This might be THE BEST beginner RC Airplane - E-Flite Habu STS 70mm
Ғылым және технология
I never thought I would see the day where a RC Jet is the best flying airplane for a beginner to pick up and learn the hobby. But after flying this E-Flite Habu STS 70mm.. I was wrong!

I’m pausing the video at 9:00 minutes to commend you on how you instilled confidence in your girl and had total support for her….well done sir.
Love the way Jay talked about the sticks. Learned a lot today. I am beginner I hope you can explain more about handling sticks.
Man this was wholesome . Jets are the most fun imo ! Glad to see a beginner one . Keep this style of content coming !

Nice steady flight envelope great looking plane . Amazing
Seeing a beginner fly that plane really sold me on that model. Amazing. Well done!
She did great, the fifth landing was clean!
I love my Habu STS! Amazing is an understatement!
She did really well. I've been flying a long time and that was cool to watch.
Great video Jay!! This is an excellent flying plane for newbies and looks great in the air, thanks for sharing 👊🏼👊🏼

That’s amazing! Total beginner jet 🛩️. Gives confidence to anyone. Nice video bro! 👍🏻
Jay you are an expert pilot. I hope to pick this up soon
Thank you for posting this. I like it.
I have a boat and a truck always thought I would crash a plane, but you have given me confidence to get this one. I also didn't want a beginner looking plane even if that's what I should start out with. I'm really drawn to the jet. I like everything about them. It's one I could stay with for a longtime. My experience with RC has been the faster and more powerful it is the less fun it is.

I feel the exact opposite way with my boat and trucks/cars. Faster is always better! That said, this looks like a great way for me to start flying. I know I'll have one soon.
Best Video I've seen on this plane and even best way for a beginner. One of our RC club guys bought one and I plan to get him going on it. He currently flies the T-28 Trojan still in safe mode and now wants a jet :>)
Recently had this as a gift, it is amazing I got easy to fly. And remarkably sturdy after impact too. Lol

...OMG what a great and encouraging video you have made especially showing Cheyenne fly the Habu....some of the guys here at our field fly jets but with the speed they fly them...I never thought i would fly a jet but the Habu STS is my ticket to a jet thanks to you and your video.... thanks so much for your recommendation.... PS I love the sound of the Habu.... very jet like sound.....

sub'd so happy this showed up on my main page absolutely love the idea of buying this plane cheers, man
Awesome video bro, my prime rc battery for some reason also has the green lights telemetry and I don't think its a smart battery, nevertheless it gives me the plane battery reading on the dxs transmitter, I didn't expect it to work, but it does which I found interesting, great plane the Habu probably one of the best alround planes there is does everything 👌🏼
Absolutely awesome! I've never wanted a jet more! Looks great in the air and flies like an angel!
That was awesome. She did a great job. I'm in for this plane.

I recently got the e flight f 14 and struggling with the wing-sweep could you do a video on the Specktrum DXs controller

I love your videos jays im saving up for this ❤❤❤❤ i wish i can but it
I put a 6S Viper motor and fan in mine. It was a tight fit and the wings came off. It did a 100 miles an hour. Before she crashed. I flew at 5 or 6 times before the wings flew off.

Oh wow this is awesome
Should I buy this as my first plane or a mini aero scout? I had a non gyro Cessna before
That was really cool!
WI've just got one free from Amazon points! What reciever does it come with because I got the pnp instead of the rtf since I'm going to use my dx9 instead of the one that comes with the rtf since I fly everything else with it but I have all the as3x and safe recievers for it; would a 637t be okay instead of the flight controller?
this looks fun as hell
Does it come with the remote i have spektrum dx6 can i use it with this jet And what is the cost
That was a very good video brother. I actually watched the whole thing.

This plane flies AMAZINGLY SLOW for an EDF!! 10/10 on yelp🔥
You can put a 5000 milliamp battery in those things, too. And they fly a little slower, but they fly well for like 6 minutes
great video thanks
Great video buddy how much is this fantastic jet for beginner ?
In one configuration, I may consider at times taking off the gears and let it float over grass low and slow, and fast and low.
There are other makes to the mighty pricey Eflite.. I recommend "Arrows hobby Marlin" for a small basic beginner edf jet. It has rudder, ailerons, elevator, steerable nose wheel AND FLAPS. Marlin is a nice fast flier. And a nice slow flier with flaps. Fly with wheels, or take them off and fly hand launched. Really can't be bettered as a basic EDF trainer.

Whats the price
Do you think one could add a motion sick fpv camera inside?
You can actually see how stable it is. I'll have to remember this plane so I can buy it some day. I currently do not own any rc planes.

Couple years back I had an f-18 hornet in the blue angel design , had it shipped from banana hobbies in LA to Scotland ….had it in the back garden 10 mins later the sun had melted the nose cone !! never flew it , shame it cost near on £900…I’d probably have crashed it lol it was capable of 100 mph …my first RC Plane 😂

Get a Spectrum transmitter. Depending what you plan on flying 6-8 channel is usually a good starting point! Batteries range depending on the models you choose. I run a variety, SMC.. Spectrum.. & BOLT
I inquired about the jet and they wanted over 450 pounds while a lot of the others were only a 100 and something pounds are they taking advantage of beginners I just can’t afford it but I want a jet that’s easy for me as a beginner?
I have Mastered bush planes and I'm wondering if this would be a good jet trainer? Or is it a little to basic? If so what's the best jet trainer?

You gotta keep the flood up on this to keep it in the air dude. It’ll fall out of the sky if you go less than 30%
every time i try to get someone to fly for the first time, no matter how many times i tell them what’s up and what’s down they always do it backwards and ending up cakeing the plane it breaking the prop.
Shit I’m sold!
Looks like a great plane. Shame it doesn’t have retracts. Hardest thing for beginners is getting your head around how the sticks are backwards when your flying back towards you. Safe mode on beginners planes is fantastic but it does lull you into a false sense of security. Planes are moving fast and things can go bad really quick when you flick it off safe mode. I reckon a true first timer beginner is better off to fly the mini beginner planes. They don’t impact so hard if you crash.
Dude, no way, a beginner isnt going to fly like that!!

Watch toward the end you’ll see my girl fly lol
I feel like Carbon Cub S 2 is a better beginner plane IMO. I understand the argument on the propeller, but the landing gear on the Carbon Cub S 2 is stronger and if you stuff the nose of the cub, you're less likely to break it as it has a thicker build than the jet. Also, that DXS transmitter it comes with sucks for telemetry. I purchased a kit that came with it with the recommended battery and at full charge and turn on, it's immediately showing 1 solid one flash like yours does. It also chimes dead battery at what I could consider the last possible second because you really have the time it takes to land before you're critical if you rely on the chime. You shouldn't but it would be nice if it was an actual backup rather than whatever issue it is.
