I'm genuinely impressed by what Jason/E-Flite are producing these days and also this style of review flight. I appreciate Jason's honesty when explaining what level of flyer various models are suitable for. Performance like this from a UMX is incredible and add to that built in telemetry this truly is a great time to be in the hobby. Was also very impressed with the 64mm A-10 that was released recently. Keep it up guys!!

This private jet is not my style but I love the UMX jets and this makes me extremely excited for a new version of the UMX A10 with 3S and 30mm fans. I would buy that in a heartbeat!

Very cool. A UMX ME262 with this new system would be a winner.

Jason, you are a much better pilot than I. I would have hit many obstacles in that park but I agree, simple and fun to fly. Well done video.

[GBLynden]

Great job on the very detailed review. Even though there were points where I could barely see the plane, you could clearly read Jason’s body language and he loves this plane. I will be getting one of these sooner or later 😀

Horizon and Eflite....y'all have been just crushing it lately! Just got the A10 64mm and wow... well done! Most beautiful of your products yet. The foam is so smooth! Love the offset nose gear for the scale adherence. She flies amazingly and thank yoi...thank you so much for going 6S. My 4 batteries for your amazing F16 70mm that I absolutely love. Just locked in! Also..the hands free quick connect for the A10 wing is so freaking cool. Can get the A10 and F16 with wings off, the 1.2m Spitfire and even the V22 Osprey all in my 2016 Malibu!
This new citation looks so nice. Just don't think I can fit any more in the car lol. But... I would love to add this to my morning run to the park down the street where I fly the Osprey. Great thing about these... don't have to go to the Airfield. Can just throw them up in a small park or even a parking lot.
Keep up the great work guys.
Would love some info...even a rumor... on your Mike Patey projects! Really looking forward to a Draco. If you make it..I'll by a trailer lol.

Great Aircraft from HH! Thanks HH for another fun airplane!

[victorrcjets]

I like the looks and the power of it. I would love to see a big brother made of it someday too for us who love that scale looks in a bigger package. I like how easy is flies on hand launch just make sure you give it a little push to get some speed up guys! Great job Horizon!

[MrTurboparker]

Excellent demo, Jason! Love the new UMX Citation!

[anybodysguess]

Super good stuff. Great explanations on hand launching and stating that you’re using full throttle.

[Tallguysrc]

Just got mine and it flies great! Just got to find the correct cg as when I roll its not pretty

[modeljetjuggernaut]

Great flight review. Big plus that it comes with telemetry!

[spinrushrc]

Would love to see these with a brighter livery for visibility. The plane looks solid though.

[travelmateprince]

That’s my favorite plane the E-Flite UMX Citation longitude I love how it flies and you are the best Horizon Hobby flyer I love how you I just order the same plane.

[tomasscherer]

Amazing UMX jet. But, can we make a full scale general aviation park flyer like a 1.5m Bonanza or Cessna 206, maybe a Mooney or a new version of the 1.5m SR22T? Is that a great option? I really like GA airplanes...

[kenmunn]

Nice work Jason 😀. It just looks soooo dam cool.

[matthewbrothers]

Looking forward to a possible twin 64 of this.

[williewideback]

but hopefully in the future, it'll come in a twin 70mm large scale

[thelongestday]

Great jet! We love ours! Please bring out more airliners! In UMX and bigger! Love the twin 30mm fans! We also have your new A-10! Can`t wait to see the next models in this line up! Thanks Horizon Hobby!
