Nexa F-82 Twin Mustang 2100mm (82.6″) Wingspan – ARF

Introduction

F-82 Twin Mustang 2100mm (82.6″) Wingspan – ARF from Nexa – NXA1007-001

The North American F-82 Twin Mustang was the last American piston-engine fighter ordered into production by the United States Air Force. Based on the P-51 Mustang, the F-82 was originally designed as a long-range escort fighter in World War II; however, the war ended well before the first production units were operational.

The Nexa F-82 Twin Mustang is a .50 size electric scale series warbird with a 2100mm wingspan, constructed primarily from balsa wood and fully covered. This ARF requires assembly and installation of your choice of servos and power system, and includes a three piece wing design with aluminum wing joiners, flaps, large battery hatch in both fuselages, painted pilot and pre-hinged and installed control surfaces. A rarity in the hobby, this model would be the talk of any RC airfield.
