Overview

E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane Introduction

In the early 2000s, "flat foamy" models were extremely popular because they could be scratch-built from foam sheets you could buy in many stores. Today, most foam models are fully molded sport and scale aircraft – and few can match the unique capabilities and performance of flat foam models, especially those designed and built for aerobatic plus 3D flying! The E-flite® 4-Site 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 800mm is based on the original F3P and UMX models and is a biplane alternative to the popular Eratix 3D FF that's taken the market by storm. It's perfect for experienced pilots who already build and fly flat foam models, intermediate pilots who are interested in them but don't want to undertake a complicated build, and less experienced pilots who have always wanted to try but were intimidated by the extra effort and skills required to buy, build and fly such a model. The 4-Site 3D FF is the easiest to fly, most convenient, and best value in a biplane flat foamy model yet!

E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane Overview

The E-flite® 4-Site 3D FF (Flat Foamy) 800mm offers the aggressive aerobatic plus smooth sport and slow-flying performance of similar class models – without all the hassles of buying components for and building one! It bolts and snaps together so it can be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery compared to the glue, tape, and many hours it usually takes to assemble other "flat foamy" aircraft. It's a biplane alternative to the best-selling Eratix 3D FF with a shorter wingspan but more wing area for lower wing loading overall. Its lightweight yet extremely durable EPP airframe is mostly factory-assembled and includes three durable and precise metal-geared servos on all the control surfaces. The factory-installed power system features a 3S-compatible brushless motor matched to a Spektrum Avian Smart ESC compatible with Smart and non-Smart 850–1000mAh batteries. The BNF Basic version is also equipped with an AR630+ receiver to deliver real-time telemetry data, enhanced AS3X+, and optional-use SAFE Select technologies. It's small enough and light enough to be flown indoors in gymnasiums and other similar spaces or outdoors in yards, parks, and sports fields, making it a versatile addition to the hangar for a wide range of pilots!

E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane Features

  • Extremely durable yet lightweight, high-density EPP airframe with carbon fiber and composite reinforcements
  • Factory-finished in a high-contrast, high-visibility trim scheme for excellent orientation
  • Landing gear snaps into place for easy installation, removal and replacement
Skill Level 3 – Experience Required

Skill Level 3 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for more experienced RC pilots with the skills to assemble, set up, and fly similar class models. This PNP version requires more experience and skills to assemble and fly than the BNF Basic version because you must install a receiver that does not already include properly tuned AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies. It's not a suitable first-ever RC aircraft for new pilots or first-ever aerobatic/3D model for low-time RC pilots. You should have the experience and skills necessary to assemble and successfully fly models like the E-flite UMX Ultrix, UMX Timber X, T-28 Trojan 1.1m, Sportix 1.1m, Timber X 1.2m, or other similar class models before attempting to fly the 4-Site 3D FF PNP version.

Plug-N-Play® Completion Level for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
Plug-N-Play® Completion Level

This Plug-N-Play (PNP) version comes out of the box with a factory-installed power system and servos that are ready to connect to the compatible receiver of your choice (sold separately),plus the transmitter and battery you provide (also sold separately). Simply install the receiver, finish any final assembly, and fly!

Smart Technology for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
Smart Technology

The 4-Site 3D FF is equipped with an exclusive Spektrum Avian Smart Lite ESC that can provide a variety of real-time power system-related telemetry data including motor RPM, current, overall battery voltage, and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – via compatible receivers (including the AR630+) and Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and DX8e, DX6 G2/3 and DX8 G2, the DX9, NX6 to 20, iX12 to 20 and others) while you fly.

Uniquely Capable for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
Uniquely Capable

Like other flat foamy models, the 4-Site 3D FF 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, whether indoors in gymnasiums or outdoors in yards, parks, sports fields, and beyond.

High Performance for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
High Performance

The factory-installed brushless power system features a specially tuned Spektrum outrunner motor. This power system delivers plenty of thrust for unlimited vertical and 3D performance with 3S 850–1000mAh batteries!

Easy Assembly for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
Easy Assembly

Unlike other flat foamy models that are only available as kits without power and control components, the 4-Site 3D FF arrives mostly factory-assembled with the power system, servos, and receiver (BNF Basic version only) installed. All you need to do is finish some quick and easy final bolt/snap-together assembly—without the use of glue, tape, or special tools—and you'll be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery!

Durable Design for the E-flite 4-Site 3D FF RC Airplane
Durable Design

Three factory-installed digital servos with metal gears on all the control surfaces, plus construction with carbon fiber and composite-reinforced, high-density EPP, deliver a lightweight yet stiff and durable airframe. 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.
