It's equipped with special SAFE® (Sensing Unit Helped Flight Envelope) technology that assists to avoid overcontrol, loss of orientation and crashes so almost everybody can find out to fly successfully. Novice, Intermediate and Experienced modes enable you to pick the level of stability and control you need, or are prepared to try, at the flip of a switch. And you can instantly return to constant flight using Panic Recovery with the push of a button in any flight mode. Extra-large tires make it possible to remove and arrive at a range of surface areas consisting of thick turf, gravel courses, dirt tracks and smooth pavement, or you can install the optional drifts to fly from water—which contributes to its unequaled flexibility and capabilities.
The Carbon Cub S 2 is equipped with a 30-amp telemetry-capable ESC that provides a range of real-time power system associated telemetry data consisting of motor RPM, existing, battery voltage and more to suitable Spektrum™ AirWare™ equipped transmitters, and even approximate flight battery power remaining via numerous LEDs on the DXS transmitter consisted of with the RTF variation. The addition of special Spektrum Smart elements consisting of a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery and battery charger make it more convenient to charge appropriately and safely (battery and battery charger offered independently for the BNF® Standard variation). And you have the option to easily upgrade to SAFE Plus GPS-enabled technology that uses features such as AutoLand and Virtual Fence, together with the option to install the Landing Assist Sensing Unit (LAS) that immediately "flares" for smoother landings, to make learning to fly—and to land safely—much easier than ever!
The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) variation includes everything needed to fly in one box, and is the ideal option if you're a brand-new RC pilot. From the Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter you can use with other Bind-N-Fly® (BNF) and BNF Standard airplane after you find out to fly the Carbon Cub S 2, to the THREE 2200mAh Smart LiPo battery that provides long flight times and the practical S120 USB-C Smart battery charger that can be used with a range of USB source of power, there's nothing extra you need to buy or provide!

Thick turf, gravel courses, dirt tracks; you can fly from these and many other surface areas that are impossible for most designs of this size to deal with. The robust landing equipment is equipped with extra-large tires that soak up the bumps of rough surface areas and provide excellent prop clearance. The optional float set (offered independently) takes just a couple of minutes to install and all the essential hardware is consisted of with the airplane and float set so you can fly from lakes and ponds.
 

Optional Flaps

Optional Flaps
Practical flaps are an alternative for enhanced slow speed handling and even shorter departures and landings. This function requires a 7+ channel computer transmitter plus a flap servo and a servo extension (offered independently).
 





 

Optional Landing Assist Sensing Unit for Easier Landings

Optional Landing Assist Sensing Unit for Easier Landings
The Spektrum Landing Assist Sensing Unit (LAS) is simple to install and provides automatic "flare" control to help unskilled pilots "grease" landings by decreasing or entirely removing bouncing (works over many/most surface areas and provides maximum efficiency when flying over/landing in turf).

 





SAFE technology
 

Learn to Fly Successfully with SAFE® Innovation
If this is your first RC plane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensing Unit Helped Flight Envelope) technology prevents over-control and crashing while also using numerous flight modes to deliver more control and abilities as your abilities progress:

Novice Mode

In this flight mode, the plane has pitch and bank angle limitations to avoid over-control that can lead to a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the plane immediately returns to level flight by itself allowing you to relax and take pleasure in just 'guiding' the plane through the sky. This flight mode also makes it much easier to remove and land.

Beginner Mode
 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode enables more liberty in pitch and bank, however still prevents substantial over-control and the plane does not return to level flight by itself. This enables you to make tighter turns and to climb up and descend faster as your abilities advance. Likewise, Novice Mode immediately triggers and returns the plane to level flight when it comes down below approximately 30 feet above ground level and the control sticks are released.

Intermediate Mode
 

Experienced Mode

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

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Recovery

If you lose control of the plane in the Intermediate or Experienced flight modes, just change to Novice Mode and launch the control sticks. SAFE technology will immediately return the plane to level flight.

Panic Recovery

 

SAFE technology
 

Quickly Update to SAFE® Plus GPS-Enabled Innovation
With quick and simple installation of the optional Spektrum GPS Module you can include next-level autonomous assistance features that make it even much easier to find out to fly. With SAFE Plus added you get:

AutoLand

Triggered by just holding down a button, the sophisticated AutoLand function puts the plane on a stabilized approach to arrive at its own near the GPS initialization point. You can even provide some directional assistance to prevent obstacles or to change the approach while letting the system do the rest to perform a safe landing. As your abilities progress and you acquire more confidence you can take over more of the control inputs, eventually learning to land without any help from the automatic system at all.

AutoLand
 

Holding Pattern

This extremely valuable SAFE Plus-exclusive function essentially enables you to "stop briefly" the flight by putting the plane into a GPS-guided holding pattern. When triggered with the quick press of a button, the plane will immediately return to a position above the GPS initialization point and circle until the command is cancelled with another quick press of the button. It's a fantastic method to safely hand the controls off to a pal or to regain visual contact if you ever forget the design.

Holding Pattern
 

Virtual Fence

It's simple to accidentally let an RC plane fly too far, however with Virtual Fence, stress no more. It creates an undetectable boundary the plane won't fly past. When the plane reaches this boundary, it will immediately reverse and fly back towards the GPS initialization point. Then it will "wag" the wings to let you understand when you have control again.
