Can it do grass? YES IT CAN!
One of the most important features of an aircraft in Australia is it's ability to take off and land on a grass runway.

Description:
The Mitsubishi A6M Zero was one of the best known and most feared fighters of WWII. The Zero was the tip of the sword of Imperial Japanese Naval Air Service and was used in the Pacific Theatre of War with great success. The Zero is a carrier capable long range range fighter.

FMS have got another winner on their hands. This Zero is great fun to fly and looks awesome in the air. The paint job is great and the retracts and scale 3-blade propeller along with the bomb slung underneath add to the nostalgic feel of this aircraft.

Flight control is excellent at all speeds and the factory installed flaps allow for short takeoffs and easy landings - great plane to fly.

Full range of spare parts are available on request

Extra stuff (for your information):
Please note that all aircraft kits are now double boxed for shipping and the cost of double boxing is now included in the shipping cost. Our courier allows us to place "Fragile" and "Top Load Only" markings on the kit boxes we send with them, so double boxing is usually enough protection for your expensive model. We do offer insurance and a re-delivery (courier will attempt re-delivery of package instead of leaving it) service if you like so please send us an email before placing your order if you wish to have these services.

Required:

Your own radio gear as this is an ARF kit.
4s capable LiPo charger
2 part epoxy or foam safe CA glue with accelerator (we recommend that you use these glues if the kit does not include epoxy)
