E-flite SE5a Biplane Bind-N-Fly Basic Electric Airplane (900mm) w/AS3X & SAFE Technology Highly Detailed WWI Biplane with Modern Performance The E-flite SE5A Bind-N-Fly Electric Biplane brings a refreshing view on an old classic! Often referred to as the “Spitfire of World War One” and considered by many pilots to be the best British single-seat fighter of the time, the Royal Aircraft Factory (RAF) SE5 was instrumental in regaining and maintaining allied air superiority in mid-1917. E-flite has faithfully recreated this with many scale details including the iconic pilot with a scarf! Either scale flying or stretching its legs, the SE5A has something for every pilot to enjoy. About the SE5A Biplane Scale Details This biplane features many scale details including molded-in ribs, radiator and exhaust details, machine guns, and a pilot figure with a scarf, plus optional-use elastic flying wires. This plane also features functional details like large scale main wheels and a hidden steerable tailwheel, along with wings and struts that bolt and snap into place for easy assembly and disassembly. Performance When people see an RC biplane, especially a WWI biplane, you might not be thinking of aerobatics. The SE5 pushes the limits of what you might expect this plane capable of. While fully designed to give a modern take on vintage performance, this plane excels at scale flying and giving a realistic look in the air. Crank up the throws and this plane changes to an extreme machine perfectly performing aggressive aerobatics. This plane can deliver a fun, compact airplane for beginner and intermediate pilots.
