This is the E-Flite SR-71 Blackbird Twin 40mm EDF Jet, BNF Basic - EFL02050 .

For years, many RC airplane enthusiasts have dreamed of flying a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. E-flite has answered this call and brings you one of the most iconic jet airplanes to date, the officially licensed E-flit SR-71 Blackbird Twin 40mm EDF BNF Basic Electric Jet Airplane. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney J58, the full-sized jet airplane still holds the record for highest and fastest flight (85,069ft at Mach 3.3/2,193.2mph). Now E-flite gives you the ability to fly one of the only jets to ever outrun a missile.

E-flite took special care to ensure the scale looks of this airplane. While E-flite couldn't spring for J58 Turbines, they did give it two powerful 40mm EDF capable of extremely high rpm. The included optional landing gear increases the scale looks and can be removed for increased speed and maneuverability. Made from fully-molded EPO foam, E-flite was able to recreate crisp panel lines and other scale surface details. The included Spektrum electronics boast AS3X making this one of the easiest, and most practical RC SR-71 Blackbirds to date.


Skill Level 3

Even with the equipped AS3X, it is not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft for new pilots or a first-ever EDF jet model for intermediate to experienced RC pilots. High-performance EDF experience is recommended for anyone looking to fly this speed machine. If you are looking for a good start, E-flite recommends the Habu STS as a purpose-built trainer EDF jet airplane.

Features:

  • An officially-licensed replica of the world’s fastest and highest-flying manned aircraft that offers a flying experience unlike any other model
  • The most affordable, practical, and easiest to fly SR-71 EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) jet model yet
  • Real-time overall battery voltage, current, and other telemetry data via compatible transmitters
  • Four factory-installed servos for separate aileron, elevator, and nose gear steering control
  • Take off from and land on smooth surfaces using the included landing gear plus steerable nose wheel
  • Remove the landing gear and utilize the molded-in finger grips plus automatic Hand Launch Assist Mode when flying over grass or other suitable surfaces
  • Includes an extra set of optional-use, red-painted vertical fins that snap into place for improved visibility
