Overview
Keep your UMX Air Tractor airworthy and ready for action with this genuine E-flite Landing Gear Set (EFLU16457). As a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK, you know that maintaining your micro aircraft is essential for consistent performance and safe operations.

Sourced directly from the manufacturer, this spare part represents the quality and precision engineering that E-flite is recognised for throughout the RC aircraft community across the UK and internationally.

Rather than attempting temporary fixes or compromises that could affect flight safety, a proper replacement landing gear set gives you complete peace of mind and ensures your UMX Air Tractor continues to perform exactly as intended by its designers.

This genuine OEM component is manufactured to exact specifications using materials and construction methods that match the original equipment fitted to the UMX Air Tractor.
