Technical Performance
The E-flite Airbus A320neo Twin 64mm EDF represents the pinnacle of scale RC jet engineering. Measuring 1580mm in length with a 1521mm wingspan and weighing 2954 grams, it achieves an impressive balance between scale authenticity and genuine aerobatic capability. The dual 64mm Electric Ducted Fan engines are powered by eight brushless outrunner motors with a 2840-1900Kv rating, providing the thrust vectoring and responsive acceleration needed for both smooth scale flying and spirited aerobatic manoeuvres. The 40-amp Spektrum Avian Dual Smart Lite Brushless ESC manages power distribution intelligently, offering real-time telemetry data feedback through compatible Spektrum transmitters so you always know your battery status mid-flight.
Battery compatibility spans the practical range of 6S 22.2V LiPo packs from 3200mAh to 7000mAh with 30+C discharge rates, accepting either EC5 or IC5 connectors. This flexibility allows you to optimise flight time versus performance based on your preferences—lighter batteries for vigorous aerobatics, larger capacity packs for extended cruising and scale flying. The eight factory-installed Spektrum Digital metal-geared servos with ball-link equipped linkages ensure smooth control response across all flight regimes, from gentle approaches to aggressive manoeuvres. The engineering throughout emphasises reliability and smooth handling characteristics, making the A320neo Twin 64mm EDF the best handling high-performance airliner EDF jet model available in its class. All internal systems come pre-installed, meaning no soldering or complex assembly is required—you simply need to integrate your own transmitter and receiver system.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the E-flite A320neo Twin 64mm EDF suitable for beginners? — This model is rated Skill Level 4, making it designed for experienced RC pilots rather than beginners. It requires solid understanding of EDF jet operations, transmitter programming, flight dynamics and battery management. If you're new to RC jets, consider starting with a lower skill level model first.
- What battery does the A320neo Twin 64mm EDF need? — The model requires a single 6S 22.2V LiPo battery with capacity between 3200mAh and 7000mAh and 30+C discharge rating. The battery must feature either an EC5 or IC5 connector. A 3200mAh pack offers lighter weight for aerobatics, whilst a 5000-7000mAh pack provides extended flight time for scale flying.
- What makes this EDF jet different from other RC airliner models? — The A320neo is officially licensed by Airbus, ensuring authentic details and proportions. It combines genuine aerobatic capabilities with scale realism, features comprehensive lighting systems (navigation, strobe and landing lights), operational flaps, retractable landing gear, and comes factory-assembled with eight digital servos and dual Smart Lite ESCs. These features combined make it the most complete and capable scale RC jet airliner available.
- Do I need a special transmitter for this model? — You need a full-range 6+ channel transmitter and receiver system. Spektrum systems are recommended as the model uses Spektrum servos and ESCs, and the Avian ESCs feature Smart telemetry compatibility with Spektrum transmitters. Other quality RC transmitters with 6+ channels and EC5/IC5 compatible receivers will function, but you won't access the telemetry features.
- How long does it fly on a single battery? — Flight time varies based on your battery choice and flying style. A 3200mAh battery typically provides shorter flights focused on aerobatic performance, whilst a 5000-7000mAh battery extends flight time significantly for leisurely scale flying and longer cruising sessions.
- Is this model waterproof? — The A320neo Twin 64mm EDF is not waterproof. Whilst it features sealed ESCs and quality components, it should not be flown in rain or wet conditions, and water should be kept away from all electronic systems.
- What transmitter and receiver do you recommend? — For optimal integration with this model's Spektrum electronics and Smart telemetry features, a Spektrum transmitter with matching receiver is ideal. RC Model Shop stocks a range of compatible Spektrum systems suited to jet flying and can advise on the best option for your needs and budget.
