THE ULTIMATE ULTIMATE
With its unmistakable lines and exhilarating efficiency, the Ultimate biplane — in full-scale and in RC model kind — has actually offered pilots all over regard for the aerobatic capabilities of an aircraft with 2 wings. Gordon Cost developed and flew the very 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, earning praise 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 requirements. Its new power system offers much better 3S efficiency and BALLISTIC power with a FOUR battery. Higher-torque and higher-speed metal-geared servos keep you strongly in control with the extra power. It's also equipped with a 60-amp Spektrum™ Bird™ Smart ESC, and the BNF® Basic version is equipped with an AR637TA receiver that offers full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, current, temperature and more – together with motor reversing for unique ground handling and other capabilities – when using suitable transmitters.

GO MILD OR WILD!
Equipped with the current modern-day developments and upgrades, the E-flite® Ultimate 3D biplane raises the bar for scale, sport and precision aerobatic flying — plus all-out 3D efficiency too! Stronger, faster metal-geared servos and ball-link equipped linkages deliver favorable, precise control while the beveled hinge lines make it possible for the control surfaces to deflect to high angles for extreme 3D capabilities. The new power system, with a specially-tuned motor and prop, is compatible with 3S AND with 4S batteries to deliver extra power and limitless vertical capability — no adjustments needed. It also features exclusive Smart Technology via the Spektrum™ Bird™ 60-amp Smart ESC, and the BNF® Basic version is equipped with an AR637TA receiver that offers full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, current, temperature and more to suitable 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 building and construction provides a lightweight but long lasting airframe that's factory-finished in a striking, ready-to-admire trim scheme. Most importantly you can have the Ultimate 3D flight-ready in less time than it takes to charge a battery since no glue is needed for final assembly, and installation/removal of the wings is tool-free for easy storage and transport. This makes it the simplest and finest option for almost any pilot searching for their very first or next biplane!
