    Product Description

    The B-17 Flying Fortress remains one of the most famous allied bombers of WW2.  Although it served in every theatre of the war, it was in the European Theatre of Operations (ETO) with the renowned 8th Air Force in particular, that this sturdy and well-armed heavy bomber flew its way into the history books.

    Building on the success of our original HobbyKing "Memphis Belle" model we have redesigned this huge 1875mm wingspan warbird and now bring to you the best flying and best-looking rendition of this iconic heavy bomber available anywhere in this size. 

    Our fantastic model is simple and fast to assemble right out of the box with all of the servos and ESCs pre-installed.  It is made from EPO foam, so it's as tough as you would expect and as the one-piece wing is removable, it is also very practical to transport.

    The pre-fitted electric scale wheels retract forward like the real aircraft and are large enough to tackle almost any surface.  There is also plenty of power on tap from the four upgraded 850kv brushless motors. Counter-rotating props make zero torque, smooth take off's, the order of the day and with pre-fitted split flaps, landings are also stress-free.

    But it's the attention to detail on this version that is impressive.  Panel lines have been reduced and two new accurate scale color schemes are now available.  Olive drab/grey and overall silver. These two schemes represent the vast majority of B-17's that went into action and as an additional feature, we've also included a choice of two 8th Air Force decal sets for each color scheme as well as an optional chin turret so that you can create either an early "F" or later "G" variant. 

    As a Flying Fortress, our model also bristles with guns, with top and ball turrets as well as tail, nose, and waist gun positions.  Dummy Wright Cyclone engines are finished with three-blade counter-rotating scale props and hubs and finally, working navigation & landing lights add to the overall realism level of this impressive model.

    Beneath the surface, our B-17 has been beefed up with additional wing bracing and of course, she has been test flown extensively and it's in the air that this model really comes into its own.

    You will be struck at how easy it is to fly, almost like a powered glider at times and even though it's more than capable of performing non-scale aerobatics including loops and rolls, it is at slower speeds that it looks every bit the heavy bomber.

    With its impressive wingspan, low passes translate into a real presence in the air and the sound of those four props driving it forward just adds to the experience.

    Our B-17 is a scale pilot's dream model. It's a big airplane that looks great, flies beautifully, and definitely has the "wow" factor that will have heads turning wherever and whenever you fly it.

    Very worthwhile.

    This is a perfect plane for a scale flyer and anyone that loves historical aircraft. Easy to assemble and comes with a couple different model options and a couple different livery options.

    No replacement motor.

    Feb 19, 2025

    Love the plane but for some reason they don’t supply replacement motors. I’m in need of one engine. Contacted HK only to be told they don’t carry a replacement motor for the B17.

    Overall review: 4 and 3/4 stars.

    Oct 07, 2023

    Beautiful aircraft, manual brief and not fully detailed, found online videos a great help covering details not in the manual. Only issue was missing decals.

    Great buy

    Jan 20, 2023

    The plane looks fantastic in the air. Building it is tricky if you don’t follow the right steps. I only have two “but” the center of gravity is not well explained. And it does take time to reassemble after transport. Too many wires, it would be great if there was a single plug. Other than that it’s a fabulous looking bird.

    CG is Wrong!

    Jan 09, 2023

    The recommended CG is show on the top view in the manual as being at the back of the outer engine nacelles. That would be at 138 -145mm. But the figures shown there and on the website are 38-45. The model flies nose-heavy even at 140mm. (Lots of up trim to fly level and as it slows down to land it takes more and more up elevator to keep the nose from dropping.) I had to add 3 ounces of lead to the tail to get the B-17 to fly normally. This error needs to be corrected!

    OK

    Mar 30, 2022

    The airplane is a great design and construction, but attention to detail assembling is lacking. I had missing parts that should have been assembled. Also no instruction manual included and very poor english translations throughout it. Someone fluent in english should re write the manual. No instruction where to plug channel 7 into the 6 channel transmitter.

    Great B17

    Mar 27, 2022

    Nice detail, placed receiver on center wing with wires. Flys easy and stable. Only need to put wing and fuselage together with 2 bolts and connect 2 servos. Flies great. Plenty of power with two 2200ma batteries
