic redesigns, but through careful, considered improvements that showcase a commitment to perfection.

While the changes in V8 may appear subtle, they reinforce FMS's serious approach to craftsmanship and product evolution. Every enhancement — no matter how small — contributes to a better flying experience, a more durable airframe and an even more authentic scale presence.

A Must-Have for Warbird Enthusiasts

The P-51 Mustang is widely regarded as one of the most celebrated warbirds in aviation history. For many collectors and RC pilots, owning a P-51 is a long-standing dream. The **FMS 1450mm P-51D V8** delivers the realism, flight stability and visual appeal that make it the ideal choice for warbird lovers everywhere.

We believe that the V8 is not only one of the best P-51 models FMS has produced, but also one of the finest RC foam warbirds available today.

Important Note:

Please be aware that the new V8 tail surfaces are not compatible with earlier versions of the FMS P-51D.

Questions & Answers

Real questions from real customers. Why not ask your own?
Will this work with a 2200mah 11.1v lipo?
Oscar Michael Daly / 2nd May 2025

This needs a 4s battery they recommend at least 2600 mah for run time.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Can this land and take-off from grass?
Oscar Michael Daly / 2nd May 2025

Yes if the grass is nicely trimmed it will be fine , this will not land on long grass .

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Can I fly this plane as a novice?
Graham Andrews / 10th January 2024

This is not something we would recommend as a beginner i would look at trainer planes first also you want an RTF version with the transmitter and battery and charger ideally something like this FMS138R-REFV2
