World's FIRST RC SMART Jet for Beginners READY TO FLY - E-flite Habu STS - TheRcSaylors

This is truly the world's first completely ready to fly trainer rc jet, and it is brand new, the E-flite Habu STS!! Designed from the ground up, with beginner in mind, this brushless rc smart jet is made to fly slow on a 3s battery to help new pilots learn; however, this rc smart jet can be upgraded to 4s to progress with the pilot. It has a ton of technology packed into it which we discuss in this maiden flight video. Let us know your thoughts of the E-flite Habu STS rc smart jet in the comments!

I ended up getting this as my 1st plane. I flew it beautifully on the maden flight. Even went into expert mode and achieved a loop! Unfortunately, as I was landing, I lost lift due to the wind dying unexpectedly and I snapped the front landing gear off. Was able to order the brand new assembly for only $10 from horizon! Thanks for recommending this plane. I absolutely love it and the "free" rc simulator is amazing. I've never flown before. If anyone is on the fence, just do it. You won't regret it!!

You guys are the main reason I get on YouTube!!
👍👍

[echobeefpv]

So glad I support you guys, you are exactly the type of people I like to support in the hobby, no drama, no hype, but fun to watch, and informative !! This is the jet I've been looking for, but it is a prerelease, and here in Canada, wont see it till September !!Thats ok, because this is going to be one hot product !! I am really looking forward to adding this to my growing RC "fleet ". Keep it up, and happy summer to your family !!

Your videos are always premium quality and so much entertainment for me and others especially when we don't have the time or money to fly as frequently. The best part of your channel is a new video everyday, just like PewDiePie, and that every video is always NEW, never the same . I'll watch for a long time after even when I stop flying

My wife just got me this for Christmas!!! I have never flown a fixed wing before, so I was really worried that she got me something I could never use, but your video saved the day. Thank you so much!

Wow... over 14 minutes for an EDF jet? Not what I was expecting... great engineering. E-flite planes just keep getting better.

What a good deal you get a lot for 400 bucks wish this was available a few months ago before I bought a bunch of stuff including Real Flight

Finally this is what iv been waiting for. Only flown props never took the dive into edf but have wanted to for a long time. Great the tx works with other models with smart tec. Thanks Nate /Abs for another great vid!

Few points to note for others: (1) Make sure the wing hard-points in the body for the wing screws is properly glued into place - mine were but other folks found this was a problem (missing glue - QC issue) and glued them back themselves. (2) You will need to trim the front wheel control horn back a bit to keep it from contacting the plastic housing that holds the servo or it will bind/catch and not work right. HH should use a shorter control horn or just trim it back at the factory. (3) The SMART battery will come without the auto discharge setting turned on - I always set mine to 48Hours (personal preference) to help keep the battery happy. I used the XBC1000 to do this but the new SMART chargers can also do this. (4) Other who fly this plane on grass field have noted grass debris getting sucked into the fan intake and causing real problems - check it often and keep it cleaned out if dirty. Happy flying!

FWIW: Since it comes with the simulator, it would be a real good idea for new pilots to install it and practice a bit on the simulator with this plane BEFORE heading to the field for the first flight on this plane! This is my third plane in my stable (only one crash yet, minor fixes) and that is my plan.
My planes: AeroScout S 1.1M RTF (relearned to fly on it), Conscendo Evolution 1.5M BNF and now the Habu STS RTF. I also have the DX6e radio.

This will be my first RC plane for sure. Time to get in the air. Thank you Nate and Abby.

[kevintrappen]

That's a sweet trainer jet! Has everything!

[Joemamajoe]

Looks awesome I love your free videos and just you guys are awesome!

[MerryBoozerRC]

Coll plane nice to see a trainer that also looks cool. 3s and 4s is I nice option to keep the price down on battery’s and not having retracts help to keep things from getting broke. Video editing quality fantastic as always

[warmglassofwater]

Ok, not going to lie, this jet looks sick af. I'm looking into getting into the hobby and this one is super cool

[insurancemann]

What a great first jet! I wish they had this model when I started a few years ago, would have saved me thousands of dollars. I do think Horizon is teasing us who have been waiting on a new high speed Habu. Guess we have to keep waiting.

[Keon_MkIX]

I wish this came out when I was a beginner, what a steal!

[Jbels]

Thank you for sharing what may become my first RC plane in 20 years! I started with the S150 charger (on my RC car) and just recently moved to the S1100 and I love it. I look forward to your review of it!

[testtube]

Your review inspired me to buy my first jet. And guess, this was and is a great succes! Thanks!

[larryhewitt]

You're getting me closer to pulling the trigger on flying Rc! Thank you !
