I bought this for my first plane. Been flying drones for years. Practiced on real flight simulator. This weekend I finally flew for my first time! I did 3 flights and no crashes! I need advice on a good charger and discharge now.

[@williamslater8741]

Awesome video guys. I agree if I was to get a plane and it was hard to fly and wreck it I would probably be turned off. If it’s easy to fly you would want to fly again and again. I love my Holy Stone. I’m always going to the front door to see if windy... God bless you guys

[@Harossi79]

As good as SAFE is at a low altitude, it can turn ugly at a higher altitude where the wind picks up. I was flying my SportCub S2 as a beginner and couldn't bring it back. The wind was moving it further and higher, until I lost control. I was lucky to find it on a field 1 mile away. If I knew more about it back then I would have switched it into Advanced mode and made the nose dive a lot more, accelerating at the same time. If the wind picks up while you are above 100 ft, SAFE will not help you at all.

[@Inquisitor_Hackedicht]

Got the same problem with the delta ray one, okay sure not the same category but i think its the same SAFE technology. People need to know that

[@f1matt]

I LOVE the technology in RC planes now! I picked up a Sport Cub S version 2 (your review helped) and wow! It completely took the fear and stress out of learning how to fly! So happy I have finally been able to take the plunge into this hobby!

Awesome video. I know different people like different things but as you guys said the first cub came with GPS, landing assist, radio etc all for £279 and now this version all that apart from radio is optional and is £330 here in the Uk.

The fact that you're feeling restricted by SAFE means you are graduating to the next level as a rc pilot. I couldn't stand SAFE on my thunderbird.

I have the GPS version.. with landing assist etc. Landing was OK with no trees around, GPS crapped out and plane disappeared with no control. Repaired plane and now have an ar636 rx in it with the profile for the 2.1m version installed on it. Just SAFE on or off and imo makes it loads better. Great flying Abby! 👍

Last year i made a comment, "today is a good day to die," i was serious and was at a very low time in my life and was suicidal but i got help and now im great. I am on disability and have a lot of time so im getting into offroad 1/8th scale hpi savage flux my friend is selling me for way low price and you have both inspired me to fly. Never thought i would. Im getting this plane as my first one and am excited about it. You guys are awesome and i love your channel. Ty for your videos. If any of your viewers are dealing with suicidal thoughts, take a break, get help and call an ambulance like i did. Its not weakness to get help.

Now we're talking! 😁 I've heard nothing but good reviews on this plane. I personally chose the Valiant for my 1st plane but due to weather I have yet to even assemble it 😒 I have however downloaded the RC SAYLORS version of the Valiant and been practicing almost every day on my RF9 flight simulator. Hopefully it Flys as well in real life as it does on the sim!🙏 Question: will I have telemetry on my Valiant with the DX8E Transmitter?? If not how could I get it? Btw...when can I expect my patreon stickers? Looking forward to those!

[@ghosttargets9288]

I purchased this Carbon Cub, and for the most part feel it was a good value. I will say however, that the plane is very light and is a handful in stiff winds in any mode. Also it does not land well in a stiff wind as it is difficult to get it to descend without applying allot of "nose down".

[@jasenfontana4426]

I've noticed with the eachine micro warbirds that has the same 3 step assist they always wanted to climb and was hard to nose down in beginner. Found if I put it in advanced and set the trim so it flew level the trim would stay When switched back to beginner mode. Now they fly level in beginner mode and is easier to nose down while in beginner mode.

[@FarrellMcGovern]

A few observations...first of all, the cowling covering the landing gear struts were on upside down. The wide part is supposed to be against the fuselage, not the narrow part. That is probably why they popped off during Abby's landing. Next, it is interesting that the wings have vortex generators on them. Those little nibs at the top of the curvature of the wings are vortex generators that are designed to help keep the flow of the air over the wing from separating and thus stalling. Very nice for low and slow flying on a full-sized plane, but I don't know how much good they would do on a scale plane. Abby's flying was great today. It's definitely a challenge to figure out how a new plane flies, and how it's technology works with your flying style. That was an awesome save on the other side of the runway! Nice flight!

[@SiR2Dean]

Vortex generators make zero difference on model imo. Makes it look more scale but yeah, that's all..

[@Sinn3246]

I think this plane will be my first.

[@adrianclay3472]

It’s a shame the landing gear is upside down!

Hello Brian, well….thats good enough for me then! Forget those guys. I guess I’m getting my first FMS through your link…$500 coming your way. Than you as always, Anthony

[@BrandonH88102]

I got this plane when it first came out. First time I ever flew. Within two flights was doing all sorts of loops and rolls and completely off safe. Now I have four planes (this, umx a-10, carbon z cessna 150, and the twin otter) and a dx9. You can say I have really enjoyed flying lately. Currently charging up batteries to hopefully be able to fly tomorrow morning if the weather cooperates. I absolutely recommend this plane to anyone who is thinking about starting out. The wheels are great for landing in grass because not everyone has a nice paved runway to take off and land on. The SAFE is great for being able to progress and do some more aggressive flying, but still have that safety net if you lose orientation or something for a second. Also a great flight time. While flying conservatively I was able to get almost 26 minutes out of the included battery. Absolutely amazing plane. Great size, not too big that you absolutely have to take it apart to transport (people with smaller vehicles may have to take the wings off) but not too small that it has to be dead calm (however I do recommend flying on as calm of a day as possible for at least your first few flights)

[@mr.garrison6947]

To make those planes lose altitude do circles

[@joegroves2517]

So I'm not sure quite how it tells but apparently at 50ft and lower the Intermediate Mode just switches over to become Beginner Mode, I guess because otherwise it wouldn't have time to correct mistakes? I think it'll be really confusing with Intermediate, hard to tell how things will respond, probably should just switch between Beginner and Advanced? I just got this guy but had to send it back to be worked on because the electronics were messed up out of the box. Horizon sent me a controller so I can still use the simulator while the whole package is in the shop though which was really cool of them. So while it's a bummer and isn't resolved yet, so far they're giving some of the best support I've had with anything. So I'll be another new pilot trying to learn with this plane soon I hope.

If you tend to nose dive crash a lot then the aeroscout is better but overall I like this on better but if you crash a lot you will go through too many props. The aeroscout has a rear prop so it is more resilient

Nice plane . to me over priced nate .but then horizon hobby can't compete with bangood s

[@TheRcSaylors]

Yeah you are absolutely correct! The prices of things at Horizon are generally higher than most of their competitors. Id say the main reason for this is overall quality, and the fact that their customer service is based here in the States, so we as consumers have to pay for those employees salaries which are higher than overseas "customer service". I love a good quality product with good customer service, and I love a good deal on the slow boat from China, so either way I can't really complain. It really is just what makes sense for you, and as long as you are having fun and not hurting anyone, you win! 😁

[@felixsrcworld5112]

why you guys not review a balsa plane

[@bendrixbailey1430]

Very poorly documented kit.Not only are the directions wrong with regard to those screws, they are also wrong on the installation of the GPS. The cub manual says there is a “pocket” with a “lid” and there is not. There is a place you can sit the GPS module on top of the receiver, but nothing to secure it in place, so I guess you have to tape it. In order to find the GPS plug in the receiver you have to wrench the receiver out of the plane cause its mounted with double sided tape, not velcro or a strap. Forget trying to reach technical support. They claim on the website to have a phone support but... no number to call anywhere. If you try to chat, you’ll never get through, but you will get told to try again later after waiting for 15 minutes. If you want to email support you cannot because they don’t have an email address. They do have a form but it is limited in characters to very few so there is not enough space to explain what your problem is. There is no manual either at Horizon or Spektrum for either the GPS module or the receiver. I did buy this model, GPS and a transmitter but I’ll never buy from them again. With ZERO customer support, incorrect manuals and no online support, no KZbin videos this company has no respect for customers. Just the worst post sale support and documentation I’ve every experienced. It’s truly a fraud to accept people’s money and then provide inaccurate documentation, no documentation and no access to support.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Clearly you are incorrect. I, or anyone in this hobby can pick up the phone and get a human on the line right now and get American support for this plane. This is of course assuming you purchased it through our link. 🤔

@@TheRcSaylors Ill stand corrected if you can send me a link to the URL where a phone number is posted on their website.

[@koalatails6391]

I’ve seen a video of the original cub where it got to the geofence and turned straight into a stadium light pole. So the new cub makes more sense to me. I recently purchased a biplane with “Safe” technology, & had difficulty getting the plane to settle onto the ground on landing. I’m now wondering if this was caused partly because I was using Safe while landing. I’m not familiar with the characteristics of the airframe or the technology. Fortunately the ugly landing cause zero damage, the weather has prevented a 2nd flight, but I’m keen to fly the newest addition to my fleet again.

I just got one without the assist, so in beginning mode when landing you shouldn't power up just cut power? Cus the first thing I do is land it a few times. I heard they like to climb.

[@rctrucks2094]

Yes I find this airplane being super hard to land in safe because there is barely any down elevator. Generally it will stall before hitting the ground unless you turn off safe to land faster. Also it is very bouncy and the landing gear is flimsy but overall it is the most durable and easy to fly plane apart from a umx cub

[@giuseppedesimone4133]

Sorry this plane don't have gps and safe landing included? im look the manual and it tells me they're not installed ,do they install separately? Thank you👍😊

From nerves to excitement to terror! Good video. Can the xk450 radio be bound to this or any other BNF?

[@TheRcSaylors]

Yes, with the proper reciever. The one that comes in the BNF version of this, no. Hope this helps! 😀👍⚓😎

[@gazzabyerun9556]

💯 It would be cool if they made ski's for these planes besides floats for us snow bound people! Also would be nice for Horizon Hobby to bring back there Easy Pay option for the high dollar RC stuff they sell, i was told they had tech issues by them , but that was months ago! So what's the next excuse will they have next! Just saying...

[@TheRcSaylors]

Hey, we totally agree! Bring back the Easy Pay! Not a fan of their website migration, as most of us are not. It broke all of our "old links" and caused us a ton of work that we are still not caught up on. Right there with you Gazza. Still, they do make great RCs!! 😀👍⚓😎

[@broomballer1]

I know people that use the floats on snow....Can always give it a try

What is the GPS used for? Newby here. Love your channel!

[@GregJ228]

Hey I doubt you will get a response on a two year old vid but I can tell u the gps keeps the plane from flying to far away it will turn around and fly back

[@TheRyanRanch]

I am so bummed On my maiden flight, been flying for years and wish I could of turned off the GPS, my plane just went bat Chit crazy !!! I literally could not control the plane in flight, everything tested great on radio check for distance signal, and actually the takeoff was perfect, it did a climb and that’s when I lost control, I am thinking of buying another one, and ripping out the GPS. The crash was so severe that the nose broke off and the speed controller was smoking when I finally got to the lil cub. I don’t know if a metal barn had an effect on the signal, all I know is I am so sad this happened on the first flight. 😏

[@Clearedsole]

Thank you for letting me know this bc I was thinking of getting one

[@TheRyanRanch]

@@Clearedsole I went ahead and bought the other model without the GPS, it flies so much better, I tried to get Horizon Hobby to cover some of the GPS C-Cub cost, but that didn’t happen…

my plane just arrived taking it for maiden this weekend so excited

[@Toyota96]

Hello. Can you help me find where I can buy flaps for the carbon cub s2 I can’t find them on the web. Thank you Love your channel best RC channel you got me addicted to RC planes. lol. God Bless Wayne.

[@NeedSpeedRC]

It’s a great trainer. I had the same lift experience during full throttle. A friend helped by manually trimming the elevator down a bit to reduce lift. It made a huge difference.

[@SiR2Dean]

If you notice in the book it mentions low throttle allows the plane to drop, mid throttle will keep her level but full throttle while in a SAFE mode will actually add elevator to assist in climbing, it’s the same with all SAFE equipped planes so far as I’m aware

[@NeedSpeedRC]

@@SiR2Dean Good call out.

[@phapnui]

Nuts. All the big fields near me have been posted with No Trespassing signs. If I knew where I could fly it without paying monthly fees I'd buy one today...well, in the future after the backlog jam has been broken up. My first ride in a real plane was a Cub out of Wings Field in Blue Bell, PA...about 7 years after they were last produced.

[@BigAlFPV17]

Another great awesome plane!! Excellent flying Abby & excellent camera work Nate. There are 4 people I am very thankful for getting me into this hobby: God, my father, & both of you 😊

[@islandrc-duke1972]

Cool plane and great flying

[@Tommydoestuff]

just did my maiden a couple mins again and i crashed :( it didn’t break just a scratch on the bottom of the wing but i was so scared!!

[@TheRcSaylors]

Sounds like you are learning, and that is a good thing! You got this 👍😁😎⚓

[@Tommydoestuff]

i flew it again!! heres what happened ⬇️ i never made a good landing (i made one good landing but i came in hot and it almost crashed into a wall lol) and i keep forgetting to use the panic button when i need it so i’m crashing more then i should. also if i’m close to the ground and turn sometimes it will go down and when i try to level it out it nose dives onto the ground. and that’s most of what happened!! hope you reply! also, what are some tips on not crashing when i land?

[@Bryaniskey]

We haven't seen popeye in awhile 🤔, is he ok?

[@Joemamajoe6969]

First Edit: love you guys

[@bonesshed.]

As a new flyer I just started flying the cub and its great. BUT. ... Im flying on intermediate at the moment and with the dual rate switch in the 0 (more) position . Im not getting any down authority when I throw the elevator ? Off the sticks the aircraft flies straight & tracks well. When up elevator is added it climbs very well but getting down is a matter of throttle cutting and turning to lose height. I presume I should be tipping the nose down when I apply down elevator !!

[@chrisreese2965]

I'm one of those old school rc pilots, lol. Started flying back in 1995 when I was 10 years old. Me and my dad only flew with the old school transmitters, non computerized. I just feel there is no replacement for actually flying the plane. If flying with the technology tickles your fancy then fine, but I would always recommend actually flying the plane instead of sensors flying the plane.
