Description
UMX A-10 Thunderbolt II 30mm EDF BNF Basic with AS3X and SAFE Select
Ref. EFLU6550
The E-flite® UMX™ A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 30mm EDF ultra
micro jet is the most practical and easiest to fly A-10 RC model yet! New
upgrades make this replica of the iconic U.S. Air Force aircraft easier for a
wider variety of experienced pilots to enjoy — including those with limited EDF
experience. The BNF® Basic model’s industry-leading Spektrum™ 2.4GHz technology
binds to your 5+ channel DSMX®/DSM2® transmitter for full 4-channel control,
plus the benefits of exclusive AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select
technologies. It’s 100% factory-assembled and ready to deliver an authentic
A-10 jet flying experience almost immediately. With the A-10 Thunderbolt II
Twin 30mm EDF, you can start flying your first mission within minutes!
Exclusive Technologies
This UMX™ A-10 is equipped with exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X®,
SAFE® Select and telemetry technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth
out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes
it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select
offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-leveling that can
be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this the easiest to fly
Warthog ever! It will also provide real-time flight battery voltage and other
telemetry data to Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e
and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, the NX6, 8 and 10, the iX12, iX20 and
others).
Higher Performance
The factory-installed twin brushless power systems feature larger diameter 30mm fans with more powerful 2S and 3S-compatible outrunner motors. This upgraded power system setup delivers higher performance than the 28mm fans and 2S-compatible motors installed in previous UMX™ models to offer unmatched speed and vertical performance, plus longer-than-average EDF flight times when using the recommended 450–850mAh 30+C LiPo batteries with an IC2® connector.
More Durable
The fully-molded and strengthened airframe includes a carbon
fiber reinforced fuselage and nose. The result is a more durable model that
looks great and is still lightweight to deliver the best possible flight
experience!
Gear Options
You can use the included fixed landing gear with steerable
nose wheel to taxi, take off and land on smooth surfaces. Or you can leave the
landing gear off for more speed and vertical performance plus easy over hand
launches and landings on grass.
Fully-Factory Assembled
The A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 30mm EDF arrives 100%
factory-assembled and ready to fly right out of the box! It’s equipped with
industry-leading Spektrum& 2.4GHz technology that binds to your 5+ channel
DSMX®/DSM2® equipped transmitter so you can be flying within minutes of opening
the box.
With SAFE Select enabled, you get:
- Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
These envelope limits keep the airplane from rolling or
pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.
- Automatic Self-Leveling
The airplane instantly returns to and holds level flight
when the sticks are released and in the center position. It's also helpful for
keeping the wings level during takeoffs/launches and landings.
- Easy Switch Assignment—No Complex Programming Required
The simple procedure for assigning a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any complex programming and takes just a few seconds. For UMX models like this one, SAFE Select is automatically assigned to channel 5 (Gear) so you can turn it on an off with any switch assigned to that channel (switch A by default on most Spektrum computer transmitters).
