Fly one of the most distinctive and iconic racers of aviation's Golden Age with the E-Flite Gee Bee R-2 1.0m. This isn't just a model; it's a high-performance replica of the famous "teardrop" racer that dominated circuits in the 1930s. Unlike the difficult-to-fly original, this modern RC version is equipped with exclusive AS3X and SAFE Select technologies, smoothing out the wind and offering flight envelope protection that makes piloting this unique aircraft a dream for intermediate pilots and up.

Powered by a potent 4S-compatible brushless power system, this Gee Bee is capable of blistering speeds topping 100 MPH in a dive, delivering the adrenaline rush of air racing right to your local field. It is packed with scale details like flying wires, a pilot figure, and a simulated radial engine, all while offering the convenience of modern Smart telemetry via the installed Avian 70A ESC. With fast, glue-free assembly, you can go from the box to the flight line in less time than it takes to charge a battery. Experience the thrill of a racing legend with the stability and precision of modern E-Flite technology.
