About E-Flite Electric RC Aircraft

The company was founded in 1999 and is based in Champaign, Illinois, USA. E-flite's products are known for their high quality and advanced features, making them popular among hobbyists and enthusiasts alike.

The Habu is regarded as the best EDF jet for beginners, and the Turbo Timber one of the easiest RC Planes to fly.

At the other end of their product line up is the utterly incredible V900. The V900 is factory-equipped with a versatile high-power brushless power system that gives you the option to choose just how fast you want to go. Simply drop in a 3S battery to reach speeds up to 100+ MPH. Or, to go beyond that and reach top speeds up to 120+ MPH, install a 4S battery—no modifications or upgrades are necessary—not even a prop change is required.

One of the standout features of E-flite's products is their use of advanced technologies such as AS3X (Artificial Stabilization - 3-axis) and SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) systems. These technologies help to stabilize the aircraft and make it easier to fly, even for beginners. Additionally, many of their planes are equipped with brushless motors, which provide increased power and efficiency - E-flite® aircraft are developed by experts who love electric power and flying as much as anyone!

E-flite offers a wide range of aircraft models, including warbirds, sport planes, and scale models.

Many of their products are available in both ready-to-fly (RTF) and bind-n-fly (BNF) versions, allowing users to choose the level of customization and assembly they prefer.

FAQs for E-Flite Electric RC Aircraft

Which E-Flite aircraft suits my flying experience?

E-Flite offers models across every skill level, so the right choice depends on where you're at. Complete beginners should look at the Apprentice and UMX-series trainers with SAFE technology, which actively helps prevent crashes while you learn the sticks. Intermediate pilots can step up to sport and warbird models, while experienced flyers enjoy 3D aerobatic airframes and scale helicopters. Consider your flying space too — park flyers handle smaller fields, while larger planes need open space common across Australia.

What sets E-Flite electric planes and helis apart?

E-Flite is one of the most trusted names in electric flight, and for good reason. Their airframes feature SAFE and AS3X stabilisation technology, which smooths out wind gusts and makes flying dramatically more forgiving — especially handy for learning or windy Australian conditions. Build quality is excellent, with durable EPO foam, pre-installed electronics, and Spektrum DSMX compatibility straight out of the box. Whether you fly trainers, warbirds or 3D aerobats, E-Flite delivers refined, flight-tested designs that perform reliably right out of the packaging.

Do you carry E-Flite spare parts and accessories in Australia?

Yes — we stock a comprehensive range of E-Flite spares and accessories in our Australian warehouse, including replacement props, spinners, landing gear, control horns, motors, ESCs and servos. Matching the correct part to your specific airframe is important, so part numbers are clearly listed. Orders ship quickly to anywhere in Australia, which means less downtime between flights. If you need help identifying the right replacement for your model, our team is happy to point you in the right direction.

Which E-Flite models are popular with Australian pilots?

Australian pilots gravitate toward E-Flite's trainer and park-flyer range, with the Apprentice STS being a standout first plane thanks to SAFE-assisted flight. The UMX series — including the UMX Turbo Timber and various UMX warbirds — are huge favourites for flying in smaller parks and backyards. Scale warbirds like the P-51 Mustang and Spitfire also have a loyal following. For heli pilots, the Blade range offers everything from micro indoor machines to larger collective-pitch helicopters suited to outdoor flying.
