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 !!

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!

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

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

Great review guys. I’m so happy to see this on your channel. I just got my habu last week. It was a quick assembly and I have been using the sim to get used to flying again. I can’t wait for some calm weather to get it in the air. Keep up the great work. Thanks.

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!!

@@Freddy007 oh man! How much I have progressed in 6 months!! The reason I crashed was because on a jet, the wing area is not as high, therefore you have to come in at a higher speed and let it just kind of touch down, where on the apprentice and other over wing, high wing area aircraft, you can really flair it to make a soft landing. That is unfortunate that you lost your wheel. I hope you were able to get it fixed and back in the air! Cheers to many more successful flights, friend!

@@Freddy007 you can’t go wrong with the Habu. It is quick, agile, and beginner to intermediate friendly. I fly my Habu without safe on, and I find it to be a much more enjoyable experience than when I used safe. On wicked windy days, I use safe to help me land, you just can’t beat the stabilization it offers🤷‍♂️. The BAE Hawk is pretty sweet, very quick and has no landing gear to mess up, and is pretty fun to fly and requires less space. Pretty much anything with SAFE tech you will be able to fly, it is a matter of what your budget is and what kinds of aircraft you are into. I started with a jet, and now fly the Bigfoot from arrows more than the jet, and I fly my F4U more than anything else, so it all really depends on where your passion is. Seems like I may have imposed more questions to consider than I answered, but good luck and keep that positive attitude.👍

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!

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!

Bunch of my friends surprised me with this present for my 42nd birthday this past weekend! I cannot wait to fly this thing, I have zero experience with RC planes, plenty of experience/own a bunch with 6S/8s RC cars. Love your channel by the way, very useful!

I've changed from wanting an Apprentice, to wanting one of these now! Thanks for the great review!

That's a sweet trainer jet! Has everything!

After having an a10 (cheap, from China, 10 years ago then moving on to drones after recking it horribly.) this is the next RC purchase. I am loving this, and looking forward to being able to get it. Appears it is back ordered, already, but I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much I appreciate your channel, honesty, and promotion of the hobby.

Ordered with extra 3S and 4S batteries, landing assist sensor, and charger. Not sure when it will arrive but I looking forward to flying it, but first on the computer simulator.

Always enjoy you vid,s🤙

Great beginning package and sweet looking Habu, well done HH. Fantastic video Abby and Nate, Jeff in LA USA

Thanks for another great video. That really is a neat RTF package whether you're into EDFs or not. I'd jump on something like the UMX Timber if it came in a similar RTF package.

My opinion is that they finally came up with a jet that you can land without tearing up the landing gear, This is state of the art training, Not a bad price either for everything you get, try buying all this separately and see where you land then

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.

I'm a new pilot since covid and already have 10 planes. Not going to buy that one! But somehow it got put on my list. Your enthusiasm is contagious, happy to see you two having such a great time.

Hi nate and a by and family I bought the eachine mini p51 Mustang flies really great and just ordered the habu St's I have just gone 50 years old in December and just getting into the hobby keep up the great videos and thanks

I love this plane. I just got mine and it’s perfect. The program and its upgradable. You can go up to a 6s. I’ve been waiting for this like you said I was scared of the edf. Thanks for the video.

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.

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

What transmitter do you recommend for use on both airplane and helicopters? Thx.. I'm thinking of the spektrum dx6e

I am going to buy this jet and I am learning a lot from this video.

Hi rc saylors my name is simon tomlinson from UK I am 50 years old and just bought mini p51 flies great but I love jets and have just ordered the e flite habu trainer jet as think looks great keep the great videos coming

Really like your show. Info for you. Lights on wings are used to tell which way plane is going. Red on the Left and Green on the right. Tells you if coming at you or going away. With water red channel marker on the right means going to shore and Green on right means going out to sea. Keep up the good work ‘. Roger Taylor

i am a total new bee your videos have gotten me into the hobby so thank you .im wondering what you think the next best upgrade transmitter should be in the future ?imstarting now with what came with my habu sts thedxs

Dang, you got it so fast you lucky SOB! Keep it real!

That's a perfect jet to get you into it. Hell, I might buy one and an extra 4s just to have myself an extra good time.

Love watching these 3 Habu videos again. After some great advice from a great pilot and person, looks like this will be my first EDF. Thanks to both of you Nate and Abbey. God bless. Do you know if the Realflite Dongle is still a part of the RTF package?

Well this looks like a good place to start in flying rc jets.

Awesome! I have an old HABU That I bought at the AMA Swapmeet in NJ 2 years ago for $45! 🤣🤣🤣. FLIES GREAT! I had to add Landing gear to it, and painted it Blue Angels colors! Lol. LOVE THIS HABU THO!!!

10 minutes flying time on that battery???? Unbelievable..WOW

I have the RealFlight 9 simulator but I dont have the E-flite Habu STS in my list of available planes. Do you know if I can download that particular plane because I think I have the latest version (9.00.022) of the software.

I want one! Great review!

AWSOME!

great video !... REALLY interested in this one !... :) when you take the package as a whole... it's a pretty great deal... when I start flying EDF, I will be looking at this one for sure... THX !... :D

Great video! I am also looking at the Habu 50mm. Question about this one...can I bind it with a different Spektrum DX6 transmitter? Is there a BNF option? Thanks

If you want to get some longer flight times and better speed the 5000mAh 4S fits. They are used in the E-Flite EC-1500. You shave just a little of the bottom of the cockpit and it fits perfect. Pretty big bump in performance and flight time.

Nate, on the Habu STS, there is nothing plugged into channel 1 on the flight controller. How is the throttle being managed??? I found a light kit that has an afterburner light that is controlled via the throttle, but,....?

Looks awesome!!! I pre ordered mine but in the PNP but will be using a stabilized receiver. Of course I will be posting a review on my Channel for my viewers and suscribers!! Great job Nate!!

Nice landing 👌 👍

Can this be buddy boxed at all, so joined to a trainer that has main control and can give control over to the person learning? Does the transmitter have a plug on the back for this or can it be Bluetoothed. Cheers

Nice and docile plane…will get one for my nephew.He’s still flying props planes. I think it’s time for him to upgrade his skills.

Hello TheRCsaylors for the transport of the jet we just disassembled the wing each time? Thanks

What would your opinion be of the Habu STS 70mm on a 3S battery in the Plug and Play version with a Spektrum AR631 Receiver? I would be using a NX8 Transmitter. Thank you both and God bless.
