Overview
Invite to the interesting world of RC (Radio Managed) flight! If you have actually ever imagined requiring to the skies, Horizon Hobby has you covered. We are dedicated to engineering aircraft that you can learn to fly with successfully even if you have actually never flown RC before. Every HobbyZone® aircraft we offer functions industry-leading style and technology established by experts to keep you in control and learning at your own pace so you can turn your dreams of flight into a reality!
The HobbyZone® Carbon Cub S 2 is the simplest to fly, the majority of capable and flexible scale fitness instructor RC plane yet! It's geared up with special SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that assists to avoid overcontrol, loss of orientation and crashes so almost everyone can learn to fly successfully. Newbie, Intermediate and Skilled modes allow you to select the level of stability and control you require, or are prepared to try, at the flip of a switch. And you can quickly return to consistent flight using Panic Healing with the push of a button in any flight mode. Large tires make it possible to take off and arrive at a range of surface areas consisting of thick grass, gravel paths, dirt routes and smooth pavement, or you can set up the optional drifts to fly from water—which adds to its unmatched versatility and capabilities.
The Carbon Cub S 2 is geared up with a 30-amp telemetry-capable ESC that supplies a range of real-time power system associated telemetry information consisting of motor RPM, existing, battery voltage and more to compatible Spektrum™ AirWare™ equipped transmitters, and even approximate flight battery power remaining by means of numerous LEDs on the DXS transmitter included with the RTF variation. The addition of special Spektrum Smart components consisting of a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery and charger make it more convenient to charge effectively and securely (battery and charger offered independently for the BNF® Fundamental variation). And you have the choice to easily update to SAFE Plus GPS-enabled technology that offers functions such as AutoLand and Virtual Fence, together with the choice to set up the Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) that instantly "flares" for smoother landings, to make learning to fly—and to land securely—easier than ever!
The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) variation includes whatever required to fly in one box, and is the best choice if you're a new RC pilot. From the Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter you can use with other Bind-N-Fly® (BNF) and BNF Fundamental aircraft after you learn to fly the Carbon Cub S 2, to the THREE 2200mAh Smart LiPo battery that provides long flight times and the hassle-free S120 USB-C Smart charger that can be utilized with a range of USB power sources, there's nothing extra you require to purchase or supply! A BNF Fundamental variation is also readily available for knowledgeable pilots who wish to use their preferred Spektrum transmitter together with batteries and battery chargers they may currently own. And for both variations, the effective and effective brushless power system consisting of a telemetry-capable ESC, plus the flight controller, receiver and servos, are all factory-installed in the durable EPO airframe that assembles rapidly and easily without the need for glue or unique tools.

Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage
Already own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make entering into the air rapidly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver set up so all you require to do is bind the receiver to a suitable transmitter, end up any last assembly, and fly!
 



Telemetry Capable
The Carbon Cub S 2 is geared up with an ESC that can supply a range of real-time power system associated telemetry information consisting of motor RPM, existing, battery voltage and more to compatible Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (consisting of the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, iX12, iX20 and others) while you fly.
 







Durable Design
Building with innovative EPO product provides a lightweight yet durable airframe that's tough enough to handle everyday flying punishment without getting bent out of shape. And in the unfortunate event you damage any airframe parts or components and can't fix them, a complete line of replacement parts is easily available.
 



Easy Assembly
The Carbon Cub S 2 shows up mainly factory-assembled with the power system, servos plus the flight controller and receiver set up. All you require to do is end up some quick and simple last assembly, without the use of glue or unique tools, and you'll be prepared to fly in less time than it requires to charge a battery!
 







Versatile Gear Options
Thick grass, gravel paths, dirt routes; you can fly from these and many other surface areas that are impossible for the majority of models of this size to handle. The robust landing equipment is geared up with extra-large tires that absorb the bumps of rough surface areas and supply outstanding prop clearance. The optional float set (offered independently) takes simply a couple of minutes to set up and all the required hardware is included with the aircraft and float set so you can fly from lakes and ponds.
 



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





 



Optional Landing Assist Sensor for Smoother Landings
The Spektrum Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) is simple to set up and supplies automated "flare" control to help unskilled pilots "grease" landings by minimizing or entirely removing bouncing (works over many/most surface areas and supplies optimal efficiency when flying over/landing in grass).

 






 

Find Out to Fly Successfully with SAFE® Technology
If this is your first RC plane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology prevents over-control and crashing while also using numerous flight modes to deliver more control and abilities as your skills development:

Newbie Mode

In this flight mode, the plane has pitch and bank angle limits to avoid over-control that can lead to a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the plane instantly goes back to level flight on its own allowing you to unwind and take pleasure in simply 'steering' the plane through the sky. This flight mode also makes it easier to take off and land.


 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode allows more freedom in pitch and bank, but still prevents substantial over-control and the plane does not return to level flight on its own. This allows you to make tighter turns and to climb and descend quicker as your skills advance. Also, Newbie Mode instantly activates and returns the plane to level flight when it descends below around 30 feet above ground level and the control sticks are released.


 

Skilled Mode

In Skilled Mode there are no pitch or bank angle limits 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 Healing can be triggered by changing to Newbie Mode and releasing the control sticks.


 

 

Panic Healing

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



 


 

Quickly Update to SAFE® Plus GPS-Enabled Technology
With quick and simple setup of the optional Spektrum GPS Module you can add next-level self-governing guidance functions that make it even easier to learn to fly. With SAFE Plus included you get:

AutoLand

Triggered by simply holding down a button, the innovative AutoLand function puts the plane on a stabilized approach to arrive at its own near the GPS initialization point. You can even supply some directional guidance to prevent obstacles or to change the approach while letting the system do the rest to perform a safe landing. As your skills development and you gain more self-confidence you can take control of more of the control inputs, ultimately learning to land with no assistance from the automatic system at all.


 

Holding Pattern

This extremely valuable SAFE Plus-exclusive feature basically allows 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 instantly 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 an excellent method to securely hand the controls off to a friend or to restore visual contact if you ever forget the design.


 

Virtual Fence

It's simple to mistakenly let an RC plane fly too far away, but with Virtual Fence, fret no more. It creates an invisible border the plane won't fly past. When the plane reaches this border, it will instantly turn around and fly back toward the GPS initialization point. Then it will "wag" the wings to let you understand when you have control once again.
