  • Official FlightLine 1600mm B-25J Mitchell PNP Thread

    Click image for larger version  Name:	b25.jpg Views:	57 Size:	61.9 KB ID:	380784

    The B-25 Mitchell, produced by North American Aviation, was named in honor of Brigadier General William "Billy" Mitchell and first introduced in 1941. The medium bomber was used in every theater of WWII by various Allied air forces and continued to serve after WWII ended, with over 10,000 developed in numerous variants.

    Motion RC is proud to bring the historic B-25 to the already impressive array of models from FlightLine. This model will satisfy any discerning B-25 aficionados with its fully operational servo-driven bomb doors complete with 4 dummy "bombs" for deployment. The scale CNC-aluminum alloy landing gear with gear doors really compliment the model's scale appeal. The B-25 comes with all digital servos ranging in plastic, hybrid, and metal gear at all the appropriate control surface points.

    Further scale details and amenities include two pilots, 3-blade propellers (normal and reverse), 3 decal sets (Heavenly Body, Executive Sweet and Mitch The Witch), LED lights, flaps and quick-release wings that need no screws for effortless transport. The FlightLine B-25 will unquestionably take over the industry as the finest scale, quality EPO foam B-25 on the market. Secure yours and grace the skies with this must-have for any warbird pilot!
    Effortless Transport with Quick Release Wings

    The FlightLine B-25J Mitchell comes with easy on, easy off quick release outer wings for extremely easy transport. No screws required! Simply clip or unclip the connector and engage the latch toggle levers to lock or unlock.
    3 Different Liveries To Choose From

    The B-25 comes with 3 different decal sets (Heavenly Body, Executive Sweet and Mitch The Witch) to choose from with the stars and bars pre-applied out of the box.
    Scale Details Throughout

    2 painted pilots, 3-blade scale propellers (normal and reverse), functional bomb doors, antennas, guns, LED lights and flaps bring the B-25 to life both on the ground and while flying sorties in the skies.
    Scale CNC-Machined Aluminum Alloy Gear

    The B-25 comes with CNC-machined aluminum alloy landing gear with sequenced gear doors to complete the scale appeal of this beautiful model.
    Fully Operational Bomb Doors

    The FlightLine B-25J Mitchell takes it to the next level in scale detail with the fully functional, servo-driven bomb doors complete with 4 dummy "bombs" you can drop during flight.
    FlightLine Quality You've Come To Expect

    The B-25J Mitchell is the latest model from FlightLine, a world-leader in EPO foam warbirds so you can expect a world-class quality model from nose to tail.
    Digital Servos Throughout

    The B-25J Mitchell employs digital servos throughout the model ranging in plastic, hybrid and metal gear, the latter used on all critical control surfaces like aileron and elevator.
    Counter-Rotating Props

    Counter-rotating propellers provide tracking stability, helping to cancel out the left torque tendencies of many a warbird, keeping your B-25 tracking straight and true down the runway.
    Movable Turrets

    It's just not a B-25 without turrets that can swivel to face those pesky axis fighters. The flightLine B-25 is no different, allowing you to angle your turrets any direction you desire.
    Fully Loaded with LEDs

    The B-25 comes with LED lights throughout adding to the impressive presence of the model. Clearly visible in both day and dusk conditions, the lights not only add scale appeal but practical visual reference in the sky.

                    F4u, Yeah, me too, though this will do nicely.

                    ?1600mm? Not a big girl, but not petite either.

                    Order's in with a July delivery! Wow!

                    Lookin' forward to flying this one.

                    Now what livery?

                        This is hands-down my favorite plane in RealFlight.

                        Mmmmm.... To order or not to order? (kinda spendy)

                          Got mine on order. My father was the radio operator on the B-25 in Germany during WWII. His Brother flew 25 missions as PIC in the B-25 in WWII. I am excited.

                              I won't lie, I was hoping it would be a 2000mm as I loved the size of the BH B-25. But alas, a 1600mm is still a nice size and easier to transport, and I love the easy on/off wings! I've always loved the B-25, such a beautiful twin bomber. I'll definitely be snagging one down the road!

                                I agree. I ordered it first thing this morning but for a bomber I would have wanted it bigger. If a P-51 1600 would be perfect.
