Overview
Gee Bees competed in all the popular airplane races of the Golden Era of aviation. These highly engineered, teardrop-shaped, super planes required a skillful hand and perfect circumstances, but with the right pilot, they ruled the speed course. The UMX Gee Bee R2 is yours to groove through the skies just about anywhere because it features specially tuned handling more in common with a Sunday sport model than a short-coupled engine with wings.
The awe-inspiring UMX Gee Bee R2 replica offers handling so remarkably smooth, you’ll want to fly this authentically scaled model every day. Its built-in, specially tuned, AS3X System invisibly helps you enjoy the kind of silky handling and outstanding control you always wanted from a conveniently sized RC model, but never thought possible before now.
And you get all the benefits without having to spend a lot of setup time. No special programming is required. Just charge the included Li-Po battery, bind to a basic DSM2™/DSMX® airplane transmitter setup and the UMX Gee Bee R2, enhanced with the AS3X System, will instantly offer you the best flight experience possible.

I have over 40 planes gas glo brushless and this is the most unreal small model i have flown compared to my older S bach (which i love) it is amazing bit weird on the sticks to start with but wow rock solid fast or slow.
Another fabulous parkzone / e-flite plane shows how much they test their planes before flying.

Absolutely amazing! I flew this plane in gusty winds up to around 15kph. The plane flew as though there was no wind gusts at all! The UMX system is truely incredible. I also flew my micro P-51 to compare which bounced around in the gusts as I expected it to do. The Gee Bee was super smooth in comparison. Landing is simple as the UMX system keeps the wings level while you concentrate on elevator and throttle input. The UMX system is a major advance in rc flying.
