Habu STS 70mm EDF Jet PNP (EFL01575)

Nearly everyone who sees a radio controlled (RC) jet tear across the sky has the same reaction: "I want to fly one of those!" However, RC jets have been challenging for first-time or low-time RC pilots to fly successfully, until the E-flite Habu STS (Smart Trainer with SAFE) 70mm EDF jet. This model enables you to learn to fly RC airplanes successfully with a jet. The Habu STS 70mm EDF is based on the legendary Habu, renowned as one of the best high-performance Electric Ducted Fan (EDF) sport jet platforms ever created. The design has been optimized to enhance low-speed handling and performance, incorporating exclusive Spektrum SAFE flight assistance technology and innovative Smart components. Consequently, the Habu STS 70mm EDF stands out as the easiest to fly RC jet EVER and is the ideal choice for any RC pilot wishing to experience flying a jet.

Engineered for improved low-speed handling and performance, the E-flite Habu STS (Smart Trainer with SAFE) 70mm EDF allows individuals to succeed in learning to fly with a jet as their first radio-controlled (RC) airplane. The aircraft comes with SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology, featuring Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced flight modes to facilitate successful flying, particularly with the assistance of an instructor. The exclusive Spektrum Smart components include a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery and charger, making it convenient to charge safely. The aircraft's wide-stance tricycle landing gear, with a steerable nose wheel and oversized tires, permits takeoffs and landings on various surfaces, including paved runways, grass, and dirt. An optional Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) is available to automatically "flare" for smoother landings, aiding the learning process. The durable EPO airframe assembles quickly and easily, eliminating the need for glue or special tools, enabling you to be ready to fly in less time than it takes to charge a battery.

The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version includes everything needed to fly in a single package, making it perfect for new RC pilots. The Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter can be utilized with other Bind-N-Fly (BNF) and BNF Basic aircraft once you learn to fly the Habu STS. Additionally, the package includes a 3S 4000mAh Smart LiPo battery and a convenient S120 USB-C Smart charger, which can be used with various USB power sources, ensuring there is nothing extra to purchase or provide. The Plug-N-Play (PNP) version allows experienced modelers to select and use their own transmitter, receiver, battery, and charger. Both versions come with a powerful factory-installed brushless power system, telemetry-capable ESC, and servos.

In Experienced Mode, the Habu STS 70mm EDF is capable of performing aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, and inverted flight. You can utilize a 3S battery for an optimal balance of power and flight time or install an optional 4S battery for increased speed and thrust without the necessity for modifications or upgrades.
