Introduction
The HobbyZone® Sport Cub S 2 is based upon one of the all-time most popular trainer aircraft ever created for learning to fly radio controlled (RC) aircrafts—the famous Sport Cub S. It's ultra-micro size makes it the ideal option for a smaller sized trainer model that can be flown in yards, parks, soccer fields, football fields and other ideal areas where larger designs can't generally be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Unique SAFE® (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) innovation helps to avoid overcontrol, loss of orientation and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully. Newbie, Intermediate and Experienced modes allow you to choose the level of stability and control you require, or are prepared to attempt, at the flip of a switch.

The HobbyZone® Sport Cub S 2 makes learning to fly RC aircrafts in more places and smaller areas easier than ever! Based on one of the most popular trainer aircraft ever created for learning to fly radio controlled (RC) aircrafts—the famous Sport Cub S —it's ultra-micro size makes it the ideal option for a smaller sized trainer model that can be flown in big yards, small parks, soccer fields, football fields and other ideal areas where larger designs can't generally be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Install the optional float set (EFLUA1190, sold independently) and you can add big swimming pools and small ponds to the list of places you can fly! Unique SAFE® (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) innovation helps to avoid overcontrol, loss of orientation and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully. Newbie, Intermediate and Experienced modes allow you to choose the level of stability and control you require, or are prepared to attempt, at the flip of a switch. Plus you can quickly return to stable flight using Panic Recovery in any flight mode. This makes the Sport Cub S 2 a natural development of the trainer many pilots discovered to fly with because it includes all of the very same excellent features, while also including brand-new telemetry capabilities that send out flight battery voltage to the transmitter to make the pilot better knowledgeable about approximately how much "power" remains.

It's lightweight yet long lasting airframe is geared up with a powerful electric motor that provides long flight times and supplies plenty 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 design even experienced pilots will value and enjoy flying – and can also use to teach others to fly. The Bind-N-Fly® Fundamental variation is the best option for those pilots because it permits them to use their favorite Spektrum™ transmitter in addition to batteries and battery chargers they may already own. And the Ready-To-Fly variation is best for first-time pilots because it includes a Spektrum™ controller/transmitter geared up 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 additional to purchase or provide!

SAFE technology
 

Discover to Fly Successfully with SAFE® Innovation
If this is your very first RC airplane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) innovation avoids over-control and crashes. It also provides several flight modes to deliver more control and capabilities as your skills progress at the flip of a switch:

Newbie Mode

In this flight mode, the airplane has pitch (up/down) and bank (left/right) angle restricts that avoid over-control which could lead to a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the airplane immediately goes back to level flight enabling you to relax and enjoy just 'guiding' the airplane through the sky. Most importantly, takeoffs are as simple as giving full throttle and letting the airplane fly off a suitable surface, or by giving it a fast hand launch over surface areas such as lawn, and landings are as easy as reducing the throttle and letting it glide to a landing on its own.

Newbie Mode
 

Intermediate Mode

This flight mode permits more liberty in pitch and bank, however still avoids considerable over-control and the airplane does not return to level flight on its own. This permits you to make tighter turns and to climb and come down faster as your skills advance.

Intermediate Mode
 

Experienced Mode

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

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Recovery

If you lose control of the airplane in the Intermediate or Experienced flight modes, just activate the Panic Recovery mode with the push of a button and release the control sticks. SAFE innovation will immediately return the airplane to level flight.

Rated 5 stars Great way to start a kid flying or just for fun!
By Jim M on July 14, 2022   Verified Purchase

Great plane and easy to fly. My kid has put hours of flight time on it with no problems. I'm thinking I want a small one like this to fly in the park.
