This is the HobbyZone Super Cub S Bind-N-Fly Airplane. The HobbyZone® Super Cub has been one of the most popular trainer aircraft on the market thanks to its excellent looks and solid performance. This slow-flying, three-channel trainer makes adjusting to the sensation of flight an easy process. Horizon Hobby has integrated the revolutionary SAFE™ technology system into the Super Cub S to make it easier than ever to teach yourself to fly. With SAFE technology, pilots can fly the Super Cub S in three flight modes and have the option to use the intuitive panic button at any time to return the Super Cub S to steady flight at the push of a button.

Features:
  • Three-channel control and slow flight provide an excellent teach-yourself-to-fly experience
  • Intuitive SAFE™ technology provides three modes to give new pilots the ultimate progressive learning experience
  • If you lose control of the airplane, "Panic Mode" returns the aircraft to stable, level flight with the push of a button
  • Beginner and intermediate modes provide support for new pilots by limiting the roll and pitch of the airplane, keeping you in control at all times
  • Experienced mode allows pilots who have mastered the basics to explore the incredible performance of the Super Cub S aircraft supported by the revolutionary AS3X® stabilization system
  • Impact-resistant, durable Z-Foam™ construction is extraordinarily tough; but in case of damage, you can make repairs with almost any glue and be back in the air in minutes

HobbyZone Super Cub S BNF Airplane
I am an absolute beginner pilot and bought this plane because I wasn't sure that I was going to find any instruction to learn. This plane is a great beginner plane. The beginner mode makes it super simple in the air, and taking off and landing with the PANIC button made it stable to get it into and out of the air. I now have over 2 hours of stick time and 15 packs through it, without a single crash or damage to plane. This really inspires confidence as you're learning to fly. I've also now moved up to the intermediate mode and the plane is more maneuverable and fun. The plane grows with you.
I bought a Spektrum DS6i radio with the BNF plane and it was easy to program for the three flight modes following the instructions in the airplane manual.
