Not included: 1x Full-range 4–6+ channel Spektrum DSMX®/DSM2® compatible transmitter 1x 6S 22.2V 3200–7000mAh LiPo with EC5™ or IC5® Connector 1x Compatible LiPo Charger.
The E-flite Eratix 3D SWS (Sport Wood Series) 1.6m is the larger, wood-construction evolution of the popular Eratix foamy model. It was designed to provide the crisp flight characteristics of a balsa and plywood airframe, combined with a level of convenience not typically found in models of this class. The Bind-N-Fly Basic version is a standout, offering a fast, bolt-together assembly that requires no glue. It comes out of the box with a high-quality selection of factory-installed components, including a powerful 6S-compatible Spektrum Avian power system, four high-voltage digital metal-geared servos, and a factory-installed AR637TA+ receiver. This receiver provides the stability of enhanced AS3X+ technology along with optional-use SAFE Select flight envelope protection.
This Eratix is designed for a wide performance range, capable of both smooth sport flying and high-energy 3D manoeuvres, which can be further augmented using the included Side Force Generators (SFGs). The quality of the airframe is apparent, with genuine UltraCote film covering and practical features like a tool-free, two-piece wing for easy transport and a large top hatch for battery access. The 100-amp Spektrum Avian Smart ESC delivers real-time telemetry data, such as battery voltage and motor RPM, and offers optional-use motor reversing for special ground handling. It's an excellent choice for an intermediate pilot's first wood model or a highly capable everyday sport and 3D aeroplane for experienced enthusiasts.
Note
Please refer to the instruction manual for safety precautions and operating instructions.
Optional-use Side Force Generators (SFGs) are included for enhanced aerobatic and 3D performance.
This Skill Level 2 aircraft is for experienced pilots who have mastered similar class models. It is the ideal next step for those looking to move into larger, balsa construction 3D aeroplanes. Success with models like the Eratix 3D FF or Timber X 1.2m is recommended before flying this aircraft.
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? This Bind-N-Fly® aircraft gets you in the air fast. It comes with the power system, servos, and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver pre-installed. Just bind the receiver to your compatible transmitter, complete the minor final assembly, and you're ready for an excellent control experience.
The factory-installed Spektrum™ Avian™ brushless motor is compatible with a wide range of 6S 3200–7000mAh batteries. This offers a broad choice of flight times and performance, from sport flying to unlimited vertical and 3D aerobatics. A large top-mounted hatch makes installing and removing batteries easy.
The BNF Basic version features enhanced Spektrum™ AS3X+ technology, specifically tuned for 3D/XA performance, giving it a locked-in feel. Optional SAFE® Select adds bank limits and self-levelling for extra confidence. A Smart Transmitter File also automatically loads settings for NX/iX transmitters, getting you flying faster.
Stay informed with the exclusive Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC. It provides real-time telemetry like battery voltage to your compatible transmitter, with both Smart and non-Smart batteries. Plus, optional-use motor reversing (5-6+ channels required) offers special ground handling and shorter landing rollouts for added control.
The Eratix 3D SWS arrives mostly factory-assembled with the power system and high-voltage, metal-geared servos pre-installed. The horizontal stabiliser bolts into place, and the elevators and rudder use captured pin hinges. No glue is required, so you can be flying in less time than any other model in its class.
Experience a unique flying feel with the built-up balsa and lite-ply airframe. Reinforced with carbon fibre, it's lightweight yet stiff and strong, providing a more precise response compared to foam models. It arrives mostly assembled and expertly covered in genuine UltraCote® film, with a full line of spare parts available.
The Eratix 3D SWS is capable of a wide range of flying styles, all in the same flight. It can perform slow, smooth sport manoeuvres and basic aerobatics, yet is also highly capable of aggressive 3D flying. This versatile performance envelope will be appreciated by intermediate and experienced pilots alike.
