Twister 1/48 Scale MD 500 Helicopter (Civilian) Flybarless Radio Controlled Aircraft

Sharing the same revolutionary flight stabilisation system as Twister’s highly acclaimed Ninja 250 and BO-105 – not to mention the celebrated novice and advanced flight modes, auto take-off and land functionality, and altitude hold feature – the new Twister MD 500 is every bit as stable, as locked in and as easy to fly.

Making supreme use of a highly efficient duration-optimised four blade rotor head, the MD 500 delivers an outstanding 12-minute flight duration whilst offering the valuable peace of mind that can only be appreciated with damage-limiting auto shutdown programming. And as if that’s not enough, all this ground-breaking technology is cloaked in a beautifully-detailed 1/48-scale MD 500 body. In short, it looks fantastic, it’s rock-solid, perfect for beginners, great fun for experienced pilots and, to cap it all, it’s got Ninja durability at its core.
