The AT-6 is the first plane in E-flite's new Platinum Series, a series that delivers superior enhanced features and meticulous attention to detail.
E-flite’s AT-6 25e ARF is a superb scale replica of the legendary “AT6 Texan” trainer used by the U.S.A and its allies from WWII through to the late 1960s. It features a level of scale detail that is exceptional for an electric ARF of this size. You get all this realism without having to spend weeks of building, covering and painting. Allowing for a few hours of final assembly and radio installation you’ll have a fantastic flying scale warbird your friends will envy!
The AT-6 25e comes out of the box with all kinds of superbly finished details including a factory-painted fiberglass cowl, air scoops, dummy radial engine, painted canopy and pilot, scale strut covers, scale colour scheme and decals. The Texan’s sheeted airframe replicates its full-scale cousin, whilst helping to maintain the model’s strict scale appearance and strong flight performance. Scale airfoils are used that again maintain the exact scale outline of the AT-6 Texan's tail surfaces including the counterbalances, and both the elevators and rudder are pre-hinged and ready for installation. An optional detailed cockpit kit is available separately (EFL4512), which includes a rear instrument hood, main fuselage rollover structure, two seat backs, and a floor. A detailed pilot is included with the kit and an additional pilot is available separately (EFLA150). UltraCote covering is used throughout and provides a durable, finish. The scale split flaps are operational and pre-hinged, and by using a unique pin interlock system, they simply plug together and operate using only 2 servos. Whilst the model comes with fixed landing gear, optional Robart retracts (EFL4515) are available that have been specially designed for the AT-6. Making these mechanical retracts functional is as simple as installing a servo and connecting the pre-bent wire linkages. Getting to the battery and speed controller is equally easy; just lift off the hatch, which is secured with a strong magnet, and this large battery compartment can accommodate a wide range of Li-Po packs. Transport to the flying field is very easy thanks to the plug-in tail-plane, removable outer wing panels and the center wing section, which also removes from the fuselage.
This great model comes complete with all the necessary hardware and a fully detailed assembly guide is included to enable E-flite’s most realistic model to date, to be ready for action in no time at all.
