Details

The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground-attack aircraft during the 2nd World War. A sturdy fighter with docile flight characteristics, the P-40 held its own against an often more modern and more numerous enemy. Its rugged quality enabled it to withstand considerable punishment, a characteristic to which many pilots owed their lives. Remembered as a "best 2nd choice," it flew with twenty-eight Allied and friendly nations and served in almost every theater of the war. With 13,738 P-40s built, it would become the third most produced American fighter of the time. The AVG (American Volunteer Group) “Flying Tigers” flew shark-mouthed P-40s against the Japanese over Burma and China, helping give the Warhawk its iconic reputation and sealing its place in aviation history. The Flite Test SkyFX Mighty Mini P-40 Warhawk is a perfect example of a scale flyer. You will get the smoothest rolls and flight experience you could ask for from a Mighty Mini on a 3S. Put in a 4S and it takes it to the next level and makes it a little rocket ship. Equip your Flite Test SkyFX Mighty Mini P-40 Warhawk with the FT Aura 5 Lite flight controller and smooth out your flights by removing the adverse effects of gusty wind. With the initial release of the SkyFX P-40, you can choose between ten (with more in the future) pre-printed color schemes based on actual aircraft, both historic and restored. Enjoy fantastic details like panel lines, rivets, and nomenclature, as well as exhaust and gun streaks. Further detail your FT MM SkyFX P-40 with 3D printed parts such as intakes, gun ports and landing gear pods.
