RealFlight Evolution - E-flite Gee Bee R-2 1.0m

Aviation history produced few designs as unique and recognizable as the Gee Bee R-2, yet RC modelers rarely get the chance to fly one. The E-flite® Gee Bee R-2 1.0m is a conveniently sized replica that offers incredible scale detail, modern conveniences, features, and technologies to deliver a truly unmatched flying experience! It's capable of fast and smooth flying at speeds of up to 100 MPH in a dive, along with a variety of aerobatics, and has unexpectedly stable slow-speed handling that makes it easier and more enjoyable for intermediate to experienced pilots to fly.

It features an authentic outline and an abundance of scale details, including molded-in panel lines, a simulated radial engine, flying wires, and a pilot figure. Functional features include shock-absorbing landing gear and wheels specifically designed to make it easier to land, along with a steerable tailwheel.

This model is equipped with Horizon Hobby and Spektrum exclusive AS3X (Artificial Stabilization – 3-aXis) and optional-use SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) Select technologies, and when SAFE Select is turned on using the mode switch (B on the Spektrum InterLink DX controller) it offers:

• Pitch and Bank Angle Limits: These envelope limits keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.

• Automatic Self-Leveling: The airplane instantly returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the center position. It’s also helpful for keeping the wings level during takeoffs and landings.
