This is the FMS A-10 Thunderbolt II “Warthog” V2 70mm EDF Plug-N-Play Electric Ducted Fan Jet Airplane, an evolution of FMS's Flagship model - The A-10 Thunderbolt II. This kit was known for its scale features and performance, making it a favorite among pilots. 

With such a solid base, FMS decided to build on and upgrade this model even further to deliver the next level of performance. Retaining features such as the screw-together air-frame, ball-linked control surfaces and high strength spar system, the A-10 V2 comes together just as easily its predecessor. Scale details remain impeccable- realistic rivets, panel lines, removable bombs and rockets and realistic absorbing CNC landing gear, just to name a few.

Built upon these great features, the A-10 V2 receives ten major structural, electronic and scale improvements:

  • Improved ESC: The dual 70A ESCs are uprated to dual Hobbywing 80A ESCs, with an external 8A BEC for bulletproof performance.
  • Upgraded servos: Elevator and Rudder servos have been upgraded to 23g metal geared servos from the original 17g metal geared units- meaning more torque for the control surfaces giving even better performance.
  • Precision landing gear design: The nose landing gear has been redesigned to minimize play- ensuring the assembly tracks straight and true even at high speeds.
  • Improved connectors: ‘soft’ connector design significantly increases the reliability of the wing quick release system.
  • Increased elevator travel: giving pilots more precision and control authority
  • Improved tires: an improved, more durable compound extends the service life of the landing gear wheels, even in rough field operations.
  • Robust canopy latch: extended pin on the canopy latch reduces the possibility of an accidental canopy release in flight.
  • Enlarged battery bay: now fits two 6S 3300mAh Lipos, for significantly increased flight times.
  • Updated trim scheme
  • Updated scale pilot
Features:
  • Dual 70mm inrunner 12 bladed EDFs and Hobbywing 80A ESCs provide ample thrust.
  • Highly realistic scale features: Rivets, panel lines, CNC shock absorbing landing gears, removable bombs and rocket pods, scale pilot figure etc.
  • Ultra bright LED light system
  • Electronic retracts with over current protection
  • Large diameter bearings in the landing gear allow the A-10 V2 to roll smoothly over rough terrain
  • Installed ball-linked control horns for accurate and precise movements.
