Overview

Presenting Pilot-RC's first composite scale warbird! It could be no other than the fantastic P47, specifically, the P47D variant.

With its instantly recognisable lines and large wing for friendly handling it is ideal both as crown jewel and everyday hack.

Designed around popular engine sizes, we have tested our P47D both with the straight forward single cylinder DA85, and also with the more scale like three cylinder Saito FG-90R3 with outstanding results.

Needing a very short takeoff roll, and no wing waggle, this model will inspire confidence from day one.
