<p>The Grumman F7F Tigercat is a twin piston engine aircraft developed during World War II.</p><p>Officially licensed by Northrop Grumman, the FlightLine F7F-3 Tigercat’s 1600mm wingspan and 1/10 sport scale matches our popular P-38 Lightning, and the two look excellent in flight formation together! In the air, the FlightLine F7F-3 Tigercat exhibits fantastic stability, is very easy to control at a wide speed range, and has a predictable stall with easy recovery.</p><p><br></p><p>The main wing halves, horizontal stabilizer, and two engine nacelles each install with four screws. A new pliable ribbon wiring harness simplifies each wing connection to one instead of five. The antenna and gun barrels are also designed to easily slide out to prevent damage during transport. A plastic nose cone, cowls, and doors are designed for longevity. The generously sized battery bay can accommodate your batteries, receiver, and optional gyro in a cleanly organized layout. To ensure a secure fit, the cockpit of this FlightLine F7F-3 Tigercat is held on by both magnets and a sliding latch. The FlightLine F7F-3 Tigercat arrives with dependable electronics pre-installed. The aircraft uses our DayBright 3W LEDs for visibility.</p><p><br></p><p>The F7F-3’s generous main wing area allows a short takeoff distance of 15-20 meters, and its 70mm diameter nose wheel and 80mm diameter main wheels and thick steel struts are excellent for operating on typical grass airfields. An optional aluminum compression strut upgrade is available for rougher grass conditions. The Tigercat’s tricycle landing gear reduces the risk of tipping forward after landing and makes taxing on the ground very stable. Four flaps slow the aircraft for controlled power on landings at low speed. For efficient power, the aircraft features a pair of 3748-600kv brushless motors, 3-blade 12x7 propellers (Standard and Reverse rotation), and two 60A ESCs. The model’s top speed is 125kph/78mph<br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><h4><b>FEATURES:</b></h4><p></p><p><br></p><ul><li><p>Scale profile, accurate wing dihedral, and precisely modeled overall aircraft proportions</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Removable wings for easy transport</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Scale three blade propeller achieves 78 mph and scale plus thrust</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Four different decal sets included inside the box</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Day-bright navigation LEDs and accurately actuating landing gear light</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Large cabin space for easy placement of electronics</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Durable electric retractable landing gear with metal trunnions and 4mm steel wire struts</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Tall foam rubber wheels for optimal handling on paved surfaces and short grass fields</p></li></ul>
