Seagull Models P-47 Thunderbolt Tarheel Hal Bubble Top 70in ARF 35cc RC Aircraft - SEASEA398

The Seagull Models P-47 Thunderbolt 'Tarheel Hal' Bubble Top (SEASEA398) is a 70-inch wingspan ARF warbird designed for 35cc gasoline engines, recreating the iconic WWII US Army Air Forces fighter in large-scale RC form. This version does not include retracts, making it a straightforward build for pilots who prefer fixed undercarriage or plan to source their own retract system separately. At 70 inches, this RC plane sits firmly in the large-scale warbird category and delivers the visual presence and flight authority that the P-47 Thunderbolt is known for.

Key Features

• 70-inch wingspan puts this in the large-scale RC aircraft category, suited to experienced fixed-wing pilots
• ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) construction means the airframe is pre-covered and largely pre-built, reducing bench time before first flight
• Designed around a 35cc gasoline engine, which is not included and must be sourced separately
• WWII 'Tarheel Hal' bubble-top livery is factory-applied, replicating a specific P-47D variant with its distinctive one-piece canopy
• Supplied without retracts — fixed gear or aftermarket retracts can be fitted depending on your preference
