Radio Controlled (RC) Warbird Airplanes

Our RC Warbirds give pilots the chance to relive history by flying models of aircraft operated by US, British, German, Japanese and Russian militaries during WWII and other periods. As sport scale representations of their real-life counterparts many of our warbirds feature scale details including retractable landing gear, Day-Bright LED lights, drop tanks, and detailed cockpits.

Our Warbird collection offers a wide selection of warbirds in various sizes and price ranges. Warbirds commemorate warfighting aircraft throughout aviation history, and our RC models seek to mimic the appearance and performance of their full-scale counterparts. Unique features include precisely modeled overall proportions, improved spinner and propeller mounting designs for improved balance, accurate wing dihedral, flaps for easier take-offs and landings, powerful outrunner brushless electric motors, scale bladed propellers, and various highly detailed armament attachments.

The historically oriented nature of the Warbird class of RC aircraft allows for a bevy of paint and decal options befitting aircraft of their respective eras. High-quality decal sets are provided with most of our RC Warbirds to ensure you receive the most historically accurate representation of these beloved aircraft, and some are pre-painted in various paint schemes including those of the WWII RAF, German Luftwaffe, US Air Corps and Air Force, and several others. Hand-painted pilot figures and molded panel lines add to the historical allure of these stunning RC aircraft, and history buffs will appreciate the meticulous attention to detail and authenticity.
