Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How long can I expect to fly on one charge?
A: Approximately 5–7 minutes—depending on wind and aggressiveness of maneuvers. Always land when battery voltage begins to drop.

Q2: Is the glow permanent?
A: The wing’s phosphorescent leading edges charge under sunlight or bright indoor light and typically glow for 15–20 minutes in low light before needing a recharge.

Q3: What wind conditions can it handle?
A: AS3X stabilization allows for stable flight in winds up to ~10 mph. In SAFE® Select or AS3X-off modes, limit to lighter winds (< 5 mph).

Q4: Can I replace the wing or other parts?
A: Yes—replacement wings, propellers, and receiver modules are available at PilotMall.com under “E-flite UMX Night Vapor Spare Parts.”

Q5: Do I need to update firmware?
A: No firmware updates are required; the AS3X flight controller and receiver come pre-calibrated from the factory.
