The Phoenix Models PH170 A-26 Invader is an impressive large-scale twin-engine warbird that faithfully recreates one of the most successful attack aircraft ever built. Combining outstanding scale realism with modern construction and excellent flight performance, this 90.5-inch ARF is designed for experienced pilots looking for an impressive centrepiece at the flying field.

Built using lightweight laser-cut balsa and plywood construction, the A-26 Invader offers exceptional strength while keeping flying weight to a minimum. Its large 2300mm wingspan provides excellent stability, predictable handling and an impressive presence both in the air and on the ground.

The model comes factory-equipped with electric retractable landing gear featuring CNC-machined suspension metal struts, giving smooth operation and authentic scale appearance. Functional split flaps improve slow-speed handling and provide realistic take-offs and landings, while the detailed cockpit, scale pilot figure and accurate panel lines complete the highly realistic military finish.

Designed for either twin glow engines or twin electric power systems, the PH170 provides exceptional versatility. Whether powered by two .46–.55 two-stroke glow engines or twin brushless electric motors, the Invader delivers smooth, reliable performance and authentic twin-engine operation.

The practical two-piece wing simplifies transportation and assembly, while the included quick-connect air hose system and premium hardware package reduce build time and make field setup straightforward.

If you're looking for a large, highly detailed twin-engine warbird with exceptional flying characteristics and factory-installed electric retracts, the Phoenix Models A-26 Invader is an outstanding choice.
