DeHavilland Vampire 90mm EDF Composite 1410mm (ARF) (AU Warehouse)

Description

The de Havilland DH.100 Vampire was a British jet fighter commissioned by the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. Following the Gloster Meteor, it was the second jet fighter to enter service with the RAF. Although it arrived too late to see combat during the war, the Vampire served with front line RAF squadrons until 1953 and continued in use as a trainer until 1966. The Vampire also served with many air forces worldwide, setting aviation firsts and records. Almost 3,300 Vampires were built, a quarter of them under license in other countries. The Vampire design was also developed into the de Havilland Venom fighter-bomber as well as naval Sea Vampire variants.

Our DH Vampire comes almost ready to fly and is designed around a 90mm EDF unit powered by a 6~10S Lipoly battery. It is perfect for a pilot looking for something different. The model comes with fixed gear but is retract ready.  The airframe of the Vampire is molded fiberglass composite for the fuselage/tailbooms with the wings and horizontal tail being of built up balsa and plywood. All wooden surfaces come pre-covered in plastic film.

Since this is a almost ready to fly model, all you need to do is complete the final assembly, install your components, and fly. All the difficult building and painting has been done for you. A few evenings of work is all that is needed to get the Vampire ready for its first sortie.
