I love RC ultra-micro parkflyers. They are so convenient; you can fly them almost anywhere, parks, baseball diamonds, parking lots, some of them even in your backyard. They are also relatively inexpensive and easy to store, thanks to their small sizes. The new ones made out of EPP or EPO foams are quite resilient and almost indestructible (unless you manage to fly them into a tree or under a moving car).
I am especially enamored of World War II mini warbirds, since they harken back to a very active time in aviation history. Previously, I have reviewed three 400mm wingspan ready-to-fly (RTF) mini warbirds, two from Eachine (F4U Corsair and T-28 Trojan) and another one from Volantex RC (P51D Mustang). In case you have not watched my reviews of these mini warbirds, here are the links:

When I saw this Curtiss P-40 Warhawk mini clone with 384mm wingspan from WLtoys/XK, I had to buy it. I found it least expensive at AliExpress from the seller “Lynette Store” (this following link is NOT an affiliated link; I am just providing it for your information and convenience):

There was a $5 store coupon when I placed the order, and the total I paid was $53.22 shipped to my door (to United States). Considering that this is a ready-to-fly (RTF) package that comes with everything you need (except the four AA batteries for the transmitter), it is an amazing deal in my opinion, IF it flies well.
In this first video, I am doing a “tailgate review” of this mini warbird. Is it going to live up to my expectations and perform as well as the previous mini warbirds from Eachine and Volantex RC? You have to watch the video!
