Ready-To-Fly Basic Flexibility
This Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basic variation includes a Spektrum™ DXS controller/transmitter equipped with industry-leading DSMX® 2.4GHz technology and everything else you need to fly other than for a rechargeable lithium polymer (LiPo) battery and battery charger for the aircraft. The hassle-free and money-saving Spektrum™ Powerstage 2 bundle (SPMXPSA200) includes a suitable 3S 2200mAh Smart G2 LiPo battery and an S120 USB-C Smart battery charger that can be used with a variety of USB source of power. Or you can pick the different 3S 1300–2200mAh battery and suitable battery charger you prefer!
 







Telemetry Capable
The Carbon Cub S 2 1.3m is equipped with a telemetry-capable ESC that can supply a variety of real-time power system associated telemetry information to suitable transmitters. This includes approximate flight battery power staying by means of multiple LEDs and audible alerts from the DXS transmitter included with the RTF Basic variation. It will also supply motor RPM, existing, general battery voltage and more to Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (including the DX6e and 8e, DX6 G2/G3 and 8 G2, the DX9, the NX6, 8 and 10, the iX12, iX20 and others) while you fly.
 



Durable Design
Building and construction with advanced EPO material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe that's tough enough to handle daily flying penalty without getting bent out of shape. And in the unfortunate occasion you damage any airframe parts or components and can't repair them, a full line of replacement parts is readily offered.
 






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



Versatile Gear Options
Thick yard, gravel paths, dirt tracks; you can fly from these and numerous other surface areas that are impossible for a lot of designs of this size to handle. The robust landing equipment is equipped with oversized tires that soak up the bumps of rough surface areas and supply outstanding prop clearance. The optional float set (HBZ7390, sold independently) takes simply a couple of minutes to install and all the needed hardware is included with the airplane and float set so you can fly from lakes and ponds.
 






Optional Flaps
Functional flaps are a choice for improved slow speed handling and even much shorter departures and landings. This feature requires a 7+ channel computer transmitter plus a flap servo and a servo extension (sold independently).
 



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







Easily Upgrade to SAFE® Plus GPS-Enabled Technology
With quick and simple setup of the optional Spektrum GPS Module (SPMA3173; sold independently), you can add next-level self-governing guidance functions that make it even much easier to find out to fly. With SAFE Plus added, you get:

AutoLand
Triggered by merely holding down a button, the advanced AutoLand function puts the aircraft on a stabilized method to land on its own near the GPS initialization point. You can even supply some directional guidance to avoid barriers or to change the method while letting the system do the rest to carry out a safe landing. As your abilities development and you acquire more confidence, you can take over more control inputs, eventually learning to land with no help from the automated system.

Holding Pattern
This beneficial SAFE Plus-exclusive feature allows you to "pause" the flight by putting the aircraft into a GPS-guided holding pattern. When triggered with the quick press of a button, the airplane will immediately go back to a position above the GPS initialization point and circle till the command is canceled with another quick press of the button. It's a great method to securely hand the controls off to a good friend or gain back visual contact if you ever lose sight of the model.

Virtual Fence
It's simple to unintentionally let an RC aircraft fly too far away, however with Virtual Fence, fret no more! It creates an invisible limit the aircraft will not fly past. When the aircraft reaches this limit, it will immediately turn around and fly back towards the GPS initialization point. Then it will "wag" the wings to let you know when you have control again.

 







Flight School Qualifying Trainer
This trainer design gets approved for use in the Horizon Hobby Flight School. As a trainer, this aircraft requires very little preparation to be flight-ready. It also includes SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology to help new pilots manage their designs. Purchase this product along with a three-month AMA trial membership to get started.
