Description

In the early 2000s, "flat foamy" models were extremely popular because they could be scratch built from foam sheets you could buy in many stores. Today, most foam models are fully-molded sport and scale aircraft – and few can match the unique capabilities and performance of flat foam models, especially those designed and built for aerobatic plus 3D flying! The E-flite Eratix 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 860mm is perfect for experienced pilots who already build and fly flat foam models, intermediate pilots who are interested in them but don't want to undertake a complicated build, and less experienced pilots who have always wanted to try but were intimidated by the extra effort and skills required to buy, build and fly such a model. The Eratix 3D FF is the easiest-to-fly, most convenient, and best value in a flat foamy model yet! Overview The E-flite Eratix 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 860mm offers the aggressive aerobatic plus smooth sport and slow-flying performance of similar class models – without all the hassles of buying components for and building one! It bolts/snaps together and can be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery compared to the glue, tape, and many hours it usually takes to assemble other "flat foamy" aircraft. Its lightweight yet extremely durable EPP airframe is mostly factory-assembled and includes a factory-installed power system and servos. The 3S compatible brushless motor is matched with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Smart ESC. The BNF Basic version is equipped with an AR630 receiver to deliver real-time telemetry data along with AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. It's small enough and light enough to be flown indoors in gymnasiums and other similar spaces or outdoors in yards, parks, and sports fields, making it a versatile addition to the hangar for a wide variety of pilots! In The Box Needed to Complete Smart Technology The Eratix 3D FF is equipped with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Smart ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data, including motor RPM, current, battery voltage, and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – via compatible receivers (including the AR630) and Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6, 8 and 10, iX12, iX14, iX20, and others) while you fly. Includes Spektrum AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel. SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits and automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch. The factory-installed brushless power system features a specially-tuned outrunner motor. This power system delivers plenty of thrust for unlimited vertical and 3D performance with 3S batteries! Use 600mAh batteries to keep the weight down, or up to 850mAh batteries for longer flight times. Like other flat foamy models, the Eratix 3D FF is capable of slow cruising, smooth sport flying, basic aerobatics, and even aggressive 3D flying — all in the same flight! It offers a truly "mild to wild" flight experience intermediate to experienced pilots will appreciate whether flying indoors in gymnasiums or outdoors in yards, parks, sports fields, and beyond. Unlike other similar flat foamy models only available as kits without power and control components, the Eratix 3D FF arrives factory-assembled with the power system, servos, and the receiver (BNF Basic version only) installed. All you need to do is finish some quick and easy final bolt/snap-together assembly – without glue, tape, or special tools – and you'll be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery! Construction with carbon fiber and composite-reinforced, high-density EPP delivers a lightweight yet stiff and durable airframe. In the unfortunate event you damage any airframe parts or components and can't repair them, a full line of replacement/spare parts is readily available. ADVANCING ELECTRIC FLIGHT E-flite aircraft are developed by experts who love electric power and flying as much as you. They know the kind of quality and performance you desire most and combine exacting standards in design with the best materials to build state-of-the-art aircraft – from top-of-the-line trainers to a wide range of sport and scale models.

  • Fun to fly!
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. ... show more

  • Super Fun
If you are new to Flying RC or maybe you want to get into 3D flying this is a great plane. Make sure you get the proper batteries with the IC2 connectors or the proper adapter. Flys great with both a 650mah and 850mah batteries. Also I would recommend grabbing some Foam Safe CA or glue or tape. It’s a great little plane but of course if your 3ding you may crash. ... show more

  • Excellent trick plane!
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. ... show more

  • For an advanced beginner or better, not for a first time flyer, totally fun, buy a few batteries!
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. ... show more

  • Great plane to learn 3D with.
The lighter flat foamies are easier to learn on but the Eratix is my preferred model for 3D. It makes the transition to a bigger model much easier. The super light flat foamies are like flying a maple leaf. I’ve had two Eratix and both have had two servos fail. Both rudder servos failed and one my first one the aileron servo failed, the elevator servo on the second failed. I bought a twisted hobbies and went right back to the Eratix. The Twisted Hobbies is so light that you can’t fly it in any wind. I really wanted to like it but it’s over priced and the quality was not good. Putting the twisted hobbies together was not fun and I enjoy working on stuff. The landing gear didn’t fit right and I just feel ripped off from Twisted Hobbies. ... show more

  • Great plane for BNF - beginner or skilled 3D!
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.. ... show more

  • Receiver did not come with as3x or safe.
Pros: good flight time Plenty of power Easy to fly and good 3d. Very good at doing stunts. Affordable. Cons: wings are flimsy and have broken off many times. Have to assemble it. Receiver did not work properly on mine. BNF, no transmitter. Battery holder could be in a batter spot or hold the battery better. I did return this because of the receiver. I will update when it gets here. Update: I have gotten my replacement and it looks like it has been used. Wheels were scratched and the receiver did have safe but no as3x. The range was also less than $200 ft!!! First flight it flew great but then I went a little far and it ran out of range! Disappointing. I’d get the PNP or get one of if horizon hobby or a hobby shop. Over all summary: great plane, don’t buy on Amazon. ... show more
