This is my Second Flight with the E-flite UMX Citation Longitude Twin 30mm EDF BNF Basic.

E-flite UMX Citation Longitude Twin 30mm EDF BNF Basic Second Flight (5 min 0 sec)

Here are my Review Notes for this E-flite UM EDF Citation Jet:

Pros:
- Lots of lights all over it
- 3S Brushless Twin 30mm EDF's
- Chromed out plastic on the EDF inlets
- Plastic bits on the wingtips
- I will use it as a nice warm-up jet, perfect to slide into my car on the days I fly big jets like the E-flite Su-30 EDF Jet.

Cons:
- Dented foam on the main wing
- One of the mains was bent out of the box, but easily fixable
- Some glue leaked onto the silver part of the chromed out plastic on the EDF inlets

Check out my maiden flight review with the Skynetic Havok Racer!

Skynetic Havok Racer 1000mm PNP - Maiden Flight Review (7 min 13 sec)

Here are the Review Notes for this Fast RC Plane:

Pros:
- Looks great
- Robust paint
- Large battery bay
- Carbon reinforcement all over the plane
- Built like a tank, even without the CF
- Nice place to grip it for underhand tosses

Cons:
- I found the battery tray install to be overly complicated, but that could have just been me.
