The E-flite Ultra-Micro Timber Bind-N-Fly Basic was made to fly in small spaces, indoors and out. Like its larger brother, Short Take Off and Landing (STOL) is a specialty of this ultra-micro, offering versatile performance that harnesses both friendly flying characteristics and an abundance of power. Right out of the box, the fully-assembled UMX Timber comes complete with functional flaps and oversized wheels. Combined with light wing loading and brushless motor power, getting out and back into tight spaces is possible. Installation of the included leading edge slats means you can land even slower and takeoff in shorter distances. AS3X technology with optional SAFE Select mode means you get the ultimate in control performance no matter when you choose to fly, even if it’s a bit windy. Plus the brilliant LED lighting adds a special touch of realism and the ability to buzz the bush after sundown. And, if you want to fly from pools and ponds, all that’s needed is the addition of the E-flite UMX float set (EFLUA1190, sold separately) that takes only minutes to install.

STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) Capabilities and an Abundance of Power
The UMX Timber wing is designed with STOL features like wing-tip droops, enlarged functional flaps and optional-use leading edge slats. These, along with the model's lightweight construction and powerful 3000Kv brushless motor, allow it to spring into the air or float down and land in less space than any other model in its class.

AS3X® Receiver with Optional SAFE® Select Flight Mode
The model’s AS3X (Artificial Stabilization - 3-aXis) receiver works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence so you enjoy a sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you're flying a larger, expertly tuned aircraft. If you're new to flying UMX models or want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can activate the optional SAFE® Select flight mode.

Optional SAFE® Select Mode Delivers:

  • Pitch and Bank Angle Limits: These keep the aircraft from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles during takeoff and landing.
  • Automatic Self-Leveling: Instantly returns the wings to level when the sticks are released. It’s also helpful when hand launching the airplane.
  • Simple Setup: No programming is required. The function is automatically assigned to your transmitter’s gear channel so you can turn it on and off whenever you want.
  • Brilliant LED Light System: Right out of the box, the UMX Timber airplane comes equipped with realistic-looking NAV lights, landing lights, wing-tip strobes and beacons, all factory-installed and powered off the flight battery.
  • Fully-Assembled and Bind-N-Fly Ready: The UMX Timber arrives 100% factory-assembled and ready to fly right out of the box. It's also equipped with Spektrum® 2.4GHz technology that’s ready to bind to a 6+ channel DSM2/DSMX transmitter so you can be ready to fly within minutes of opening the box.

This is probably my new favorite model period.. it flies amazingly, the flaps and slats really help it slow down and almost stop. This is a great model for almost anyone with the SAFE and AS3X included. I would recommend it to almost anyone!!

This is my first plane and it's a blast to fly. Safe mode makes it easy and the flight is stable. As I get more comfortable, I can just turn safe off. Also being able to adjust the flaps is nice. The LED lights look super cool. Great value!

I logged in to do a review on this plane and see they are backordered. I understand why! This plane is freaking awesome! It flies and handles like a much larger model. Plenty of power, full aerobatics, great look. Fit and finish is excellent. This is a great model for a beginner or a seasoned ace! This little plane exceeded all my expectations! This is one to grab when you can cause this is more fun than you could have with models costing twice the money. Pick up a Timber ASAP, you'll be glad you did!

Not sure why this little Timber is not owned by everyone! It flies so nice and so well. Best UMX ever made. Does not have and bad small plane tendencies like most little models have. This thing flies just like the big version. Smooth slow or has the power to rip and hover on prop and still punch out straight up. Love it very much. Just a really nice airplane that I cannot say enough good about. On the fence? Don't be! Hit the button and be ready for pure flying fun!

I didn’t pay much attention to this plane thinking that it was just a trainer. I was wrong. It does all of the basic maneuvers well, has enough power to go straight up, hover, and do a knife edge with ease. It has good speed and you can slow it down to a crawl with the two position flaps. I added the slats and it makes very slow flying more stable, but it will want to climb on you at higher speeds. Just add a little down elevator. It truly is a STOL. The led lights on the wingtips, fuselage and headlights are a nice touch. I added floats to it and it doesn’t effect the flight performance much at all.
I highly recommend it. Well worth the money, and a lot of fun.
