THE ULTIMATE ULTIMATE
With its apparent lines and exciting efficiency, the Ultimate biplane — in major and in RC design form — has actually given pilots everywhere regard for the aerobatic abilities of an aircraft with two wings. Gordon Cost built and flew the first 10 Dash "Ultimate" style in the mid 1980s and flew the 10-300 in the 1988 World Aerobatic Championships. E-flite® debuted the Ultimate2 in 2015, earning appreciation from RC pilots worldwide for its strong aerobatic efficiency and 3D abilities. With the Ultimate 3D, E-flite® has actually upgraded and upgraded that tested airframe to modern-day standards. Its new power system offers much better THREE efficiency and BALLISTIC power with a FOUR battery. Higher-torque and higher-speed metal-geared servos keep you firmly in control with the extra power. It's also geared up with a 60-amp Spektrum™ Bird™ Smart ESC, and the BNF® Basic version is geared up with an AR637TA receiver that offers full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, present, temperature and more – together with motor reversing for unique ground handling and other abilities – when utilizing compatible transmitters.

The unrivaled stability and locked-in feel of unique AS3X® technology

4 (4) factory-installed higher-torque, higher-speed, metal-geared servos with ball-link equipped linkages

Tool-free wing assembly with quick-release hardware for convenient storage and transportation

Light-weight yet resilient composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction

Factory-finished with an updated trim scheme including vibrant graphics





GO MILD OR WILD!
Equipped with the latest modern-day innovations and upgrades, the E-flite® Ultimate 3D biplane raises the bar for scale, sport and precision aerobatic flying — plus full-blown 3D efficiency too! More powerful, faster metal-geared servos and ball-link equipped linkages provide positive, exact control while the beveled hinge lines make it possible for the control surfaces to deflect to high angles for extreme 3D abilities. The new power system, with a specially-tuned motor and prop, works with THREE AND with FOUR batteries to provide extra power and limitless vertical capability — no modifications needed. It also includes unique Smart Innovation through the Spektrum™ Bird™ 60-amp Smart ESC, and the BNF® Basic version is geared up with an AR637TA receiver that offers full-range telemetry including real-time battery voltage, present, temperature and more to compatible transmitters. Plus, with 7+ channel transmitters, the optional-use motor reversing function adds unique ground handling and other distinct abilities. The composite-reinforced, hollow-core EPO construction offers a lightweight but resilient 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 requires to charge a battery due to the fact that no glue is needed for final assembly, and installation/removal of the wings is tool-free for simple storage and transportation. This makes it the most convenient and best option for almost any pilot trying to find their first or next biplane!

Ultimate Capabilities
Diagonal hinge lines make it possible to deflect every control surface area to high angles for exceptional control and extreme 3D aerobatic capability. Vortex generators also boost the efficiency and handling overall so you can fly as mild or as wild as you'd like — whether you prefer scale, sport, precision aerobatic or full-blown 3D flying.
 



Ultimate Power
The factory-installed brushless power system includes a 60-amp Spektrum™ Bird™ Smart ESC plus a specially-tuned motor and prop that provide an abundance of thrust with a THREE LiPo battery, or extra power and limitless vertical efficiency with a FOUR battery without the requirement for any modifications or upgrades.
 







Ultimate Durability
Composite-reinforced, hollow-core construction with EPO product provides a lightweight yet resilient airframe. The Ultimate 3D is also geared up with higher-torque, higher-speed, metal-geared servos and ball-link equipped linkages for added durability plus more positive and exact control.
 



Ultimate Convenience
No glue is needed for final assembly, and you can have the Ultimate 3D ready to fly in less time than it requires to charge a battery. Although it's conveniently sized to fit completely assembled in almost any vehicle, installation and removal of the wings is tool-free for simple storage and transportation. Pins easily secure the struts and thumbscrews secure the wings to the fuselage.
 







Smart Technology
The Ultimate 3D is geared up with a special Spektrum™ Bird™ Smart ESC that can supply a range of real-time power system related telemetry information including motor RPM, present, battery voltage and more through 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 includes optional-use motor reversing to use unique ground handling and other abilities (7+ channel transmitter needed for reversing).
 



Bind-N-Fly® Basic Completion Level Advantage
Currently own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly® (BNF®) aircraft make entering the air quickly and with the very best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly!
 









Exclusive Technologies
The Ultimate 3D is geared up with unique Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to ravel the results of wind and turbulence to provide a locked-in feel that makes it look like you're flying a much bigger aircraft. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limitations together with automatic self-leveling that can be switched on and off at the flip of a switch! And if you don't wish to make it possible for the SAFE Select functions, just bind the receiver typically and only AS3X will be active.
