Skill Level 2 – Some Experience Required

Skill Level 2 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for RC pilots who already have some experience and the skills to assemble, set up and/or fly similar class models. And although this is the easiest to fly Me 262 model yet, it's not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft for new pilots or first-ever EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) jet model for intermediate to experienced RC pilots. You should have the experience and skills necessary to successfully fly simpler EDF models like the E-flite Habu SS (Super Sport) 50mm or 70mm before attempting to fly the UMX Me 262 Twin 30mm EDF.

Are you new to flying RC (Radio Controlled) aircraft? If you are, the UMX Me 262 is not a suitable first-ever RC model and we recommend learning to fly with one of our purpose-built trainer aircraft such as the E-flite Habu STS (Smart Trainer with SAFE) 70mm EDF (www.horizonhobby.cc/HabuSTSRTF). It's equipped with exclusive and innovative SAFE technology that makes it possible for almost anyone to learn to fly successfully! The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basic version includes almost everything needed to fly (except for a compatible LiPo battery and charger that are sold separately, or together in a money-saving PowerStage bundle) and is a perfect choice if you're a new RC pilot.

Telemetry Capable

The UMX Me 262 is equipped with a control unit/flight controller that includes an ESC and Spektrum receiver that provides real-time flight battery voltage and other telemetry to compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, the iX12 to 20, and others) while you fly.

Higher Performance

The factory-installed twin brushless power systems feature 30mm fans with powerful 3S-compatible outrunner motors. This power system setup delivers higher performance than the 28mm fans and 2S-compatible motors installed in previous UMX EDF models to offer unmatched speed and vertical performance, plus longer than average EDF flight times, when using the recommended 600-850mAh 30+C LiPo batteries with an IC2 connector.

Fully Assembled

The UMX Me 262 arrives 100% factory-assembled and ready to fly right out of the box! It's equipped with industry-leading Spektrum 2.4GHz technology that binds to your 5+ channel DSMX/DSM2 equipped transmitter so you could be flying within minutes of opening the box.

Scale Features

The fully molded airframe features a scale outline with a variety of details including gun ports, a clear canopy with pilot figure, and other scale finishes you'd typically expect to find on larger models.

Gear Options

You can use the included fixed landing gear - with a steerable nose wheel and simulated gear doors/strut covers - to taxi, take off from and land on smooth surfaces. Or you can leave the landing gear off for more speed and vertical performance plus easy hand launches over and landings on grass while utilizing the automatic Hand Launch Assist Mode.

Factory Finished

The factory-applied and fully-painted with decal finish not only looks great but also replicates one of the most unique and complex “camo” trim schemes.

Lightweight Design

Construction with composite-reinforced EPS material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe that's also easily repairable with odorless/foam-safe CA, Foam 2 Foam, epoxy, and other foam-friendly adhesives. Or, in the unfortunate event you damage any airframe parts or components and can't repair them, a full line of replacement/spare parts is readily available.
