Flame Aquila 100ES (フレイムアクイラ100ES, Fureimu Akuira 100ES) is a Stamina Type Beyblade released as part of the Hybrid Wheel System. It was released by Takara Tomy in Japan on December 26th, 2009 in Random Booster Vol. 4 Mirage Virgo.
Face Bolt - Aquila
- Main article: Face Bolt - Aquila
The Face on this Beyblade depicts Aquila, one of the 88 constellations in space. In mythology, Aquila represents an eagle, which is featured on this Beyblade's Face Bolt.
Energy Ring - Aquila
- Main article: Energy Ring - Aquila
Eagle was first released in a translucent purple colour. Each side of this Energy Ring represents an eagle's pair of wings, with the notches on either side representing its head. It was clearly designed to fit with the aesthetic of the Earth Fusion Wheel with its two spikes/notches fitting nicely over the small notches on the inner section of Earth.
Attack: 2 - Defense: 1 - Stamina: 4
Fusion Wheel - Flame
- Main article: Fusion Wheel - Flame
The Fusion Wheel Flame is predominantly circular, with two small spikes and two additional smaller gaps on its circumference. The Fusion Wheel is relatively thin throughout, with the very edge of the Fusion Wheel being slightly thicker. Due to the design of Flame where the Fusion Wheel’s perimeter is raised slightly, more of the Spin Track below is exposed compared to other Fusion Wheels, hence making it easier for other Beyblades to strike its Spin Track. This significantly reduces its Defense capabilities. However, the raised perimeter allows slightly more wobbling time, as the raised Wheel reduces floor scraping.
Spin Track - 100
- Main article: Spin Track - 100
100 is the third lowest Spin Track available, but is outclassed in terms of Attack and Stamina by the even lower 85 and 90 Spin Tracks. 100 has no problem with floor scrapes, and while it is generally an outclassed part, it is still competitively viable, particularly in Attack customizations where it is able to make contact with opposing Beyblades.
Performance Tip - Eternal Spike
- Main article: Performance Tip - Eternal Spike
The Eternal Spike tip features a free-spinning tip attached to a metal shaft which is held by the Perfomance Tip.
The part was one of the most heavily anticipated parts in the MFB lineup when first announced, but ES is actually a hugely disappointing part in terms of performance.
Firstly, ES lacks a metal bearing, which would significantly reduce the friction between the free-spinning tip and the rest of the Performance Tip. All of the best free-spinning tips, notably Bearing Core, had Shielded Ball Bearings which allowed unhindered spin.
Secondly, Beyblades using ES are easily destabilised due to its sharp tip. As all Spike tips do, Eternal Spike also has trouble regaining balance, hence making this a poor choice for Stamina. That said, ES still remains superior to BS and S as Stamina Bottoms.
