E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

Hello everybody I was looking around and I found this plane. I got hooked. I just love its design and performance but I am stuck in between the mini ultra sick and the regular ultra stick. If anyone has this plane I would love if anyone cold show me the size difference it would be awesome. Also what setup do you have in whichever one?

Thank you:D

You have a name wrong in the Poll. Both are not 25e's

The mini US would be a .049 size in a combustion engine

The US 25 E would be a .25 size if using a gas engine.

The 25e has significantly more potential as an electric or gas plane. It has better wind penetration and flies smoother.

The mini is a calm air plane.

well I might be confused but here is what I'm talking about and I'm not sure on size of engine in the mini

I can't comment on the .25 Ultra Stik but the Mini Ultra Stik flies quite well and is right at home at a normal glow flying field. The recommended park 450 outrunner flies it quite adequately but if you want insane verticle performance, go with the 480. It's a little on the fast side to be a "park flyer". I have flown it in 10-15 mph winds with no problems but I am not a beginner either.

This is the Mini. It says nothing about the 25e in the name

yeah but i didn't know the engine size

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

If you are going to use an engine to power a mini ultra stik, a .049 is way too small. This plane has a 42 inch wingspan. I would guess at least a .10 or better yet a .15. This plane was designed for electric power so you are going to be in for a lot of modifying and fuel proofing. Leave it electric and use a e-flite Park 480 brushless outrunner with 2100 mAh 3s lipo batterypack. You won't regret it.

i am not converting ethier of these to gas. i picked these because they was electric. the question is which one

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

Bigger is usually better, IMO (handles wind better, etc.), but it's also more expensive for the power system. I'd say get the mini if you want a park flyer, or get the 25e if you want an electric plane to fly at an RC airfield.

well that is were im stuck i want to be able to fly at the high school, ball park, ext. but im not sure is the 25e is small enuogh to fly. i dont want too small cause i also want a club flyer

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

The 25e is a little large and fast for a ball park unless you are very skilled.

It's not a park flyer. It is just electric.

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

by skilled how do you mean. this is a BIG ballpark. i think its corner is 280 and center 300, but i understand your consern. i dont want to be limited by sise and critized for uesing there space.

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

True, even the Mini Ultra Stik is kind of streching the limits of a park flyer. I fly one at a glow field and it has no problem flying the pattern along with the glow planes.

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

so which one for a somewhat park flyer? i want a big plane to fly at the field but in the limit fo a park flyer. i'm still leaning 25e over the mini. i dont want to drive 40+ minutes to fly for 5 minutes. i also want a reasonable 2 plane

RE: E-Flite ultra stick 25e
 

You probably had better get accustomed to which ever one you are going to get by flying in a big field until you learn what it can do. Then move into a smaller field?
