The E-flite® Eratix 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 860mm took the market by storm by being the most convenient, easiest to assemble, and fly “flat foamy” model in its class. Now the Eratix 3D SWS (Sport Wood Series) 1.6m (64") offers those same benefits along with the advantages of lightweight, stiff, and strong wood construction to deliver excellent flight performance plus convenience and value unlike similar class models. It’s the first-ever wood-built and fully 3D capable model of its size available in a BNF Basic version – that assembles quickly and easily without any glue – equipped with factory-installed high voltage digital and metal-geared servos, a 6S compatible Spektrum Avian motor and Smart ESC, plus a 6-channel receiver with AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. It’s also available in an ARF version that’s ready for installation of your preferred power system and electronics.
The E-flite® Eratix 3D Sport Wood Series (SWS) 1.6m (64”) offers the aggressive aerobatic plus smooth sport flying performance of similar models – without all the hassles of building one! The BNF Basic version assembles without glue and can be ready to fly in less time compared to the many hours it usually takes to construct other models in its class. It’s based on the design of the “flat foamy” Eratix but features strong, stiff, and lightweight built-up wood construction. The balsa and plywood airframe with carbon fiber reinforcement throughout arrives factory-finished with genuine UltraCote™ film covering. The BNF Basic version arrives mostly factory-assembled, so you can have it flying in almost no time — without glue or special tools. A two-piece wing that installs without fasteners and tools makes it easier to store and transport. Plus, you can install the included and optional-use Side Force Generators (SFGs) for even better aerobatic capabilities.
The BNF (Bind-N-Fly) Basic version features four factory-installed high-voltage digital and metal-geared Spektrum servos, a 6S-compatible Avian 5055-500Kv outrunner motor, and a 100-amp Smart ESC that provides a variety of power system-related telemetry data with both Smart and non-Smart batteries via compatible Spektrum AirWare-equipped transmitters. This version is also equipped with an AR637TA+ receiver that provides full-range, real-time telemetry data, including overall battery voltage, current draw, ESC temp, and more, plus motor reversing for special ground handling and other capabilities. It also features the benefits of enhanced AS3X+ that's been specifically tuned for 3D/XA (eXtreme Aerobatic) performance without compromising feel, along with optional-use SAFE Select technology. The ARF (Almost-Ready-To-Fly) version is ready for you to install the electronics and power system you prefer.
Both versions feature carbon fiber landing gear with optional-use wheel pants, and a large and top-mounted canopy hatch for easy access to the battery compartment. They’re also equipped with pin hinges for the ailerons, along with captured pin hinges for the elevator and rudder for easy and glue-free control surface installation or replacement. It all combines to make the Eratix 3D SWS a great first-ever “wood” and everyday sport flying to 3D aerobatic model for intermediate to experienced pilots!
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. You should have the experience and skills necessary to successfully fly models like the E-flite Eratix 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 860mm, Sportix 1.1m, Timber X 1.2m, Extra 330 SC 3D 1.3m, or other similar class models before attempting to fly the BNF Basic version Eratix 3D SWS 1.6m (64”).
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!
The factory-installed Spektrum™ Avian™ brushless outrunner motor is compatible with 6S 3200–7000mAh batteries to offer a wide range of flight times and performance – from sport flying and basic aerobatics to hovering and unlimited vertical performance. Plus, the large and convenient top-mounted canopy hatch makes it easy to install and remove batteries.
The BNF Basic version of the Eratix 3D SWS is equipped with exclusive Spektrum AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. Enhanced AS3X+ technology works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence and deliver an even more locked-in feel than standard AS3X, which makes it seem like you're flying an even larger airplane. It’s also been specifically tuned for 3D/XA (eXtreme Aerobatic) performance without compromising feel. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits and automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch! If you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, simply bind the receiver normally, and only AS3X+ will be active. The receiver is also loaded with a Smart Transmitter File (STF) that allows you to import all the settings for NX and iX series transmitters during the binding process to be ready to fly in less time than ever!
The Eratix 3D SWS is equipped with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Smart ESC that provides a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data including overall battery voltage and more – with both Smart and non-Smart batteries – via compatible receivers (including the AR637TA+ installed in the BNF Basic version) and 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. Plus, optional-use motor/thrust reversing can help shorten rollout after landing and offers other special ground handling capabilities (5–6+ channel transmitter required for reversing).
The BNF® Basic version Eratix 3D SWS 1.6m (64”) arrives mostly factory-assembled with the power system, servos, and receiver installed. That includes four high-voltage digital and metal-geared Spektrum A179 and A180 mini servos with metal cases. The two-piece horizontal stabilizer bolts into place, and the elevators and rudder install with captured pin hinges, so no glue is required for assembly and you be flying in less time than any other model in its class! The ARF version is ready to fly after typical final assembly, power system, and electronics installation.
The built-up balsa and lite-ply airframe with carbon fiber reinforcement throughout is lightweight yet stiff and strong to provide a unique and enhanced flying experience compared to foam models. Best of all it arrives mostly factory-assembled and finished in genuine UltraCote® film covering. 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.
Like other similar class models, the Eratix 3D SWS is capable of slow cruising, smooth sport flying, basic aerobatics, and even aggressive 3D flying – all in the same flight! It offers a truly “mild to wild” flight experience that intermediate to experienced pilots will appreciate and enjoy.
