A-1 Skyraider 6 CH Radio Control (RC) Warbird - ARF.
The A-1 Skyraider RC War-bird is a large scale model and the
attention to detail is amazing. All the decals are already in place and
it really does look the part. Striking colours, highly detailed
accessories, 90 degrees rotating servo-less retracts and its large size -
it has a 1600mm wingspan, yes that's 1.6 m - are just a few of the
features packed into this model.
The massive scale makes the A-1 a stunning model airplane, makes it
more stable than smaller models and easier to control, even in windy
conditions.
What does ARF mean? ARF stands for almost ready to fly, an ARF model
has the motor, ESC and servos installed, the package includes battery
and charger, but is missing the receiver and transmitter - this plane
requires a 6ch radio equipment available as one of the options above.
The A-1 Skyraider RC plane takes its power from 600kv outrunner motor
connected to 80A ESC and powerful 14.8V 3200mAh lipo battery. This power
unit allows you to fly the War-bird for 15 min per charge. The A-1 is
constructed of EPO flex foam for excellent impact resistance. The model
has working drop-hinge flaps and air brakes adding to the realism of the
replica plane and the ability to slow down the landing, just like the
full-scale plane.
The prototype of the Skyraider was first flown on 18 March 1945.
Designed as a robust, multi-role attack aircraft for the US Navy, the
carrier-based Skyraider was able to carry a wide variety of weapons on
its numerous wing hard points. The Skyraider first saw combat in the
Korean War, where its long loiter time and heavy load-hauling capability
gave it a distinct utility advantage over the jet aircraft of the
time.During the 1960s, the AD-x designations were changed to A-1D
through A-1J. The A-1 series was operated with enormous success during
the Vietnam War, where it was used in the Ground Attack, Forward Air
Control, and Search and Rescue roles. The AD-6 and AD-7 were used by the
French Armee de l'Air in Algeria.
