FMS P-51D Mustang V8 1450mm Red Tail - ARTF With Reflex Gyro

The FMS P-51D Mustang V8 1450mm Red Tail ARTF with Reflex Gyro (part number FMS008P-REF) brings an iconic WWII warbird to your flight line with refined engineering and dependable performance. Built from durable EPO foam and factory-finished in the distinctive Red Tail scheme, this 1400/1450-class Mustang combines scale presence with practical features for confident everyday flying.

This latest Version 8 update focuses on reliability and ease of operation. A new landing gear system delivers slower, scale-like action with shock-absorbing struts, while an updated sequencer neatly closes the gear doors after extension. The removable sliding battery tray streamlines pack changes, and the included Reflex stabilisation gyro helps smooth out gusts and assists intermediate pilots in maintaining stable flight.
