VQ A6M5 Zero 1.58m ARF

Description

The Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero is recognized as one of the finest Japanese fighter aircraft of World War II. Add this iconic warbird to your hangar and take control of a true piece of aviation history.

Regarded as the most famous Japanese fighter of its time, the Zero symbolized Japan’s aeronautical innovation — an aircraft that was incredibly agile, lightweight, and yet easy to fly. Allied pilots feared its presence in dogfights, as it was a formidable opponent that was hard to outmatch.

This VQ A6M5 Zero ARF model faithfully captures the elegance and power of this World War II legend in a 46-size format, making it accessible to most R/C pilots. Its wooden structure, precisely laser-cut and expertly assembled, provides a solid yet lightweight airframe. As with all VQ ARF models, most of the assembly is already done — all that’s left is the final setup, with factory-finished details that meet the standards of a modern ARF.

For added realism, VQ electric retracts (sold separately) can be installed.

Compatible with both electric and glow power setups, whether 2-stroke or 4-stroke, this ZERO offers impressive flight performance, iconic styling, and easy handling. A perfect way to relive the legend — in R/C form.
