See the similarities.

World Models does a number of different Ultimates with exactly that same decoration layout. I've got a WM 40size that looks to have the dimensions of yours. A number of minor differences are present, like the wing servo placement. But yours could be an earlier issue of the same one I have. And the paint design is just about exact except for color choices.

The iron on pieces were cut from the same templates.

The attached is WM's slightly smaller electric that matches my 40size glow Ultimate.

If it is the World Models plane, someone has changed out some of the hardware. The control surface horns and linkage do not appear to be World Models stuff. I think there were some other companies out of China copying these airplanes so you could have one of those or you have a genuine WM plane with different hardware.
