The A-10 gets its name from its predecessor, the P-47 Thunderbolt. The A-10 is what I call a blue-collar jet; it’s no beauty but like the P-47, when it’s time to get to work it excels at providing close cover for ground troops and dispatching ground targets such as tanks and bunkers. The A-10 features armor plating to protect its pilot and critical flight control systems and rugged landing gear so it can operate from a variety of facilities. ​The FMS A-10 PNP model includes almost everything required to get airborne. You need only supply a 6-channel receiver and a 6S 3300mAh flight battery. The A-10 is constructed of high-density foam painted in black, white, and gray artic camo and is reinforced with carbon fiber and plastic where additional strength is needed.
The plug-in wings feature flaps, retracts, and a lighting system that’s attached to the fuselage with a handy multi-function plug. Twin in-runner motors and a pair of 80-amp speed controls turning 12-blade fans provide power. Despite being equipped with nine servos, lights, and three electric retract units, everything plugs into a central control board so that the A-10 requires only a basic 6-channel radio to operate all the gadgets.
Although the FMS A-10 is very easy to assemble, it’s a high-performance twin ducted fan jet that is intended for more experienced pilots.
