A trainer, that's a jet, that's a trainer?! Watch me as I wrap my head around this out of the box concept in primary flight training.

Fitz, I recently started flying again and I found your videos to be among the best there is. I haven't seen you in a few years but enjoyed your Habu STS video and since I used to have the original Habu I bought one. Your flying still seems to be spot on and your on screen delivery is tops. Keep up the the good work!

I taught myself to fly on the origional habu years ago when it was first released. The platform makes a great trainer and survived to this day. Some dremel work, an 80mm habu 32 fan, and a 6s pack have kept it enjoyable to date. Nice video!

Nice video, love the addition of Knight Rider music.

I have one and I’ve had it for about 2ish months and I’m still too much of a wimp to do cool tricks, great video!

I bought the Habu starter set for the kids Christmas. Also bought a 4S smart battery and a better charger. We are looking forward to practicing on the simulator and then going out to the flying park.
Seeing you messing around with a huge smile on your face gives us confidence!
Keep those You Tubes coming.

Informative and entertaining...as always.

tank you sir for your helpful review of this a beginner, I never thought of trying to fly a jet, but now I might think about picking this model up on a

[BobbyMeeks]

Fantastic review, and your joy is addicting! Had to subscribe!

[CryptoSeven]

Great review and modest about your flying skills!

[saml]

Thank you so much for your videos. I am a complete Noob to flying. Thank you again

[geofkane]

Lovely, helpful and very informative video.

[jsoloughlin]

Great well explained video. Thanks. Oh what camera did you use for the onboard footage?

[anybodysguess]

Good job! Enjoyed your video.
I was wondering what you did to the jet mechanically when you first landed it to make adjustments.

Note: The flight controller has a barometer that works in conjunction with the Safe and Intermediate modes that also pitches the nose up if we are flying too low and a bit too fast for a landing. It is off when in Expert mode as expected. If you aren't aware of it, it is a bit disconcerting! Great flying plane, I'm loving mine especially on 4S (w/4000mAh G1 Smart battery).

[GRW]

Great video Fitz. Talking flight reviews are ++good. Using a camera that can zoom in on the plane is a separate gold star.

[homienat]

Enjoyed that was looking at getting 1 of these so might be a new 1 in the hanger 🤙🤙

[patricedequesne]

Hello and thank you for this habu test, especially for takeoffs in the grass! Many present the aircraft only in the ideal conditions of a hard runway take-off, which we do not all have at our disposal.

If you had to choose between a habu and a Viper as your first jet, what would be your choice and why.
Thank you again for your videos that I watch with pleasure!

I have found with SAFE to land you need to be at lowest throttle setting to get the plane to land. SAFE will not allow the planbe to drop if throttle is above idle.

Nice review.
The sim helpt me a lot to improve so now I am much more confident flying my planes, have yet to do the maiden on my habu.

[DanielvsBabylon]

Great video. I've ordered this jet and this is a great asset. Also I noticed you play civilization v, it's one of my favorites as well.
