Versatile Gear Options
Thick yard, gravel paths, dirt tracks; you can fly from these and lots of other surfaces that are impossible for most models of this size to handle. The robust landing gear is equipped with large tires that take in the bumps of rough surfaces and supply excellent prop clearance. The optional float set (sold individually) takes just a couple of minutes to install and all the necessary hardware is included with the airplane and float set so you can fly from lakes and ponds.
 

Optional Flaps

Optional Flaps
Functional flaps are an alternative for improved slow speed handling and even shorter takeoffs and landings. This function needs a 7+ channel computer transmitter plus a flap servo and a servo extension (sold individually).
 





 

Optional Landing Assist Sensing Unit for Smoother Landings

Optional Landing Assist Sensing Unit for Smoother Landings
The Spektrum Landing Assist Sensing Unit (LAS) is easy to install and provides automatic "flare" control to help unskilled pilots "grease" landings by minimizing or totally getting rid of bouncing (works over many/most surfaces and provides maximum efficiency when flying over/landing in yard).

 





SAFE technology
 

Learn to Fly Effectively with SAFE® Innovation
If this is your first RC plane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensing Unit Helped Flight Envelope) innovation avoids over-control and crashing while also providing multiple flight modes to provide more control and capabilities as your skills development:

Newbie Mode

In this flight mode, the plane 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 plane instantly goes back to level flight by itself permitting you to unwind and enjoy just 'steering' the plane through the sky. This flight mode also makes it much easier to take off and land.

Beginner Mode
 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode enables more liberty in pitch and bank, but still avoids substantial over-control and the plane does not return to level flight by itself. This enables you to make tighter turns and to climb and come down faster as your skills advance. Likewise, Newbie Mode instantly activates and returns the plane to level flight when it descends listed below around 30 feet above ground level and the control sticks are released.

Intermediate Mode
 

Knowledgeable Mode

In Knowledgeable Mode there are no pitch or bank angle limitations so you have total 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 activated by changing to Newbie Mode and releasing the control sticks.

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Recovery

If you lose control of the plane in the Intermediate or Knowledgeable flight modes, merely change to Newbie Mode and release the control sticks. SAFE innovation will instantly return the plane to level flight.

Panic Recovery

 

SAFE innovation
 

Easily Upgrade to SAFE® Plus GPS-Enabled Innovation
With fast and easy setup of the optional Spektrum GPS Module you can include next-level autonomous guidance functions that make it even much easier to discover to fly. With SAFE Plus included you get:

AutoLand

Activated by merely holding down a button, the sophisticated AutoLand function puts the plane on a stabilized technique to land on its own near the GPS initialization point. You can even supply some directional guidance to avoid obstacles or to adjust the technique while letting the system do the rest to carry out a safe landing. As your skills development and you get more self-confidence you can take over more of the control inputs, ultimately finding out to land without any support from the automated system at all.

AutoLand
 

Holding Pattern

This extremely helpful SAFE Plus-exclusive function essentially enables you to "stop briefly" the flight by putting the plane into a GPS-guided holding pattern. When activated with the fast press of a button, the plane will instantly return to a position above the GPS initialization point and circle till the command is cancelled with another fast press of the button. It's a great way to safely hand the controls off to a buddy or to restore visual contact if you ever lose sight of the model.

Holding Pattern
 

Virtual Fence

It's easy to inadvertently let an RC plane fly too far, but with Virtual Fence, worry no more. It develops an undetectable border the plane won't fly past. When the plane reaches this border, it will instantly reverse and fly back toward the GPS initialization point. Then it will "wag" the wings to let you understand when you have control again.
