Freewing SR-71 Blackbird 2x70mm EDF Jet PNP (6 axis Gyro)

Description

The Freewing SR-71 Blackbird pays tribute to one of the most legendary aircraft in aviation history. Developed in the 1960s for high-altitude reconnaissance, the SR-71 set records with its unparalleled speed, cutting-edge engineering, and futuristic design. This model faithfully captures the details of the original with its sleek, unmistakable silhouette and incredible scale details, including a functional drag chute, full-flying vertical stabilizers, and complete, functional gear doors. At over 6 feet (1.85m) long, the SR-71 provides a commanding presence in the air and is guaranteed to be the star of any flying field.

What sets this model apart is the extensive list of custom-molded and precision-engineered components. From custom CNC-machined landing gear struts and unique, custom-molded pilot figures to the custom wheels and tires as well as the carbon-reinforced fuselage that easily splits in half for disassembly, every part of this aircraft was designed specifically to deliver unrivaled realism, durability, and ease of transport. These premium, model-specific parts ensure that the SR-71 is not only a breathtaking display piece but also an easy-to-assemble, transportable marvel.

Designed for ultimate realism and personalization, the SR-71 includes three unique decal sets or can be further enhanced with your own custom designs. Powered by twin 12-blade 70mm EDFs with efficient 2957-2210Kv inrunner motors and thrust-reversing ESCs, it delivers impressive thrust, turbine-like sound, and shortened landings. The pre-installed Freewing EG01 6-axis gyro ensures smooth, stable flights right out of the box, while spring-loaded electronics hatches offer durability and convenience. With its perfect combination of scale detail, user-friendly features, and innovative performance, the Freewing SR-71 Blackbird justifies its premium price and is a must-have for RC pilots and aviation enthusiasts alike.
