The E-flite UMX A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 30mm Electric Ducted Fan Ultra Micro Jet is updated and upgraded for more durability and greater power — while AS3X and optional-use SAFE Select technology make it easier to fly for newer pilots. The Real-World A-10 Thunderbolt II, affectionately called the "Warthog" due to its aggressive look and unique Close Air Support (CAS) capabilities, is one of the most iconic U.S. Air Force aircraft of all time — valued highly for its excellent maneuverability at low speeds and altitude, and for being an accurate and survivable weapons-delivery platform. The BNF Basic model’s Spektrum 2.4GHz technology binds to the 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. The fully-molded airframe features a factory-applied "desert camo" trim scheme and is strengthened with a carbon fiber reinforced fuselage and nose. Factory-installed twin brushless power systems feature more powerful 2S and 3S-compatible out-runner motors with larger diameter 30mm fans, for improved vertical performance and speed compared to other models in its class — plus longer-than-average EDF flight times when using the recommended 450–850mAh LiPo batteries. Use the included fixed landing gear with steerable nose wheel to taxi, take off and land on paved, packed dirt or grass surfaces at large parks and fields. Or leave the landing gear off for more speed and vertical performance plus easy over hand launches and landings on grass. This versatile craft is ready for action!
