Description:

Watching an RC jet streak across the sky sparks the same thought in almost everyone: “I want to fly one of those!” Until recently, however, the speed and precision required to fly RC jets made them unrealistic for beginner pilots. That changes with the E-flite® Habu STS (Smart Trainer with SAFE®) 70mm EDF Jet, the first RC jet specifically engineered to help new pilots learn successfully.

Built on the legendary Habu platform—one of the most respected EDF sport jets ever created—the Habu STS has been carefully refined to improve low-speed handling, slow-flight stability, and landing control. Combined with exclusive Spektrum™ SAFE® flight assistance technology, this aircraft delivers the easiest and most confidence-inspiring RC jet experience available today.

Designed with beginners in mind, the Habu STS features SAFE® flight modes—Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced—that allow pilots to progress at their own pace. A wide-stance tricycle landing gear with a steerable nose wheel and oversized tires enables smooth takeoffs and landings on pavement, grass, or dirt. For even easier landings, an optional Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) can be installed to automatically flare the jet during touchdown.

The durable EPO airframe assembles quickly without glue or special tools, meaning you can be airborne in less time than it takes to charge a battery. The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basic version includes nearly everything required to fly, allowing you to choose your preferred battery and charger setup. Factory-installed electronics include a powerful brushless motor, telemetry-capable ESC, and precision servos.

Once you’ve mastered the basics, the Habu STS continues to deliver excitement. In Experienced Mode, it performs aerobatic maneuvers such as loops, rolls, and inverted flight. Fly with a 3S battery for balanced performance and long flight times, or install a compatible 4S battery for increased speed and thrust—no modifications required.

For additional training, the Habu STS is compatible with RealFlight® Trainer Edition and the Spektrum™ WS2000 simulator dongle (sold separately), allowing you to practice at home using the included transmitter before heading to the field.
