Description:
The Lockheed Martin SR-71 Blackbird stands as one of the most legendary aircraft ever created. Developed during the 1960s to outperform every aircraft and missile of its era, the SR-71 set—and still holds—world records for sustained altitude at 85,069 feet and top speed at 2,193.2 mph (Mach 3.3). With the E-flite® SR-71 Blackbird Twin 40mm EDF, RC pilots can now own and fly a scaled replica designed to be both affordable and practical. Compatible with widely available 4S 2200mAh batteries, it features exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X stabilization and optional SAFE Select technology, making this the most approachable SR-71 model to fly yet.
Optional fixed landing gear with a steerable nosewheel enables smooth taxiing, takeoffs, and landings on paved surfaces, while removing the gear unlocks higher speed and improved vertical performance for grass-field operations. Factory-finished and nearly ready to fly straight from the box, this model delivers an authentic Blackbird flying experience unlike anything else in RC aviation.
For decades, aviation fans and RC pilots alike have dreamed of flying an SR-71—and now that dream is achievable. The E-flite® SR-71 Blackbird Twin 40mm EDF arrives mostly pre-assembled and includes a factory-installed control unit with a Spektrum™ receiver featuring AS3X® and optional SAFE® Select technologies. It binds easily to any 5+ channel DSMX®/DSM2® transmitter, and when paired with compatible Spektrum radios using AirWare™ software, provides real-time telemetry such as battery voltage, current draw, and more—using both Smart and non-Smart batteries.
Twin 40mm EDF units powered by brushless outrunner motors work efficiently with common 4S 2200mAh 30+C LiPo batteries, delivering an excellent balance of performance and flight duration. The fully molded EPO airframe includes detailed panel lines and scale surface features, reinforced fuselage chines, and composite strengthening throughout the nose and structure to ensure durability without excessive weight. A rubberized nose cone with pitot tube and snap-in vertical fins—plus an additional set of optional high-visibility red fins—allow easy installation and replacement.
The fixed landing gear, complete with a steerable nosewheel and scale-style tires that replicate the aluminum-infused tires of the full-scale aircraft, supports realistic ground handling. For higher performance, the gear can be removed, allowing pilots to use molded finger grips and the automatic Hand Launch Assist Mode for easy launches and grass landings. In every configuration, the E-flite SR-71 Blackbird Twin 40mm EDF delivers a truly unmatched RC flying experience.
