E-flite SNJ-5/AT-6 Texan 1.5m BNF Basic with AS3X+ and SAFE Select

The E-flite SNJ-5 / AT-6 TEXAN 1.5 m BNF Basic is a beautifully detailed replica of the legendary WWII advanced trainer. Known as the “Pilot Maker”, the Texan trained thousands of allied pilots before they transitioned to front-line fighters. This modern E-flite version combines accurate scale presence with today’s advanced Spektrum Smart and SAFE technology, delivering a rewarding flying experience for intermediate to experienced pilots.

With its authentic proportions, functional flaps, electric retracts, and high-power brushless motor, the SNJ-5 / AT-6 TEXAN flies as good as it looks. It offers stable, predictable handling enhanced by AS3X stabilisation, while optional SAFE Select mode provides self-levelling and bank-angle limits for added confidence during take-offs, circuits, and landings.
