E-flite Eratix 3D Flat Foamy 860mm BNF-Basic EFL01950 Airplanes B&F Electric

This is a great all-around plane. It looks super cool on the ground and in the air. True 3D enthusiasts would say it's too heavy. It is heavier than my other 3D planes BUT my super light planes require verry still air to enjoy flying. This plane will hover, knife edge and invert as easy as any 3D plane I own and can be flown in less-than-ideal conditions. It will also fly like a traditional sport plane reasonably well. It has massive rudder, aileron and elevator authority. It's great for flying in small places, you can hand launch and land this unit in a single parking spot. It is not a fast plane, and the flight time is a little short but will do a 10-minute+ flight using 850ma 3S pack if throttled conservatively. Using a 2S pack would fly but not ideal.

Good flyin Foamy plane. Excellent at tricks. Has its own flight characteristics, so don't fly it low like your normal cruiser until you get used to the way it flys. I used some packing tape on nose so it wouldn't dent if it hit anything. Also changed the wheels to a slightly larger plastic size for my landing area.

This plane taught me how to fly 3-D. I never thought I would learn to fly 3-D. I always flew slower, flying planes like timbers, cubs, the radians, conscendo. But this plane will teach you how to fly 3-D. It’s so light it barely weighs anything.

Love this plane, but flight time is sssoooo short! Granted, I'm used to flying gliders twenty minutes to an hour or more, but this plane gets about five minutes (or less) per battery. IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST PLANE, I SUGGEST YOU GET SOMETHING DIFFERENT, even if you've flown a simulator for a year. I've flown planes for a couple of years, had expo and rates dialed waaaayyyy down and it was still extremely responsive. Haven't crashed yet, a total blast to fly, but if it were my first plane I would have crashed within the first 5 seconds guaranteed. DEFINITELY A GREAT FIRST PLANE FOR A FIRST 3D. It acts almost identical to the same that is on the realflight simulator.

Been flying for years and have had numerous flat foamie planes. Many were depron or some other foam so having foam safe CA and an accelerant that was foam safe was key for minor repairs. I'm talking about when I was hovering it on the prop and the wind caught it and it flipped onto it's wing - wingtip only. Replacement parts are so easy to come by - get some flat carbon fiber spars and CA and stickers or tape and you'll be fine. Won't be a pretty, but still flies until you are ready for the hanger queen. Assembly took maybe 20 minutes - lots of screws, adjusting and connecting push rods. I picked up the BNF and binding to me NX8 was easy. I tried binding in safe and it works, just not my style. I haven't fussed with flight modes, but the receiver and radio will do it so it's just time. Flying characteristics - watch some videos. The 600 mAh pack is light, very light and it wants to fly that way. Any wind - throw on the 850 and go further forward with the battery and it will fly like it is on rails. No bad traits, it's flat so there is no weird coupling. Knife edge requires almost no input, inverted harriers are so easy, regular are too but it locks in inverted way better. Tons of power on a 3S batt - BNF has a 15A esc, 9x4 prop and it's fine... It'll take off out of your hand, within feet on the ground and land in a short distance or plop. Great plane - a tad on the higher end, but everything is vetted - screw it together and bind. I could have bought at a hobby shop and been flying in under 30 minutes, nice!! RF has the model in it's sim - flys a tad lighter, needs more weight or the wing surface area on the sim seemed too large in comparison to real life. Would recommend, with the plane and all electronics - kind of a no brainer..

Great Plain have owned probably eight of them in the past year. Great plane for beginner I've modified mine substantially first thing you're going to need definitely whether you modify it or not is replace the landing gear if you're going to modify it I would suggest using a 3530 1100 KV OutRunner motor 50 amp ESC 11-in prop and 4S 1100 mAh battery also on all of these planes you will need to replace your L Ron servo they rattle after about three or four flights get yourself a metal servo worth the money other than that it's a great plane I've had a lot of fun over the past year also have put a steering on the rudder and have significantly shortened the landing gear used aluminum rods which go through and Shore up the the wings if you modify it in this manner you will have yourself a ball plain clocked it 62 mph hovers no problem you will need to put a counterweight on the back to get your CG correct it's an incredible plane I just wish Spectrum would take a little bit more pride in their product as far as the landing gear and the servos and the motor plane is a Powerhouse if it were correctly engineered good luck flying have fun

Like the flight performance, downside, it's a very fragile aircraft

It’s a fun flying plane that is easy to control with SAFE on. Flys slow and has no vices other than its heavy for a “foamy”. Plenty of power to get out of trouble. Pros… Pre assembled Well constructed Cons… Heavy than expected Crashes will break definitely something.

Mit diesem Flugzeug ist alles möglich! Von Langsamflug bis 3d fliegen

Excelente avion para practicar 3D!
