Manufacturer Description
The E-flite UMX Conscendo is a scaled-down, ultra-micro version of the Conscendo Evolution 1.5m! As the most powerful, capable, and fun to fly version yet, the Conscendo Evolution took the market by storm and quickly became one of the best-selling and most popular E-flite models ever. It delivered a unique blend of soaring, sport, and aerobatic flight performance that made it a favorite for sport pilots and glider enthusiasts alike. And now, the UMX Conscendo makes it possible to enjoy that same flight experience in more places and smaller spaces from large yards to parks, sports fields, and beyond! It's even more affordable and convenient - while also being easy to fly - which makes it a perfect choice for a wide range of low-time to experienced pilots.
Whether you're a low-time pilot looking for your next airplane after learning to fly with a trainer, or an experienced pilot interested in an ultra-micro sized version of the incredibly popular Conscendo Evolution 1.5m, the E-flite UMX Conscendo is an easy and extremely fun to fly sport aerobatic motor glider that offers a flying experience you simply can't get with any other model! With a 2S LiPo battery, the factory-installed brushless power system - featuring a telemetry-capable ESC, specially-tuned outrunner motor, and folding prop - delivers plenty of thrust for fast climbs to soaring altitude, sport flying, and basic aerobatics. Or, when using a 3S 300mAh battery, it delivers even more speed and thrust for unlimited vertical performance without the need for modifications or upgrades! The composite-reinforced airframe has the strength and stiffness to handle anything experienced pilots will want to do with all that power, performance, and full 4-channel control. Yet the UMX Conscendo is still easy to launch, fly, and land because it features exclusive AS3X and optional-use SAFE Select technologies. Plus, you can enable the optional use flaperons and spoilerons for even more capabilities! Best of all, the UMX Conscendo arrives almost fully factory-assembled and nearly ready to fly right out of the box. Simply install the one-piece wing with the quarter turn thumbscrew, install a charged battery, bind it to your 5+ channel DSMX/DSM2 equipped Spektrum transmitter and you're ready to fly!”
Next Step aircraft, like this one, are the best choice for those who have successfully learned to fly with a trainer and are ready to graduate to their next aircraft. It's also an easy and extremely fun to fly model for experienced pilots too!
Already own a Spektrum transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the 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!
This UMX Conscendo is equipped with exclusive 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 that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make easier to fly!
The UMX Conscendo is equipped with a control unit that includes an ESC and Spektrum receiver that provides real-time flight battery voltage telemetry to compatible Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, iX12 to 20 and others) while you fly.
The factory-installed brushless outrunner motor is specially-tuned to deliver an abundance of thrust with 2S 280-300mAh batteries (a suitable JST-RCY to JST-PH adapter may be required), or more speed and unlimited vertical performance with 3S 300mAh batteries without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
Construction with composite-reinforced EPS results in a lightweight yet stiff and durable airframe. This means the UMX Conscendo can handle high speeds and high energy aerobatics - yet is still light enough to deliver excellent soaring and sport flying performance, plus long flight times up to 15+ minutes with a mix of power on and power off flying. You can even enable the optional-use flaperons and spoilerons for added capabilities!
The UMX Conscendo arrives factory-assembled and nearly ready to fly right out of the box. Simply install the one-piece wing with the quarter turn thumbscrew, install a charged battery, bind it to your 5+ channel DSMX/DSM2 equipped Spektrum transmitter and you're ready to fly!
