E-Flite Micro B-2 Spirit of America Twin 30mm EDF BNF Basic

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 fly similar class models. And although this is the easiest to fly B-2 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, or higher performance EDF models like the E-flite UMX Me 262, the Viper 70mm and/or larger EDF models before attempting to fly the Micro B-2 Spirit Twin 30mm EDF.

Are you new to flying RC (Radio Controlled) aircraft? If you are, the B-2 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. It's equipped with exclusive and innovative SAFE technology, making it possible for almost anyone to learn to fly successfully!!

Bind-N-Fly® Completion Level Advantage

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!

Exclusive Technologies

This is the first B-2 Spirit model 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 this an easier-to-fly B-2. SAFE Select also features an automatic Hand Launch Assist mode that senses the force of a hand launch and adds up elevator so the airplane climbs at a higher angle for a few seconds to make it easier to launch.

Telemetry Capability

The Micro B-2 Spirit Twin 30mm EDF is equipped with a control unit including a receiver and ESCs that provide a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data, including overall battery voltage, current draw, and more – when using Smart and non-Smart batteries – to compatible Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/3 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 excellent speed and vertical performance, plus longer than average EDF flight times, when using the recommended 850mAh 30+C LiPo batteries with an IC2 connector.

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 fly without the landing gear installed for more speed and performance while utilizing the moulded-in finger grips and automatic Hand Launch Assist mode for easy hand launches and landings on grass.

Durable Design

The EPO airframe features various scale details, plastic-reinforced leading edges and wing tips, plus composite reinforcements in the nose and throughout, making it highly durable yet lightweight. The result is an outstanding scale appearance that's easy to maintain and delivers the best possible flying experience.

Fully Assembled

The Micro B-2 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 can fly within minutes of opening the box.

Factory Finished

The factory-applied and fully painted plus decal finish looks great and replicates the "Spirit of America" trim scheme.

Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage

Already own a SpektrumT 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 Bind-N-Fly Basic model is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX® receiver featuring AS3X® (Artificial Stabilization-3-aXis) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence so you enjoy a sense of stability and precision that makes it feel like you're flying a much larger, expertly tuned aircraft.

If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope protection technology built into the receiver. No programming is required.

With SAFE Select enabled, you get:

Pitch and Bank Angle Limits

• These envelope limits keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.

Automatic Self-Leveling

• The airplane instantly returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the centre position. It's also helpful for keeping the wings level during takeoffs/launches and landings.

Easy Switch Assignment-No Complex Programming Required

• The simple procedure for assigning a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any complex programming and takes just a few seconds. For UMX models like this one, SAFE Select is automatically assigned to channel 5 (Gear) so you can turn it on and off with any switch assigned to that channel (switch A by default on most Spektrum computer transmitters).
