SAFE technology
 

Learn to Fly Effectively with SAFE® Technology
If this is your very first RC airplane, Horizon Hobby-exclusive SAFE (Sensor Helped Flight Envelope) technology avoids over-control and crashes. It likewise uses numerous flight modes to provide more control and abilities as your skills advance at the flip of a switch:

Newbie Mode

In this flight mode, the airplane has pitch (up/down) and bank (left/right) angle limits that prevent over-control which might lead to a loss of orientation and crashes. When the control sticks are released, the airplane immediately returns to level flight permitting you to relax and enjoy simply 'steering' the airplane through the sky. Most importantly, takeoffs are as basic as providing full throttle and letting the airplane fly off an appropriate surface area, or by providing it a fast hand launch over surface areas such as grass, 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 allows more freedom in pitch and bank, but still avoids significant over-control and the airplane 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.

Intermediate Mode
 

Skilled 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 consisting of loops, rolls, stall turns and more.

Experienced Mode
 

 

Panic Recovery

If you lose control of the airplane in the Intermediate or Skilled flight modes, simply trigger the Panic Recovery mode with the push of a button and release the control sticks. SAFE technology 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.
