Introduction
The A-10 Thunderbolt II, passionately called the "Warthog" due to its aggressive appearance and distinct Close Air Assistance (CAS) capabilities, is one of the most renowned U.S. Air Force aircraft of perpetuity — valued extremely for its outstanding maneuverability at low speeds and elevation, and for being a precise and survivable weapons-delivery platform. With its cost effective and useful ultra micro size, the updated and updated E-flite® UMX™ A-10 Twin 30mm EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) jet now makes it possible for more RC pilots to fly an exciting "Hog" reproduction in more places! It's also more long lasting and more effective, with a stronger, carbon-fiber reinforced nose and airframe and a 2S and 3S-compatible power system matched to 30mm fans. This Bind-N-Fly® Fundamental aircraft comes equipped with unique Spektrum™ AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies and provides real-time battery voltage telemetry to suitable transmitters, making it much easier than ever for more pilots to fly and enjoy.

Overview
The E-flite® UMX™ A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 30mm EDF ultra micro jet is the most useful and simplest to fly A-10 RC model yet! New upgrades make this reproduction of the renowned U.S. Air Force aircraft much easier for a broader range of knowledgeable pilots to enjoy — consisting of those with restricted EDF experience. The BNF® Fundamental model's industry-leading Spektrum™ 2.4GHz innovation binds to your 5+ channel DSMX®/DSM2® transmitter for complete 4-channel control, plus the benefits of unique AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. It's 100% factory-assembled and prepared to deliver a genuine A-10 jet flying experience nearly immediately. The fully-molded airframe features a factory-applied "desert camo" trim plan and is strengthened with a carbon fiber reinforced fuselage and nose. Factory-installed twin brushless power systems feature more effective TWO and 3S-compatible outrunner motors with larger diameter 30mm fans, for enhanced vertical efficiency and speed compared to other designs in its class — plus longer-than-average EDF flight times when utilizing the recommended 450–850mAh LiPo batteries. Utilize the included fixed landing gear with steerable nose wheel to taxi, remove and arrive at paved, jam-packed dirt or turf surfaces at big parks and fields. Or leave the landing gear off for more speed and vertical efficiency plus easy over hand launches and landings on turf. With the A-10 Thunderbolt II Twin 30mm EDF, you can begin flying your first objective within minutes!





 




Exclusive Technologies

Exclusive Technologies
This UMX™ A-10 is equipped with unique Spektrum™ AS3X®, SAFE® Select and telemetry technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes it appear like you're flying a much larger aircraft. Optional-use SAFE Select uses pitch and bank angle limitations in addition to automated self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this the simplest to fly Warthog ever! It will also provide real-time flight battery voltage and other telemetry information to Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (consisting of the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, the NX6, 8 and 10, the iX12, iX20 and others).
 





Greater performance

Higher Efficiency
The factory-installed twin brushless power systems feature larger diameter 30mm fans with more effective TWO and 3S-compatible outrunner motors. This updated power system setup provides higher efficiency than the 28mm fans and 2S-compatible motors installed in previous UMX™ designs to provide unrivaled speed and vertical efficiency, plus longer-than-average EDF flight times when utilizing the recommended 450–850mAh 30+C LiPo batteries with an IC2® port.

 

More Long lasting

More Durable
The fully-molded and strengthened airframe includes a carbon fiber reinforced fuselage and nose. The outcome is a more long lasting model that looks excellent and is still lightweight to deliver the best possible flight experience!
