The T-28 Trojan is a training aircraft and light ground combat aircraft which was developed as a training aircraft in the 1940s. In the early 1950s, series production began with the 588 kW seven-cylinder Wright R-1300-1A radial engine and two-blade propeller. A total of 1194 of this version were produced before the further development T-28B with the more powerful Wright R-1820-26 engine with 1047 kW power and a three-blade propeller was introduced in 1954. Later there were several variants. For example, the T-28C, which used the same engine as the T-28B and, thanks to a reinforced rear fuselage, airbrakes and arresting hooks, was also suitable for aircraft carriers. It had its maiden flight on 19 September 1955 and was built in 299 copies until 1957. The T-28D Nomad (also AT-28) was a modified A-version with a Wright R-1820-56S engine and six underwing stations for up to 1814 kg weapon load, which was to serve various COIN missions.
The T-28 Trojan in the Amewi Edition is a scale replica of this famous US aircraft with a true-to-the-original paint scheme and combines perfect flight characteristics (6G for beginners, 3D for advanced pilots) with state-of-the-art technology. The model is controlled via all axes (aileron, elevator, sideways, motor) and is self-stabilising in 6G mode. (Gyro) This stabilisation also prevents the model from stalling and only allows a limited angle of the model. Looping, rolling or inverted flight are not possible in this setting. If you switch the model to 3D mode using the high-quality 2.4GHz transmitter, the model is suitable for dynamic aerobatics and allows all standard manoeuvres such as loops, rolls etc. without any problems. However, should something go wrong. In addition to all these features, the model is equipped with a receiver board that allows operation with e.g. Futaba or other 5V S-Bus receivers or DSM receivers with a 3V output. Thus, the model is not dependent on the supplied transmitter and it can be used with an existing transmitter.
Highlights:
Receiver board with 5V output for S-Bus receivers and 3V output for DSM receivers.
True to original paint scheme with good visibility
6G and 3D mode switchable at the transmitter for beginners and advanced pilots
