Novice, Intermediate and Knowledgeable modes enable you to pick the level of stability and control you require, or are ready to try, at the flip of a switch.

The HobbyZone® Sport Cub S 2 makes finding out to fly RC airplanes in more locations and smaller spaces easier than ever! Based on one of the most popular trainer aircraft ever developed for finding out to fly radio controlled (RC) airplanes—the legendary Sport Cub S —it's ultra-micro size makes it the ideal choice for a smaller trainer model that can be flown in big backyards, little parks, soccer fields, football fields and other ideal spaces where larger models can't generally be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Install the optional float set (EFLUA1190, sold individually) and you can add big pools and little ponds to the list of locations you can fly! Special SAFE® (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) innovation helps to prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation and crashes so almost everybody can find out to fly successfully. Novice, Intermediate and Knowledgeable modes enable you to pick the level of stability and control you require, or are ready to try, at the flip of a switch. Plus you can instantly return to steady flight using Panic Recovery in any flight mode. This makes the Sport Cub S 2 a natural development of the trainer many pilots found out to fly with because it consists of all of the exact same fantastic functions, while also adding brand-new telemetry abilities that send flight battery voltage to the transmitter to make the pilot much better familiar with roughly just how much "power" remains.
And the fun doesn't stop after you find out how to fly! It's lightweight yet durable airframe is equipped with a powerful electrical motor that provides long flight times and offers a lot of speed and power to carry out aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls and even inverted (upside down) flight. That means the Sport Cub S 2 is a model even experienced pilots will appreciate and enjoy flying – and can also utilize to teach others to fly. The Bind-N-Fly® Standard variation is the perfect choice for those pilots because it permits them to utilize their favorite Spektrum™ transmitter together with batteries and chargers they might currently own. And the Ready-To-Fly variation is perfect for first-time pilots because it consists of a Spektrum™ controller/transmitter equipped with industry-leading DSMX® 2.4GHz innovation, AA batteries for the transmitter, plus a rechargeable LiPo flight battery and USB charger. That means there's absolutely nothing extra to purchase or supply! Best of all both variations show up 100% factory-assembled and ready to go right out of package – no assembly required!

SAFE technology
 

Learn to Fly Successfully with SAFE® Innovation
If this is your first RC airplane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) innovation prevents over-control and crashes. It also offers numerous flight modes to provide more control and abilities as your abilities progress at the flip of a switch:

Novice Mode

In this flight mode, the airplane has pitch (up/down) and bank (left/right) angle restricts that prevent over-control which could lead to a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the airplane automatically returns to level flight enabling you to relax and enjoy merely 'guiding' the airplane through the sky. Best of all, launches are as simple as providing full throttle and letting the airplane fly off a suitable surface, or by providing it a fast hand launch over surfaces such as lawn, and landings are as easy as decreasing the throttle and letting it glide to a landing by itself.

Beginner Mode
 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode permits more flexibility in pitch and bank, however still prevents considerable over-control and the airplane does not return to level flight by itself. This permits you to make tighter turns and to climb up and come down quicker as your abilities advance.

Intermediate Mode
 

Knowledgeable Mode

In this flight 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 including loops, rolls, stall turns and more.

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Recovery

If you lose control of the airplane in the Intermediate or Knowledgeable flight modes, merely trigger the Panic Recovery mode with the push of a button and release the control sticks. SAFE innovation will automatically return the airplane to level flight.

Rated 5 stars Great beginner to intermediate small plane
By David H on January 4, 2021

Binded fine with my Spektrum. I think it is the customers responsibility to determine if what they are buying is compatible with their transmitter. Anyway, it flies awesome, so easy and intuitive. Flies slowly very well and is a great plane for beginners. My Dad is 75, had never flown RC and was having a blast with this after a couple of hours of crashes on grass that didn't harm the plane.

Rated 5 stars Great beginner plane. Don't need to worry if you crash too much.
By Easton S on March 20, 2021   Verified Purchase

Don't be stupid like me and keep your eyes on your plane at all times while flying. I did a nose dive and broke a prop and the gearbox, but that's no issue with the plane, in fact, it took the hit like a chap and the entire chassis is fine otherwise. SAFE works incredibly well and it's great for a new pilot. Highly recommend

Rated 2 stars Does not bind to DSM2
By Tedd H on September 28, 2020   Verified Purchase

The Sport Cub seems like a great plane but would not bind to my Orangerx T-SIX DSM2 transmitter. Vortex hobbies was extremely helpful and traded it for a PT-17 that binded as advertised.
