- I picked up a UMX / E-flite A-10 Ultra-Micro as a convenient after-work park-flier. The electronics are a great match for my Radiomaster TX16S, but how what do I think of it after a few months of flying?
This is a long one, so feel free to use the Chapter links below to jump to the parts you're most interested in.
Oh, and you can buy this UMX A-10 on Amazon at amzn.to/3zMJZnr
....and the replacement A-10 fuselage: amzn.to/3Ghml50
Stay tuned for more great RC Tech info. 😍

Thanks for this video. I got this plane a couple of weeks ago to use with my TX16S. I never even thought about setting up telemetry with my tx. Now I can use this video as a reference.
Awesome! Glad to have been of help. 😁
So, yeah...
You should see mine.
It smacked the ground at 45°down angle @50 -70mph everything that was the nose poof.
Had to rebuild and pour hot water over the foam to put it back together.
Was missing foam.
Replaced it with foam board it has white patches all over it.
My second flight after it was fixed snapped the nose off duringa soft landing.
The landing gear bent sideways collapsed and the nose gun dug in like a shovel.
I had such high hopes for this plane, too. I laminated mine in a last-ditch effort to boost its durability but haven't had a chance to really test it yet. I'll post a video once I get it back in the air.
Thanks for watching!
Hey buddy, I just picked one of these up and have a Radiomaster Boxer 4 in 1 on order for my son, and switched to an XT30 so I can use my FPV drone batteries also.
Thanks for the info.
Good luck with it! Let me know what you think once you get it in the air. 😁
No link for the batteries?
Unfortunately, Venom went under a while ago. You can still find their batteries on Amazon.com, but there is no one to honor the warranty now so I can't recommend buying them anymore. That said, they are still high quality batteries and they may not be a bad deal given how poor warranties are on a lot of other battery brands.
