E-fliteRC Airplane UMX Night Vapor BNF Basic Transmitter Battery and Charger not Included with AS3X and Safe Select 376mm EFLU1350

I don't give out 5 stars, this deserves it.Do you want slow flight? Fast flight? Indoor flight? Night Flight? This has all of it. Yes, you will need to tune it up before it will fly true, but you really need to do that with EVERY plane you build or buy. This thing is fun, safe, and will allow you to build your skills up. The lights are bright as Hades for day flights, but seriously shine at night. Get yourself some nice 150mAh 1S batteries and it will last you a good long time. I get right around 15 minutes per flight, and this really is a GREAT time, its just enough time to really enjoy flying, and gives you a good amount of time to rest up. SAFE mode and AS3X work great. Binding is simple, programing is simple, and the instructions are well written. There is no upgrade you need to install into your transmitter, simply set up a 3 channel air-frame (set up a 4 channel if you don't have the option to drop the ailerons).My rudder and my elevator were not even close, but its pretty simple to to tune them up. Take your time, fly slow and enjoy the learning. This will give you everything you need to learn to fly fixed-wing A/C if that is your goal. Otherwise, this is a fun little flier when the winds are dead and/or at night.

I've been flying RC aircraft for over 50 years and wanted a small and slow aircraft that I could fly in my backyard while relaxing in the evenings with a cool beverage. The UMX Night Vapor fit the bill perfectly. It's very easy to fly, even for a new comer with the built-in stabilization. The stabilization can be turn-off for that more spirited pilot. When flying outdoors, best to fly when there's little to no wind, since this lightweight aircraft can easily be blown into the trees. The plane can be flown indoors, but unless the plane is flown in a large area, such as a gymnasium, maneuverability will be limited. Durability is good, however if you fly the plane into an hard obstacle at maximum speed, it will break. Also, handle the aircraft gently - it's delicate. Keep the original eFlite box for storage. Setup was easy, charge the battery, insert battery into aircraft battery holder with hook and loop (Velcro), turn on the transmitter, plug in aircraft battery and fly. The hook and loop attachment for the battery can sometimes let loose, so a small hook and loop tie wrap is more useful. YMMV

Like other said, in normal flight the battery fell out and snapped the super tiny wires connecting the battery to the ESC. Couldn't be fixed. I bought another one, taped those wires together AND put a little velcro around the battery. That kept it from falling down, but it's so light that slight amount of tape and velcro threw off the center of gravity. So I figured I'd remove that, and while gently taking the velcro I snapped one of the teeny plastic frames for the elevator. Super glue didn't fix it. Junked it. Moving on to something else. The first day I had it, it was a blast. Second day a little wind and not a lot of fun.

This is my first indoor plane and I like it alot. It can fly very slowly, and has dual rates to make it even easier to fly. Comes assembled, charge battery and go. Reasonable value - I would recommend it for that purpose. I think it would have a hard time flying in any wind.

This is such a cool little plane. It's an amazing testament to how much technology can be crammed into a circuit board the size of your pinky fingernail. I bought it to fly indoors during the winter. It will fly outdoors on a still evening. It has AS3X which is just mind boggling. You can fly it in your living room if it's big enough and you have no table lamps.Only complaint is the battery doesn't like to stay attached to the velcro, and it's hard to figure out a good solution that doesn't add weight. Every microgram counts on this plane.

This plane is very lightly built. The only problem I noted is that the velcro that holds the battery comes loose easily. Save the box for storage and transport. When you fly it, you want very calm conditions.

Bought this for my son and now I want one for myself! Super easy to fly with the stabilization on, yet with a flick of the switch you can do some pretty impressive maneuvers for 3 channel slow flyer. Flight time is great, but I picked up a couple 200mah batteries for even longer sessions.Very happy with this purchase and it's totally worth the price.

After flying my friend's older model Vapor I had to get one of my own. The Night Vapor is such an excellent little flyer. It's handles great even at walking speeds. I'm getting 10+ minute flight durations. No complaints! I'm seriously thinking about buying a second one just in case something happens to the first.
