UMX P-51D Mustang “Detroit Miss” BNF Basic with AS3X and SAFE Select

The E-flite® UMX™ P-51D Mustang is a warbird version of the popular UMX P-51D Voodoo racer that’s finished in the historic “Detroit Miss” trim scheme making it the most affordable, convenient, and easiest-to-fly model of the iconic WWII fighter yet!






Introduction


On October 7th, 1944, Urban L. Drew – also known as “Ben” Drew – became one of only three USAAF pilots to
encounter the then-new Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter during a combat mission over enemy territory. He
then became the first and only Allied pilot to shoot down two of the jet-powered aircraft while flying
his personal P-51D Mustang named “Detroit Miss.” The E-flite® UMX™ P-51D Mustang is a replica of that
history-making aircraft, complete with a variety of scale details, impressive handling, and outstanding
performance. Exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies, along with the 2S and
3S compatible power system, deliver an unmatched ultra-micro Mustang flying experience.

Overview


The P-51D Mustang is world-renowned as quite possibly the most iconic fighter aircraft of all time! Its
unique design resulted in it delivering some of the best performance among all fighter aircraft flown in
WWII. “Detroit Miss” is a history-making P-51D Mustang that was flown by Urban “Ben” Drew, and in 1944
he became the first USAAF pilot to shoot down two jet-powered Messerschmitt Me 262 fighter aircraft with
it. The E-flite UMX P-51D Mustang is an ultra-micro sized model of the famous aircraft that’s a warbird
version of the popular UMX P-51D Voodoo racer. It’s equipped with expertly-tuned AS3X and optional-use
SAFE Select technologies, is 2S and 3S battery compatible, and provides real-time battery voltage
telemetry to compatible transmitters. Because of its ultra-micro size, the UMX P-51 can be flown in more
places and smaller spaces including many yards, parks, and sports fields! The fixed landing gear with a
steerable tailwheel makes it easy to taxi, takeoff from, and land on smooth surfaces, or you can leave
the landing gear off for more speed and vertical performance with easy hand launches over and landings
on grass. It’s the most affordable, convenient, and easiest-to-fly replica of a P-51D Mustang yet!

Exclusive Technologies

This UMX™ P-51D Mustang features exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies.
AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a
locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use
SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-leveling that can
be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this the easiest to fly P-51 warbird
yet!


 





Telemetry Capable src="https://www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/PDPImages/EFLU7350_PP_03.jpg"
class="img-fluid">

Telemetry Capable

The UMX P-51D Mustang is equipped with a control unit/flight controller that includes an ESC
and Spektrum receiver that provides real-time flight battery voltage telemetry to compatible
Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the
DX9, NX6 to 20, the iX12 to 20, and others) while you fly.

High Performance src="https://www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/PDPImages/EFLU7350_PP_04.jpg"
class="img-fluid">

High Performance

The factory-installed brushless power system features a 2S and 3S-compatible outrunner motor.
This power system setup delivers similar performance to the original when flown with 2S
280–300mAh batteries (a suitable JST-RCY to JST-PH adapter, including SPMXCA327, may be
required), or it’s one of the fastest UMX models ever and has unlimited vertical performance
when it’s flown with 3S 300mAh batteries!


 











Gear Options src="https://www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/PDPImages/EFLU7350_PP_06.jpg"

Gear Options

You can use the included fixed landing gear – with a steerable tailwheel mounted in the scale
location – to taxi, take off from and land on smooth surfaces. Or you can leave the landing
gear off for more speed and vertical performance when hand launching over and landing on
grass.

Durable Design

Construction with advanced EPS material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe that’s
also easily repairable with odorless/foam-safe CA, Foam 2 Foam, epoxy, and other
foam-friendly adhesives. In the unfortunate event you damage any airframe parts or
components and can't repair them, a full line of replacement/spare parts is readily
available.


 












Skill Level 2 – Some Experience Required src="https://www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/PDPImages/EFLU7350_PP_07.jpg"

Skill Level 2 – Some Experience
Required

Skill Level 2 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for RC pilots who already have some
experience and the skills to assemble and/or set up and fly similar class models. And although
this is one of the easiest-to-fly P-51 models yet, it’s not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft
for new pilots or “next step after a trainer” model for low-time RC pilots. You should have the
experience and skills necessary to successfully fly higher performance ultra-micro models like
the various UMX Timber models, or larger models like the E-flite T-28 Trojan 1.1m, the Commander
mPd 1.4m, Timber 1.5m models, or other similar class models before attempting to fly the UMX
P-51D Mustang.


Are you new to flying RC (Radio Controlled) aircraft? If you are, the UMX P-51D Mustang is not a
suitable first-ever RC model and we recommend learning to fly with one of our purpose-built
trainer aircraft, such as the HobbyZone® Apprentice STOL S 700mm. It's equipped with exclusive
and innovative SAFE technology that makes it possible for almost anyone to learn to fly
successfully! The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version includes everything needed to fly and is a perfect
choice if you're a new RC pilot.
