SAFE technology
 

Learn to Fly Effectively with SAFE® Innovation
If this is your first RC airplane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensing Unit Assisted Flight Envelope) technology prevents over-control and crashing while also providing several flight modes to deliver more control and abilities as your skills development:

Newbie Mode

In this flight mode, the airplane has pitch and bank angle limitations to avoid over-control that can result in a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the airplane instantly goes back to level flight by itself permitting you to relax and take pleasure in simply 'guiding' the airplane through the sky. This flight mode also makes it much easier to remove and land.

Beginner Mode
 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode enables more flexibility in pitch and bank, however still prevents considerable over-control and the airplane does not go back to level flight by itself. This enables you to make tighter turns and to climb up and descend quicker as your skills advance. Likewise, Newbie Mode instantly triggers and returns the airplane to level flight when it comes down below approximately 30 feet above ground level and the control sticks are released.

Intermediate Mode
 

Skilled Mode

In Skilled Mode there are no pitch or bank angle limitations so you have complete control! You can even fly inverted (upside down) and perform aerobatic maneuvers consisting of loops, rolls, stall turns and more. Panic Healing can be triggered by changing to Newbie Mode and releasing the control sticks.

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Healing

If you lose control of the airplane in the Intermediate or Skilled flight modes, simply change to Newbie Mode and launch the control sticks. SAFE technology will instantly return the airplane to level flight.

Panic Recovery

 

SAFE technology
 

Easily Update to SAFE® Plus GPS-Enabled Innovation
With quick and simple setup of the optional Spektrum GPS Module you can add next-level autonomous assistance functions that make it even much easier to discover to fly. With SAFE Plus included you get:

AutoLand

Activated by simply holding down a button, the sophisticated AutoLand function puts the airplane on a supported approach to arrive on its own near the GPS initialization point. You can even supply some directional assistance to avoid challenges or to adjust the approach while letting the system do the rest to perform a safe landing. As your skills development and you get more self-confidence you can take over more of the control inputs, ultimately learning to land with no help from the automated system at all.

AutoLand
 

Holding Pattern

This really practical SAFE Plus-exclusive function essentially enables you to "stop briefly" the flight by putting the airplane into a GPS-guided holding pattern. When triggered with the quick press of a button, the airplane will instantly go back to a position above the GPS initialization point and circle up until the command is cancelled with another quick press of the button. It's a terrific method to securely hand the controls off to a buddy or to regain visual contact if you ever forget the design.

Holding Pattern
 

Virtual Fence

It's simple to accidentally let an RC airplane fly too far, however with Virtual Fence, worry no more. It creates an invisible limit the airplane won't fly past. When the airplane reaches this limit, it will instantly reverse and fly back towards the GPS initialization point. Then it will "wag" the wings to let you know when you have control once again.
