If you are starting out, never under estimate the importance of good weather. You can have the most stable plane in the world but it will still be a handfull if your trying to fly outside of your skill level or even worse, the flight envelope of the aircraft itself due to poor weather. Its not just the wind but low light levels, strong directional light sources or even low cloud and mist can cause sudden and possibly catastrophic problems with orientation. Remember that conditions at 100 feet can be completely different to what it feels like on the ground. Watch the weather forecast, look for the calmest period of the day (often early morning or late evening) and be prepared to take advantage of decent breaks in the weather. Getting everything in your favour especially the weather will help your early flying considerably. When i first started off i had a rule that even if the forecast was good i would still not fly if i could see any sign of anything more than the very lightest breeze. This was pre gyro stabilisation days and i was going it alone and teaching myself. Every crash i have ever had since has always been because i was flying in conditions outside of my skill level. Learn the basics in perfect weather first.

[@horizonhobby]

Great tips! We may have to pin this comment to the top ;).

[@rcexplorers24]

Lol I wish I saw this before I took my mig out

[@uravggamer4620]

Ahh the Mini Apprentice S. I have wrecked that thing more than any other plane than I have, and it still flys better than most of them as well. I have put it into a power line, went nose first into the ground, stalled out while out of safe mode during a take off and flipped it on it’s back. Come to think of it, half of my wing is packing tape. If you want a beginner plane that can take a beating and is easily repairable, get the Mini Apprentice S.

[@geminiman2831]

Which is better apprentice s2 or carbon cub?

[@richarddarlington1139]

There is so much to learn about this great hobby of ours. My best advice for beginners is to find a dedicated modeler (like me) to help you. The SAFE technology is great. But, it can end up being a crutch for new pilots. And, once you turn it off, you can find yourself in a spot of trouble. I've seen it happen, with rather unpleasant (and expensive) results. An instructor with a compatible buddy box is your best chance of success. I kid you not. P.S. Bigger really does fly better!

[@AverageApe44]

Richard Darlington Is there any beginner warbirds? Im limited on budget, and that is the kind of plane I want. If I can get around it I’d rather not buy two planes. Any info is great!

[@flystol]

Unknown Alias warbirds r just a different breed me personally I would get a plane like in this video !

[@geminiman2831]

I am a beginner which is better apprentice s or carbon cub?

[@FalconWing1813]

I have the UMX Sport Cub and I fly it in front of my house and a local church parking lot. Great Flyer and does great late evening with no winds, peace of cake to charge. I have had my eyes on the Larger Carbon Cub for a while. I Wish it was on the Foam Frenzy Sale! lol

[@BeSafe20]

Can you show vid about Dx6 receiver ,how to connect in air croft please. Thanks

[@Georgewrigley]

Love the cub s. I will get this soon. In the meantime I bought the Champ S plus, weather improving here in the UK. Maidening her very soon , can't wait. Thanks for the video. Cheers :)

[@danielvan7327]

Hi thanks for the video, i bought the carbon cub s a couple of weeks ago as a beginner plane. I have never flown rc planes before and this plane is great in begginer mode it made it so easy to fly and not crash. I have flown it a couple of dozen times and now flying in advance mode with out any crashes.

[@mmmasterscross7915]

Great video for beginners. To get more people into the hobby. Thanks HH for helping us get into the hobby!

[@lucyholgate7195]

love it just purchased my carbon cub s2

[@dannyhelton6363]

Surprised you didn’t mention the family of Timbers. I think for just s few dollars more I’d say the UMX Timber over the Little cub, I have both and think the Timber would be a better buy, and build the confidence better. You don’t have to worry about the wind as much. Thanks

[@jackdaniels7913]

I recommend the umx timber hands down you'll never outgrow it with a 6ch remote and some hobbyking 450mah batterys pushing +15min flights, it has safe and flaps, full lights and good power to grow with and once you learn to fly a micro in wind with out safe you can fly anything anywhere in any conditions!

[@oldasa]

I had a problem in that the tail wheel was attached to a rather weak area of the rudder bottom. Had I noticed it three flights earlier it would have saved a crackup. Unfortunately by that 3 rd fight I no longer had rudder when trying to correct at a low level wind gust. ONe might say that without a little reinforcement on that rudder control horn we might call it the Achilles heal of an otherwise great plane. To this day as a new Pilot I'm still trying to get my nerve up to fly in 10 plus MPH wind. LOL

[@jackdaniels7913]

All it takes is the effort you have faith in your self and the rest will fallow trust me worst comes to worst your crash and rebuild but that's just part of the hobby no matter how long you've spent in it lol 🥃cheers🍻

[@infinitesky-59]

Plus 1 for the UMX Timber, its the easiest plane i have ever flown and being so light will rarely damage anything or even itself if things go wrong. I also used one of these to learn FPV flying.

[@matk4731]

I have the Mini Apprentice😁 Love it had it for over a year fly’s fantastic. Really helped me to learn & grow my confidence. I still fly it all the time as well as all of my other HH planes it’s an awesome plane. Best trainer IMHO 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

[@cadillacescalade5428]

Just Wanted to say Thanks horizon hobbies for making such great planes I bought the carbon Cub s+ and also got the floats for it. Really Nice. I started learning on a 3 channel Cessna 189 a sweet little plane very fun to fly. I'm also interested in getting the mini Apprentice as well. I'm so excited about the carbon Cub the features are so amazing. It's a very stylish plane.

[@richardrosenau9292]

UMX, has 1 thing over traditional size trainers. Mass to weight ratio. Whatever it hits you have lowest chance of damage to what it hits and or far less damage to your plane. Absolutely love the UMX, Radian, then Cub then Timber.

[@prycenewberg3976]

Coming from flying helis, what you mentioned about the first plane and its small size as a detriment is the grand paradox of learning how to fly (helis). All of the reasonable (once you get above Blade's 120S or 150...) sized helis that aren't at the mercy of the smallest breezes are fairly heavy, expensive, and dangerous. In a crash, these helis are susceptible to bent main-shafts, broken tail booms, stripped gears, etc. For those reasons, many *_recommend_* using the smaller helis that have practically no mass to resist wind and are so small that you can easily lose sight (or orientation) of them at larger fields. I almost wish I had started on a larger heli that could have resisted the wind a little better. I think that the biggest piece of advice I can give would be to find a mentor or a teacher. After that, go slow. Take it one step at a time. Always remember that you can program the transmitter to be more forgiving (ie less responsive). Use a sim *use a sim* *_use a sim_* *_USE A SIM!!!_*

[@josipvrandecic2472]

A useful guide for young new forces.Thanks HH.

[@1212354a]

Champ Champ Champ! 3 channel fly anywhere

[@garymoore3159]

Can you get any kind of camera for an of these? Also, are there floats available?

[@jeremiahbacon3651]

What this guy doesn't tell you... the yellow carbon cub doesn't come with auto land nor GPS.

[@goldtutch]

meeen! even i can fly them these days i love it. what is the gps on this made up of ,is it a cell reciever or radio or

[@jayjaytv2563]

Hey Good presentation, but i have two questions. 1. Which Wingspan is bigger or longer between the Carbon Cub S+ and the apprentice? 2. Which brushless Motor is more powerful the Apprentice or the Carbon Cub S+ ?

[@horizonhobby]

The Carbon Cub has a 1.3m wingspan. The Mini Apprentice is 1.2m. They both have a very similar power output, but the Carbon Cub should take top-honor in that category.

[@aratasepp]

If I were to buy the cub s plus and the spectrum ix12. Would I be able to use all the features of the s on the ix12? And would it be easier to by the bnf or rtf? With the ix12 could I buddy box with the radio that comes with the rtf kit

[@leif171]

This is a great video for getting into the hobby !! Where can I purchase that horizon shirt !?!? Would love to see more merchandise for sale 👍🏼

[@horizonhobby]

That particular shirt was our one-off shirt for Joe Nall 2018. But, there may be something coming in the future ;).

[@kevinouellette1893]

I bought the carbon cub s+ RTF version which came with a transmitter and I love it! If I was going to buy another brand new carbon cub s+ but BNF version , will the transmitter I got from the RTF version work for it? So I don’t have to buy another transmitter?

[@naterbater118]

What's your cheapest entry level plane even if not for beginner

[@djsash2543]

The Aprentisse you get With SAFE dude!

[@robbie63041]

I have 2 of those

[@M7RAA]

Ur so lucky, I dont have a single one

[@M7RAA]

Hi, I'm 14 and wanna get into this hobby. I wanna be an airline pilot when I grow up so this will be great motivation for me. I wanna go with the carbon cub but its way too expensive. I would have to save up lucnh money for months and months. I've looked and tried out discount codes but none of them work so I'm stuck with the stock price. Do you think I should save up or just get a cheaper plane?

[@horizonhobby]

Hi Rohaan, that's awesome you want to be a pilot. The plane we would recommend looking into would be the AeroScout S 1.1m RTF.

[@shaunohare3004]

@@horizonhobby it's literally impossible to get one now!

[@goppstopper]

I might never get one of these because of the price or that i might not use it but if i do i would get the cub because i have a little experience with drones and helicopters and i've played some flying games. But the main reason i would is because if you end up persueing the hobby and want to do more stuff you don't have to go and spend 200 to 500 bucks again you can just use the cub because it is just a good plane in general

[@sckat5602]

My dad bought me a rtr champ for my 12 birthday, but few days after I crashed it and broke the wing. It was a little windy and I felt really bad. Then I found out tape is good and he was getting another wing. Was the champ a good choice for me? It was the champ rtr and it still flys with the tape on. It did teach me to fly tho, it's just a little windy.

[@cadillacescalade5428]

I own both the carbon Cub s+ and the Mini Apprentice s. I'm about to get the Big Apprentice 15

[@greg0063]

I learned on a Popwing, then a Simple Delta, and then a Techone Trainer King. Yes in that order.

[@ryano.8768]

Im learning off of a more experienced pilot's buddy boxed Maule at the flying field. Its just less forgiving with stalls.

[@blue03r6]

The GPS can be added to the aprentice sts 1.5m. I assume the mini apprentice has the same receiver to use the GPS too?

[@arnav7093]

blue03r6 no the mini cant have the gps module or the LAS

[@strykerf27q1983]

Awesome video. Im a seasoned pilot all my planes and helis are horizon and blade but the other day I almost crashed my brand new umx stryker evolution cuz i accidently went into safe mode not ever reading about it instead of high rates and omg I almost crashed 3 times and I flew it clear out of sight then it somehow managed to come back it made the sticks have about 95% expo completly uncontrolable Im not a fan It was anything but safe lol.Im so glad I was able to program the big f27 evo without it. the safe mode switch should be called the crash switch or fly away switch cuz thats whats going to happen if you dont know about it.

[@timcoppin6386]

Great Video, i have an apprentice S 15e that came RTF with the DXE. I now have a DX6E and wondered if you could do a tutorial video on how to bind and set up with the DX6E. i am having trouble with the switches not working in the right way, and i don't know if the SAFE and panic buttons are working. How would i be able to tell?

[@ryanjones2310]

I bought the carbon cub and love it. However recently when I plug the battery in it won’t turn on. I’ve tried to go over everything and it’s all hooked up. I’ve tried to call horizon to help figure out why and haven’t received any help.

[@nabbsone]

Those sport cub s are AMAZING planes .. im not even a beginner and I just love that thing. I have had 3 of them. I went to the park one day and it was just blown out with wind. One of the local vets was like "you wont be able to fly that little thing today" Then they were all blown away when this little guy just flew like a bird and didnt care about the wind heh

[@iiaf_museum]

Hi, the rudder of my cub s2 doesn't stay at neutral position. It's twisted to the right. I don't know how to put it in the middle. Trim can't fix it.

[@Rhoedision]

Ty so much and great review..

[@isaacgalek9627]

Hi right now I'm between the mini apprentice s and the aeroscout s can you tell me which one do you think is better in the matter of flying time, power and that I can fly in small parks also in general what do you thinks about this two planes

[@emmanuelbutmankiewicz5342]

What's the average flight time on the carbon cub? I'm torn between the carbon cub and the new apprentice STS ($100 more).

[@bendrixbailey1430]

Regarding the Carbon Cub....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.

[@djsash2543]

Withch is best for acro?

[@jul1anuhd]

I started with the Mini Apprentice S. The next Aircraft I buy is the EC1500 I think. It looks so nice :D But all 3 here are good for beginners. Its just a preference I think.

[@christopherfletcher9084]

I have the EC-1500 and I think that it is not the best beginner plane, but with some experience, it flies great! You will encounter lots of tip stalls though if you fly it slow, so keep your throttle at 15ish percent on landing.

[@boriquen65]

It is very Good information for the beginner like me to start with .... thanks

[@horizonhobby]

You are welcome! Let us know if you have any questions!

[@56thSPSk970]

My carbon cub rocks!!!

[@petergeralis3725]

Will the cub use rudder to land on beginner mode? Or the only safe landing is with auto pilot?

[@horizonhobby]

The rudder is always active, the beginner and intermediate mode simply limit the "throw" it has. The Safe landing feature will work in any flight mode as long as you set up the "home" location properly.

[@RGunth]

GPS and Landing Assist are NOT included in the kits. I found out the hard way.

[@brianchambers1515]

nailed it.........👍👍

[@granttoye5852]

Flyzone DHC-2? Or FMS kingfisher. Those are what I'm looking at for my first planes. I know they both have flaps, and either of them probably don't have SAFE. Maybe the kingfisher does. But in the initial stages, I'm likely not even going to touch the flaps. Correcting the plane for level doesn't seem like a problem, unless I won't be able to tell the orientation. I have had RCs before, but never a plane.

[@horizonhobby]

The Kingfisher would probably be the better choice of the two. Neither will have SAFE, however.

[@nilabhrabanerjee]

I would like to know how long they can fly, how high they can fly and how far they can fly.

[@satyanpatel6403]

Hobbyzone Champ, UMX Timber as well. Wow. Hobbyzone champ you'll outgrow quick, but it teaches you quick. UMX Timber, impossible to outgrow. STOL baby.

[@deandallmann4464]

Can you get GPS technology in the UMX TURBO TIMBER?

[@sethgreenberg7725]

Nice review but you don't tell the viewers that the GPS or the landing assist is not included

[@garymoore3159]

In Canada, it is sold without charger, batteries, etc. All-in is $600

[@seany11244]

HH please please please !! make a BNF 1.0 -1.1m. Turbo Timber or Maule 7 for intermediate to advanced flyers. There is a huge gap in the HH lineup for BNF park flyers that's easy to transport and fun to fly. Already have the UMX TT and it's awesome.. The 1.5 TT is just too big to transport in most midsize family vehicles without undoing the wings.

[@joeblack4883]

For the Carbon cub; In the Safe mode Holding Pattern, what is the diameter of the pattern circle?

[@robertgeiter7958]

Do any warbirds have the safety features

[@gmboi2815]

no stay away from warbirds

[@rburns2548]

Any other planes with the GPS technology?

[@jean-christophelelann6308]

Does Horizon still build Apprentice 15s ? This plane was great also, but seems hard to find now... Why ?

[@BillKisel]

About how much area/acreage do you need to fly these planes? Thanks...

[@infinitesky-59]

I fly the UMX planes in just an acre. I also use larger STOL planes up to 1200mm span but thats the limit. I would say personally i would be happier with 3 or 4 acres.

[@festalongreyhawkshorts4sho645]

Unfortunately, any aircraft over 250 grams, is banned now without a special permit, in NY State, I can only fly the small ones now 😕

[@janrc]

I do not have confidence in the auto pilot technology. I had some trouble with the SAFE technology in my Apprentice which leads to a complete loss of control over the plane. I have confidence in the AS3X technology but not so much in the higher levels. I think the best plane is a plane which is stable for itself and have a little bit help for beginners (self stabilisation with AS3X) and thats it.

[@jet9927]

Does the club s from this video have as3x?

[@subiecrosstrek6942]

Can I pair other Rx (Orange DXM or Spektrum) with the DXe supplied with RTF apprentice ? ? Is That Tx classified as Full Range ?

[@adamthomas1348]

i need a plane that can hold my s8 phone, what plane do you think would be stable enough with the weight?

[@nathaliefournier4385]

I’ve been wanting one for some time now. I was wondering,for a beginner like me,is battery operated planes better than gas powered ones? And also how long do the batteries last.I absolutely love planes and thought they were more pricey than that. :)

[@horizonhobby]

Definitely start with electric power. One less thing to worry about while you are learning to fly. Average flight time is roughly five minutes, but you can certainly manage your power to get much longer flights.

[@geminiman2831]

​@@horizonhobby Which is better apprentice s2 or carbon cub?

[@edwyn1326]

Hi, I have a question. Hope you can help me. Does the AR636B have the ability to use SAFE technology? I’ve been trying to get information online and it’s quite confusing among all different versions (a,b,h, etc). I read somewhere that different firmware can be flashed to according to each versions and therefore activate SAFE. Bottom line is I have a AR636B and would like to know if by any chance I can use panic button, SAFE technology. Sorry for the long text and thanks for your help.

[@FeWolf]

I would agree with first plane, but the other are too pricey, as a beginner will smash them, believe I know from personal experience.

[@williamcogle2599]

this is what happend to me. I bought a cube S+ took it out . the instructer started it up and took off it got about ten feet off the ground took off to about thurty feet up then came down to about ten foot then back up to way heighter than it was first up and down then crashed. The man at Hobby Town USA said the GPS was not working. It was bad. SO i bought a Carbon cub S+ put it toghter did all my setups it would not set up GPS all things work with GPS that GPS is broke to. What would that tell you? two planes in a row the GPS is bad. My luck. now i got two planes in shop. none to fly.

[@toolbaggers]

How about a Mini Apprentice S with SAFE+?

[@IanFlyinGremlinRCNZ]

I have the Carbon Cub S+. I have flown it 4 times today, as the weather was just great..I am going to throw a larger Mah battery so I can have a bit more flight time as about 6mins is not quite enough..But apart from that I am glad I got it, as I havent flown a 4 channel plane before, I can learn on this with the SAFE TECH on board and as I progress flying I can do rolls and other things..But for a beginner I highly recommened this plane..And she looks good in the air to..

[@SolarReturn1966]

Great products but to fully enjoy flying your first plane, one should first build a balsa kit! Just my humble opinion.......

[@mazpr2025]

NEGATIVE, hell no...that would cause the whole opposite. He is on the money on which three planes to recommend, do need some simulator time and if possible a instructor w a buddy box.

[@luciousdavis3341]

I say spend your life savings on your first plane

[@TheScottsatisfaction]

Carbon Cub s pretty weak. Every time you hit that virtual fence and it takes over to turn around it takes a huge spiraling plummeting dive. You better be a good couple hundred feet off the ground cuz it takes it 50 ft to drop and turn around. If you have any large trees are obstacles watch out. Not only that but sometimes it just keeps on dropping and plummeting and never recovers. I don't know if it's safe to control surfaces are too small or if it sat there manufactured on a budget or what so I know it's the thing takes over and either takes a huge drop to turn around or crashes. So now it's on me 2 pay the postage and ship the thing back to you guys and then pay for the return Postage and who knows what else. I bought at least two dozen Horizon planes and helicopters. I'm sure you guys know where the weak points are. I can pull a new carbon Cub out of the box and tell you exactly where the things going to break if you land a little bit too hard. As a matter of fact first hardloop I did the tail busted and it obviously crashed after that. I think a beginner friendly playing should definitely at least have enough strength so that the thing doesn't break apart in mid-flight

[@gmboi2815]

This is a good video, but you don't have to go electric. I started with a gas a bought from a local shop of mine called samonoes, and i loved that plane Honestly you should start with a plane like this, but as soon as you can go to gas. They are just so much better to fly, like if you run out of power, that's it i go home. with a gas plane just fill it back up. with fuel. Guy's pls get gas if you have the space. And if you are unsure, just buddy box.

[@bruceyung70]

Thank you for this video! I wish I would have watched this video prior to wrecking my first RC plane into an oblivion.

[@0101-o3w]

Halfway through you said if you were asked which is the best one to start with you said you would have to say the apprentice then at the end you said that you'd recommend to start with the carbon cub s because of the safe tech??? In a video a just watched for horizon you say that it's the apprentice again because you've now put the tech from the carbon into it??? Let's just be totally honest the one you keep recommending is the one you charge the most for and it has nothing to do with the best one for someone getting into the hobby, basically you are just trying to take advantage of beginners to put as much profit in your pocket as possible and inevitably discourage the begginer

[@-cutekey2454]

Want a good drone buy *HERMES 900*

[@wazza7575]

Nice planes but there are many other trainers at much less money out there. You will crash and destroy your for plane so start with something from Hobby King or Volantex for example. Horizon Hobbies planes are way overpriced.

[@christopherfletcher9084]

but they are probably the highest quality brand on the market

[@gregkienle3378]

Please don't take this the wrong way...Horizon airplanes and Spectrum radios both are great stuff, but my god you have to take out a 2nd mortgage out on your house to afford it.
