THE ULTIMATE ULTIMATE
With its apparent lines and thrilling efficiency, the Ultimate biplane — in full-blown and in RC design kind — has actually provided pilots all over respect for the aerobatic capabilities of an airplane with 2 wings. Gordon Price built and flew the first 10 Dash "Ultimate" design in the mid 1980s and flew the 10-300 in the 1988 World Aerobatic Championships. E-flite® debuted the Ultimate2 in 2015, making appreciation from RC pilots worldwide for its strong aerobatic efficiency and 3D capabilities. With the Ultimate 3D, E-flite® has actually upgraded and updated that tested airframe to modern-day standards. Its new power system provides much better THREE efficiency and BALLISTIC power with a 4S battery. Higher-torque and higher-speed metal-geared servos keep you firmly in control with the additional power. It's also geared up with a 60-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC, and the BNF® Standard version is geared up with an AR637TA receiver that provides full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, current, temperature level and more – along with motor reversing for unique ground handling and other capabilities – when utilizing compatible transmitters.

Lightweight yet long lasting composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction

Factory-finished with an upgraded trim scheme including vivid graphics





GO MILD OR WILD!
Equipped with the latest modern-day developments and upgrades, the E-flite® Ultimate 3D biplane raises the bar for scale, sport and precision aerobatic flying — plus full-scale 3D efficiency too! Stronger, much faster metal-geared servos and ball-link equipped linkages deliver favorable, exact control while the beveled hinge lines make it possible for the control surface areas to deflect to high angles for severe 3D capabilities. The new power system, with a specially-tuned motor and prop, is compatible with THREE AND with 4S batteries to deliver additional power and unlimited vertical ability — no modifications required. It also features unique Smart Innovation by means of the Spektrum™ Avian™ 60-amp Smart ESC, and the BNF® Standard version is geared up with an AR637TA receiver that provides full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, current, temperature level and more to compatible transmitters. Plus, with 7+ channel transmitters, the optional-use motor reversing function adds unique ground handling and other distinct capabilities. The composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction provides a light-weight but long lasting airframe that's factory-finished in a striking, ready-to-admire trim scheme. Best of all you can have the Ultimate 3D flight-ready in less time than it requires to charge a battery since no glue is required for final assembly, and installation/removal of the wings is tool-free for easy storage and transport. This makes it the most convenient and best choice for almost any pilot trying to find their first or next biplane!

Ultimate Capabilities

Ultimate Capabilities
Diagonal hinge lines make it possible to deflect every control surface to high angles for impressive control and severe 3D aerobatic ability. Vortex generators also improve the efficiency and handling general so you can fly as mild or as wild as you'd like — whether you choose scale, sport, precision aerobatic or full-scale 3D flying.
 

Ultimate Power

Ultimate Power
The factory-installed brushless power system features a 60-amp Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop that deliver an abundance of thrust with a THREE LiPo battery, or additional power and unlimited vertical efficiency with a 4S battery without the requirement for any modifications or upgrades.
 





Ultimate Resilience

Ultimate Durability
Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO product delivers a light-weight yet long lasting airframe. The Ultimate 3D is also geared up with higher-torque, higher-speed, metal-geared servos and ball-link equipped linkages for added resilience plus more favorable and exact control.
 

Ultimate Convenience

Ultimate Convenience
No glue is required for final assembly, and you can have the Ultimate 3D all set to fly in less time than it requires to charge a battery. Although it's easily sized to fit fully assembled in practically any car, setup and removal of the wings is tool-free for easy storage and transport. Pins quickly secure the struts and thumbscrews secure the wings to the fuselage.
 





Smart Innovation

Smart Technology
The Ultimate 3D is geared up with a special Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC that can offer a range of real-time power system associated telemetry data including motor RPM, current, battery voltage and more by means of compatible receivers (including the AR637TA) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, the DX9, iX12, iX20 and others) while you fly. It also features optional-use motor reversing to provide unique ground handling and other capabilities (7+ channel transmitter required for reversing).
 

Bind-N-Fly Basic Conclusion Level Advantage

Bind-N-Fly® Basic Completion Level Advantage
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly® (BNF®) aircraft make entering into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of package with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver set up so all you require to do is bind the receiver to a suitable transmitter, end up any final assembly, and fly!
 





Exclusive Technologies

Exclusive Technologies

Exclusive Technologies
The Ultimate 3D is geared up with unique Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to ravel the impacts of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger plane. Optional-use SAFE Select provides pitch and bank angle limits along with automated self-leveling that can be switched on and off at the flip of a switch! And if you do not wish to enable the SAFE Select features, merely bind the receiver generally and just AS3X will be active.
