The most successful fighter of WWII, the P-51D Mustang still thrills thousands today in air shows and air races around the world. Now anyone with a DSM2™ aircraft system can experience Mustang thrills on a smaller scale with this fully-aerobatic, brushless-powered Bind-N-Fly™ reproduction from ParkZone. And getting it airborne is about as simple as it gets. Just attach the wing and tail, charge the battery, bind the receiver to your full range DSM2 transmitter and you’re flying.
Victory rolls, Cuban-8s, Immelmans—ParkZone’s P-51D can do them all thanks to its powerful 480 brushless outrunner motor and semi-symmetrical airfoil. The paint scheme and decals are an authentic reproduction of the actual markings from “Gun Fighter,” a P-51D that regularly flies in airshows around the country. You even have the option of adding a 4th rudder channel for extra maneuverability (requires an additional servo, sold separately).

I have recently entered into this hobby, and the Parkzone P-51D BNF was the second plane I flew. I started with the Parkzone Ember 2 to learn the basics of flight control and orientation (especially plane flying towards you), and I did a lot of simulator time with the G-5 version of Real Flight. The P-51D should NOT be your first plane, as you will crash, crash, crash. The P-51 goes where you point it, and if you do not have the basic controls down you will roll it into the ground with your ailerons. If you have flown a basic trainer successfully, however, you will be able to fly this plane.
What I really like about the Parkzone P-51 is that it is a great flier at all speeds, and it is very durable. To date, it has flown full speed into a tree (and spent more than a week in the tree before it finally blew down), and it has crashed a couple of times (dead stick landings in the wind are not good). Repairs included 5 minute epoxy and duct tape (for crashes at the field we used tape and put it back in the air immediately). She still flies great and is now my favorite plane for windy weather and new aerobatic training. I am averaging 10 minute flights with throttle management (this does include several high speed passes). I have also expanded my fleet to include the Parkzone Corsair, Super Cub, T-28, and the ME-109. All of which are great fliers and great fun!
My work, kids, and family keep me too busy to build RC Airplanes, and Parkzone has made it possible for me to do what I want- FLY! I can't say enough about this great line of planes.
