B-17 Flying Fortress - 1/32 - Motors, Sound & Lights set - Taxiway (Generation III)
Product Details
Circuit: MSM-2xSpk-R
Email: Military Airplane


This electronic set is now upgraded to Generation III, meaning

  • Very handy and more reliable JST connectors. Once plugged, it is plugged.
  • Even once the model is completed, you can still remove the wings for transportation, thanks to the wing hubs.
  • As long the circuit remains accessible, the configuration will be upgradable to Generation IV (Full remote control via Android Smartphone)
  • and so on ...

The configuration reproduces one by one the different steps from the crew getting on board till the roaring of the Pratt & Whitney R-1690 Hornet radial engines engines before take off, including the full navigation, landing and cockpit-Cabin-Battle stations lights system.

Our program is based on original soundtracks recorded at the Yankee Air Museum (Detroit, USA) by the restoration team who has restored, maintain and flys B-17G serial number 44-85829 'Yankee Lady' 'Yankee Lady' (see our web page dedicated to Kai Wolter). The circuit board has been programmed accordingly and starts-up the 4 different engines.
