E-flite UMX Me 262 30mm EDF Jet 660mm
New from E-flite is the UMX Me 262 30mm EDF R/C Jet. This compact radio-controlled plane tips its cap to the first jet-powered fighter aircraft, the Messerschmitt Me 262.
With its foam construction, this aircraft looks just like its 1:1 counterpart. Featuring twin wing-mounted turbines with 30mm fans, this brushless-powered aircraft can take off from a rolling start or a hand launch.
The landing gear can be used in fixed configuration or removed for a cleaner, more aerodynamic look. With SAFE Select capability, this R/C jet can apply pitch and bank angle limits, auto self-leveling, and easy switch assignments, making it a fun flyer for hobbyists of any skill level.
The UMX Me 262 arrives pre-assembled, pre-painted, and pre-decaled. The only items you'll need before taking to the sky are a 5+ channel DSMX/DSM2-compatible transmitter, a 3S LiPo battery (with IC2 connector), and a battery charger.
