Seagull Models - SEA257NGEAR
Focke Wulf FW-190 A-5 55cc 2.33m ARF Kit, Including Electric Retracts, PU rubber wheels and matte finish.
The Seagull Models FW‑190 A‑5 is a commanding giant‑scale recreation of one of Germany’s most respected WWII fighters. Known as the Butcher Bird, the FW‑190 earned a reputation for its ruggedness, power, and exceptional roll rate — qualities that Seagull has captured beautifully in this 80‑inch ARF. Finished in a matte Luftwaffe camouflage scheme and built from precision‑cut balsa and plywood, this model delivers both scale presence and dependable performance.
This version includes the ER‑150 electric retract system with an 85° extension angle, PU rubber wheels, and gear doors — giving the aircraft an authentic stance and smooth, reliable operation on grass or paved runways. Operational flaps, a fiberglass cowl, dummy bombs, and a removable top hatch further enhance both realism and practicality.
Designed for 50–55cc gas engines (with optional electric conversion), the FW‑190 A‑5 offers stable, predictable handling for its size while still delivering the spirited performance warbird pilots expect.
A perfect choice for pilots ready to step into a large, feature‑rich Axis fighter with serious presence.
