Introduction As the primary Close Air Support aircraft of
the U.S. Air Force, the A-10 Thunderbolt II is often affectionately called the
"Warthog" due to its aggressive look, and because it's a highly accurate and
survivable weapons-delivery platform. The nose — often decorated with painted
teeth — is equipped with a GAU-8 Avenger 30mm gatling gun that unleashes the
destructive bite of armor-piercing incendiary rounds. The E-flite A-10
Thunderbolt II Twin 64mm EDF is a scale replica of the iconic aircraft that
served with distinction in operations Desert Storm, Desert Fox, Enduring
Freedom and others. It delivers excellent top speed and unlimited vertical

Technologies This is the first high-performance A-10 Thunderbolt II model
equipped with both exclusive Spektrum AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. AS3X
works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to
deliver a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger
airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along
with automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a
switch, making this the easiest to fly A-10 yet! And if you don't want to
enable the SAFE Select features, simply bind the receiver normally and only
AS3X will be active. High-Performance EDFs The twin 11-blade 64mm fans, high-
RPM brushless motors and 40-amp ESCs combine with your 6S 3200–4000mAh 30+C
LiPo battery to deliver unlimited vertical performance and a fantastic speed
range, including top speeds up to 100+ MPH in level flight, with virtually
instantaneous throttle response. This power system also delivers better
performance and longer flight times than the 4S-compatible power systems used
in similar class models. But what makes the experience truly rewarding is the
fantastic sound it produces – it's almost like a real turbine engine. Scale
