Watching Wes, (super pilot) fly in the videos with the 6-axis gyro makes it look easy.

I put in my pre-order. The model looks fantastic, with pretty much every feature I'd want out of the SR-71. Love the scale gear and the speed chute. May try to run a 7000 to squeeze out a bit more flight time. Hopefully if this does well, we'll see more similar models (like say, a twin 70mm+ XB-70)

Yes she is a BEAUTY!!

I’m in! Still enjoying the B-2 as well. Such unique birds.

Developed in the 1960s for high-altitude reconnaissance, the SR-71 set records with its unparalleled speed, cutting-edge engineering, and futuristic design. This model faithfully captures the details of the original with its sleek, unmistakable silhouette and incredible scale details, including a functional drag chute, full-flying vertical stabilizers and complete, functional gear doors. At over 6 feet (1.85m) long, the SR-71 provides a commanding presence in the air and is guaranteed to be the star of any flying field.

Designed for ultimate realism and personalization, the SR-71 includes three unique decal sets or can be further enhanced with your own custom designs. Powered by twin 12-blade 70mm EDFs with efficient 2957-2210Kv inrunner motors and thrust-reversing ESCs, it delivers impressive thrust, turbine-like sound, and shortened landings. The pre-installed Freewing EG01 6-axis gyro ensures smooth, stable flights right out of the box, while CNC-machined landing gear struts and a spring-loaded electronics hatches offer durability and convenience. With its perfect combination of scale detail, user-friendly features, and innovative performance, the Freewing SR-71 Blackbird is a must-have for RC pilots and aviation enthusiasts alike.

Massive Size At over 6 feet (1.85m) in length, the Freewing SR-71 provides a commanding presence in the air, and is sure to stand out at your flying site.

Scale, Full Flying Vertical Stabilizers Full flying vertical stabilizers faithfully replicate the full size SR-71’s vertical tail functionality, further enhancing realism.
