The Gloster Meteor was Britain's first jet fighter and the only jet aircraft used by the Allies during World War II.
Needless to say, this aircraft is a great replica of this iconic aircraft. The Dynam Gloster Meteor F8 V2 RC aircraft is a striking red and silver design. Made from durable and lightweight EPO foam, the aircraft has a wingspan of 1270 mm (50 inches) and a fuselage length of 1510 mm (59 inches). The RC aircraft model is equipped with two 70 mm 12-blade EDF motors, Skylord 80A ESCs and TomCat TC-2860A-2200KV brushless motors and retractable landing gear, while there is plenty of room for higher capacity batteries or advanced flight control systems such as iStone stabilizers or Detrum SR86A receivers.
