This is how HobbyKing describes this legendary RC Bush Plane:

"The Tundra has firmly established itself in the RC community and has now become the go to model for most RC pilots. From intermediate pilots to the more experienced flier this plane will do it all. The Tundra is an extremely versatile plane that is great fun to fly and is highly entertaining for all pilots with its excellent aerobatic potential, STOL flying ability and all round toughness.

The Tundra V2 has had further improvements over the upgraded original version. Vortex generators have now been added to the leading edge of the wing to increase the stability at slow speeds. The undercarriage is now more secure and easier to install thanks to machine screws and brass inserts, the plastic landing gear cross brace mount is now made of metal for improved durability. Also included is a newly designed battery tray. The V2 still retains the improved wing connectors, wing mount, upgraded motor and Aerostar 40 amp ESC with reverse.

Whether it is flying from rough fields, water, snow or sand, the Tundra takes it all on with ease. The Tundra has a wide flight envelope making it ideal for FPV flying, aerobatics, glider towing, candy dropping or just good old-fashioned super STOL slow flying,

The tough EPO foam construction is beautifully finished and the Tundra design has a purposeful rugged look. Its lightweight design coupled with a powerful brushless set-up instantly gives you a feeling of confidence on the sticks as quickly as it puts a smile on your face.

This rugged and reliable plane can also get into those tight and hard to land places with its huge flaps, vortex generators and extreme STOL performance. The large main wheels make it easy to land just about anywhere. Swap out the wheels for the supplied floats and you'll be flying from lakes, streams and other waterways.

A quick change to the included FPV canopy will give you more extreme fun flying. More excitement can be found utilizing the built-in tow fitting for towing your friend’s gliders to the best thermals.

Simply put the Tundra is an immense amount of fun to fly and you will be in the air very quickly due the very straightforward and speedy assembly process. Take on the very best mother nature can throw at you and still come up smiling. With the Tundra, there are no limits!
