I can confirm this thing is quite durable I can say from experience from crashing through a tree hit a shed and landed in a backyard and came out with some scratched up foam and a disconnected servo quick and easy fix great plane!

Always loved the haubu. Happy to see it back

Classic design with modern tech, love it.

I like this type of promotional video, that it is both entertaining and informative.

Wow! One you can hand launch it and it's so stable! Got my eye on this one!

Yes please, i need that Jet. And its easy to hand launch. Cant wait to fly it.

Looks like a fun little edf. The ones I've seen previously were either insanely expensive or kind of janky (bolt-on edf as an alternative to a prop). Something clean with good beginner performance that you can also buy parts for would be a winner

This is my dream plane always been but nervous of a jet this looks awesome

Very nice plane. Might have to get me one this week

Thanks for introducing i will buy it now

This is a must have!!!

Love it👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼🔥🔥

Quick question ! If I change the esc to 80amp could I run an 5s ?

With the PNP model of the Habu, what would be a good receiver to pair with a Spektrum NX6 transmitter?

Nice, could well be my first EDF

1:55 were the 2 hand launches shown with the included 3s battery or the optional 4s battery?

It’s back!

Does the Habu SS landing gear fit on this Habu STS in hopes to reduce bounce on paved runway?

Can’t wait for mine to arrive😎

Did you get it? How do you like it?

since there is no BNF version:(. where can I find this ar636 file you talked about? Would love to set up one of my receivers and buy the pnp version and still have safe and a factory tune. A video explaining how to do it all would be even better, but any help would be appreciated since it's impossible to get through to phone support. PS I looked on the spektrum website and didn't see anything listed for this plane. BTW I'd pay the extra for a bnf. Its a bummer.

I have the sensei fs and I love it!!!!! Now I need this !!!!!!!!!! Flys just like it but in jet form and faster!!!! Lol 👍

IMHO, Let's see - Three awesome VERY informative videos by Jason explaining just about anything and everything you would want to know about Horizon Hobby's (HH) LATEST, GROUND BREAKING and REVOLUTIONIZING RC industry INVENTION AND the forth video by the INCOMPARABLE Ali and HH company showing how this jet leaves just about no doubt how WIDE a flying envelope this INCREDIBLE jet has to offer to the BEGINNER through the different levels of flying skills up to EXPERIENCED. I truly believe that you get AT LEAST TWO JETS in/for ONE with this INVENTION, and INVENTION indeed because NO manufacture has EVER made a "FIRST TIME, LEARNING to FLY" BEGINNER TRAINER JET. Isn't technology GREAT!!! - Thank you HH for thinking "out of the box".... AGAIN and making this hobby APPROACHABLE and ENJOYABLE to SOOO many more people that may have never thought of trying this hobby out. I can say that from numerous experiences I have seen at the flying field. 🙏😊

Amazing how smooth this jet flies! And it looks easy too, aslong as one start off with beginner mode x) i will order this beast next payday 😁

This has been my first ever rc plane and when they say durable I'm not sure what that means but I assumed it's Latin for Tuff as fark!because mine has taken some pretty hard emergency landings and I'm sure mine was sent back in time and originally built by skynet because the first time up and she was a screaming eagle and then i got the power warning ....ohh what do i do now???I looked at my six year old son and said"this is your captain speaking please lock your meal trays in the upright position bring your seats forward and brace for impact"and he looked and said"huh?"I quickly replied "do as I say now....grab the dog and run for it" I reckon she hit the cricket pitch at half speed nose slightly dipped bounced then bounced again this time about 50mtrs more than allowed for just after the second bounce it cleared a wire fence minus the front landing gear that fell there and then expecting to see nothing but little foam balls I finally got to the fence looked over and there it was perfectly intact with the red battery light just visible under the now unclipped cockpit as a voice came from it that sounded like it said ...John Connor?.... and she still flies beautifully!!!....and my landings have improved a ton as well.....thank you elite.....skyne

I’m buying it now 😂

It can fly that slow?! I would of loved to learn to fly on this!

Looks like another winner HH, like being able to use 4s and the larger wheels, well done, Jeff in LA USA

How fast can it go on a 3s 4000 mah?

Awesome

Seems a little too expensive The ready to fly Version is 399$ That’s $100 more than the 70mm F16 and that has retracts, 6s compatible motor and it’s a lot bigger, but thank you for making another jet keep up the good work

@HorizonHobbyProducts

That's definitely not an apples to apples comparison...especially because the F-16 is BNF Basic and the Habu STS is an RTF ;) The RTF version of the Habu STS includes a Spektrum DXS transmitter which is a $99.99 value ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/dxs-transmitter-only/SPMR1010.html ), a Spektrum Smart 3S 4000mAh 30C battery which is a $54.99 value ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/4000mah-3s-11.1v-smart-lipo-battery-30c-ic3/SPMX40003S30.html ), a Spektrum Smart 120 charger which is a $19.99 value ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/s120-usb-c-smart-charger-1x20w/SPMXC1020.html ), RealFlight Trainer Edition which is a $39.99 value ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/realflight-trainer-edition-for-steam-download-only/RFL1205D.html ) and a Spektrum WS2000 Wireless USB Simulator Dongle which is a $39.99 value ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/ws2000-wireless-simulator-usb-dongle/SPMWS2000.html ). Those components alone add up to $254.95, which means you're basically getting the Habu STS with a 70mm fan and motor, 70A telemetry-capable ESC, 5 servos, a flight controller and receiver for $145 at the RTF package price of $399.99. That's also only $50 more than the E-flite Apprentice STS RTF ($349.99), and $100 more than the HobbyZone Carbon Cub S 2 RTF ($299.99), which actually makes the Habu STS RTF a very good value overall when compared to other popular RTF trainers!

I just received the Habu STS PNP last week was wondering if on page 19 of the manual on elevator trimming is correct. It says to trim upwards if the habu drifts downward. This is the opposite direction of trimming my other 6 eflite prop planes that I own.

We just looked at page 19 in the manual here: www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/dw1ff64496/Manuals/EFL01500-manual-en.pdf And yes, unfortunately the wrong direction is shown for elevator trimming! If any airplane is drifting downward you should add "up" trim by pulling back/down on the elevator trim lever. Our many apologies for this error and we will have it corrected as soon as possible!

If i get the RTF Model, can i bind it to a new Nx8 with the same saveselect switch too?

@HorizonHobbyProducts

2 жыл бұрын

Yes! SAFE will automatically be assigned to the A switch on the NX8. That is a 2-position switch so you will only be able to use the Beginner and Experienced flight modes with that "default" configuration. If you want to use the Intermediate mode as well, you will simply need to assign Channel 5 to the 3-position B switch instead (this is very quick and easy to do in the NX8!). Then you will have the same Beginner, Intermediate and Experienced modes as the stock DXS transmitter.

Does realflight basic come with the pnp version

@HorizonHobbyProducts

4 жыл бұрын

RealFlight Trainer Edition is not included with the PNP version because it requires a Spektrum transmitter and USB dongle (which are included with the RTF version), or the Spektrum InterLink DX USB simulator controller. However, RealFlight Trainer Edition is available separately for $39.99: www.horizonhobby.com/product/realflight-trainer-edition-for-steam-download-only/RFL1205D.html

Cool plane. When will it be available in Europe? Will it also come in a BNF version?

@HorizonHobbyProducts

4 жыл бұрын

The first shipments are on the way to our EU warehouse now and should be arriving around the middle of August! Also, no BNF Basic option for this one due to the added cost associated with the flight controller (which includes a barometer that offers the "invisible floor" functionality, makes upgrading to the LAS and other functions possible) and serial receiver included in the RTF version. Those cost more than an AR636 or AR637T receiver, and would have made the price for a BNF Basic version about $60 more than the PNP version.

The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/habu-sts-70mm-edf-smart-jet-rtf-with-safe-1029mm/EFL01500.html ) includes the transmitter, receiver/flight controller, battery and charger. The Plug-N-Play (PNP) version ( www.horizonhobby.com/product/habu-sts-70mm-edf-jet-smart-pnp-1029mm/EFL01575.html ) does not include any of those items (they must be purchased/supplied separately). The RTF version is for people new to the hobby and who do not own any or all of the required components/equipment. The PNP version is more for experienced RC pilots who already own some or all of the required components/equipment: "The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version includes everything needed to fly in one box and is the perfect choice if you're a new RC pilot. From the Spektrum DXS 2.4GHz transmitter you can use with other Bind-N-Fly® (BNF) and BNF Basic aircraft after you learn to fly the Habu STS, to the 3S 4000mAh Smart LiPo battery and a convenient S120 USB-C Smart charger that can be used with a variety of USB power sources, there's nothing extra you need to buy or provide! A Plug-N-Play® (PNP) version lets experienced modelers choose and use their own transmitter, receiver, battery and charger. And for both versions, the powerful brushless power system including a telemetry-capable ESC and the servos are all factory-installed."
