Overview
L-19 Bird Dog Olive 1720mm (67.8") Wingspan - ARF from Nexa - NXA1043-002
The L-19 Bird Dog is a liaison and observation aircraft and was the first all-metal fixed-wing aircraft in the United States Army. The name was chosen because it's role was to find the enemy and orbit overhead until artillery or attack planes could be brought to bear. While flying low to the battlefield, the pilot would observe the attack and radio for adjustments, in the manner of a bird dog used by game hunters. The Bird Dog had a lengthy military career in the U.S. and other countries.
What is better than one Nexa L-19? Two Nexa L-19 of course! This is the second color/livery available on the brand new Nexa L-19 Bird Dog. This Nexa plane was recently developed and now available for the first time at the end of 2022. This Nexa L-19 can be built with either electric or gas power and has a large hatch for easy access to either. This L-19 is absolutely full of exceptional scale details such as a working pilot door. Our words cannot do this plane justice. This L-19 would make a great addition to any hangar.

Installed a 4s 6000 and it helped, but still did not have the take off thrust it needed. A 6s is big for the aircraft, but it solved the issue. Next makes a really nice kit, I just ordered another one!
