Air Tractor ag and utility airplanes have earned a reputation for friendly handling, incredible capabilities, and unmatched versatility. Those qualities carry over to the E-flite® UMX™ (Ultra Micro eXtreme) Air Tractor, and along with exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies, make it a perfect scale low-wing model for intermediate to experienced RC pilots. The specially-tuned motor and 3-blade prop provide fantastic scale and sport aerobatic flight performance with 2S 280–300mAh LiPo batteries, or you can install a 3S battery for more power and unlimited vertical without the need for any modifications or upgrades. Functional flaps improve slow-speed handling while also offering Short Take Off and Landing (STOL) capabilities. And because of its convenient ultra-micro size, it can be flown in more places and smaller spaces including many yards, parks, and sports fields, while the oversized tires allow it to fly from paved, dirt, gravel and even some grass surfaces. The factory-applied and fully painted finish provides excellent visibility along with striking scale looks that are accented by LED navigation, strobe and landing lights. Best of all, it arrives 100% factory assembled and ready to fly right out of the box, plus the box includes a handle so it's perfect to use for safe and convenient storage/transport of the model. The E-flite UMX Air Tractor delivers a unique flying experience a wide range of pilots will enjoy, even if it's your first scale or low-wing model!
This model is equipped with Horizon Hobby and Spektrum exclusive AS3X (Artificial Stabilization – 3-aXis) and optional-use SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) Select technologies, and when SAFE Select is turned on using the mode switch (B on the Spektrum InterLink DX controller) it offers:
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 and landings.
