[@williamevans1979]

I lost my Aeroscout 1.1, but I got a carbon cub s 2 1.3 ,and I discovered a surprise. The D Switch will work for flaps ,cuz I got the RTF version the book says that you have to have a better radio but you don't, servo port #8 is a flaps control with servo in place.😆

[@michaelgantt9768]

thercsaylors would you recommend this for someone who has never flown? would the safe mode give me a fighting chance or should i still go the route of joining a club and having someone teach me to fly?

[@carlfulton7582]

The GPS Module, also called SAFE Plus, will allow the aircraft to fly a holding pattern on its own, return home and land by itself. Initiated by holding the bind button down. See page 24 of the manual for details. Yes, I liked your video on this plane. C. Fulton

[@Jbels]

I bought an Aero Scout (because of this channel) and flew an RC plane for the first time in 25 years. I love AC3X and safe, if I had these back in the old days I would have never gotten out of the hobby! So yes, I think the new technology is wonderful and will make it much easier for newbies to start out and build confidence in those of us that need a little assist as we dust our wings off.

[@goodenough_0815]

The airplanes recovery mode is for when the plane is upside down or like falling it will level the plane off

[@stevecoltrin7230]

It looks like the wheel pants are on upside down, unless you like bell bottoms.

[@samnelson3526]

Ha! I noticed that too

[@k-ninebike2180]

Good to see this. Ordered for my Habu a couple weeks ago. The LAS is on back order, but due sometime in November. You guys gave me a little insight on how it works. Thanks.

[@TheRcSaylors]

I believe it will work just as well on the Habu as it did on this plane 😀👍⚓😎

[@gregmcclure2640]

The little "do-hickeys" on the wings are called vortex generators. They cause the air over the top of the wing to swirl and draw back onto the wing surface. They give more aileron authority at slow speeds and reduce the stall speed. Keep up the good work! You are ambassadors for the hobby, and have integrity!

[@timothyhoover9343]

You had the wheel pants on upside down.....might have been an issue with breaking...

[@TheRcSaylors]

We did this is sort of an Easter Egg to see who would notice 😉 Just trying to bring back the 60s and 70s Bell Bottoms! 😂🤣🕺

[@AlymerKiteboy]

Those aren't actually called wheel pants... wheel pants cover the wheels, not the landing gear struts.

[@davidpoole7098]

I'd say it's good for the hobby. It's a lower threshold for beginners. I can say from personal experience, wrecking your first plane on the maiden flight is extremely discouraging. So anything that helps keep the plane from wrecking long enough to actually get experience with it is a good thing.

[@joshdaniels1280]

I’ve had all sorts of off road trucks and on road cars (drifting, trophy trucks, crawlers, and monster trucks) my whole life. This safe tech is makin me want to get into planes too now

[@AlymerKiteboy]

You've still got the landing gear fairings on upside-down... the wide end goes next to the fuselage! 🙄

[@toddfleury7324]

Thank you, wondered if anyone else noticed that too.

[@ralphcoolbaugh371]

At 61 years old I got this as my first airplane. From the first flight take off and landing went smoothly with no LAS. My only “oops” was that tall tree that was way closer than it appeared. I even enjoyed the repair experience.

[@TheRcSaylors]

That is really awesome Ralph! Sounds like you are experiencing the hobby the way it was meant to be enjoyed! Sorry to hear about that tree, but welcome to the "club" 😁 We've all had those pesky trees jump to life and grab our planes out of nowhere! Happy Flying 👍😎⚓

[@imjusttoodissgusted5620]

those fins on the top of the wing are called vortex generators in the air force

[@larrybrown9583]

Is it just me or are your wheel pants upside down if so have done that to prevent damage to the fuselage?

[@Daniel_SWE]

It is a good beginner plane. I'm glad they have removed the GPS that the S+ version had. A wrong command to the GPS made me crash into a tree where the plane lived for three days. :D Now test the assist on water. :)

[@lorendjones]

I first tried my hand at model aircraft flying back when you had planes on two wires 50 years ago! It was disaster on the first flight! I now have this Carbon Cub and I bought ALL the options (LAS, GPS,etc.) I would have NOT been enticed to purchase it if had didn't have these options. I'm hoping my second attempt at model aircraft works better than my first! (I have managed to accumulate 10,000+ hours at the controls of real airplanes between my two model aircraft attempts!)

[@marclugo61]

Xk6 tr. Is a$1200.00 radio. Deal with it. No kidding. Ask China. And.... Futaba

[@NOMASAIM]

Panic mode is the bind button. Only works in expert mode. Rights the plane and gives you time to switch back to beginner.

[@jimhunt9745]

I have the S+ and love it. I fly with the GPS turned off as it takes forever to figure out where it is so I can fly. I also like the beginner mode as if you let go of the sticks, the plane goes level and flys on (no crash). So, if I am in mode 2 or 3 and have a problem, I just click it to mode 1 and the plane saves itself. I never could get the auto landing function to work - may be a GPS or compass problem. Still afraid to try loops or rolls but will someday. Nice first plane though. I get 6 minutes of flight time on a battery.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Hey that’s awesome Jim! Glad you like your S+! Yeah the GPS does take more time to set up than without, so we understand wanting to just get up in the air to fly quicker! That’s why we like electric over gas and glow! Happy Flying Jim! 👍😀⚓️

Vortex generators on top of the wing

[@SunriseRCAviator]

I just maiden mine with flaps installed. It's a nice gentle plane and both takeoffs and landings went well. Landing sensor appears to work great (I don't have one) but it's better to practise landings instead. Anyway thanks for sharing your as always entertaining videos.

[@fishwhisperer101]

You have to install the optional GPS module to get Failsafe, Geofence, Holding Pattern, and Returnto homewith automatic landing.

[@carlfulton7582]

The Cub is great for the disabled, as I am. The panic button use to be the bind button. A Nam vet

[@afanofosc]

"And you can instantly return to steady flight using Panic Recovery with the push of a button in any flight mode." That is in the descrpition on the HobbyZone page for the Carbon Cub S2. "Panic Recovery mode at the push of a button to prevent loss of control and crashes" is on the Horizon Hobby page for this plane. The PDF manual says "Button I operates PANIC mode when pressed" on page 7 but you have to assign AUX1 to button I. Later on it says "At any time release both sticks to activate panic recovery mode for self-leveling."

[@MrFester63]

As a total noob, I got this plane partially because of the "training wheels" / Safe mode (I don't have landing assist though). For me, it reduces the chance of spending a lot of $$ (to me), then breaking it before enjoying it. I only have a few flights, but love it. Landing w/o landing assist has been easy, even for a noob like me.

[@BillKisel]

The LAS Module link needs fixin.

[@brianpfefferkorn6153]

Does anyone know if you can use the Las on other planes or is it only recommend for the 3 planes. Can you install it on let's say a EDF f18, or a6.

[@michaelwilkins5841]

I think it’s great!!! Why do would I want fly my plane that I’ve either spent time building and hundreds of dollars some thousands to just crash it!!! Anything to save my investment so I get a lot more enjoyment out of each airplane!!! What money and time I save on each plane leaves me more money and time to purchase and build another plane!!

[@pauldaley9626]

I bought my S2 Oct 15th 2020 and my Landing Assist Module arrived yesterday. It's a 3- 4 month wait for the LAS. I have waited to fly my plane until I had this part. I'm new to the hobby and bought the Carbon cub S2 as my first plane to ensure a successful maiden flight. Now we all know that things happen but thanks to RC sailors I'm feeling confident getting started in the hobby

[@CCBZRG]

How is the DXS transmitter? Can you bind it with most other BNF aircraft? Is it a true 7-channel radio?

[@jakehart7617]

I see a lot of people asking if this is a good first plane. yes it is. It was my first plane about 5 years ago. It's slow and floaty. With safe, it's very hard to crash. The GPS is kind of a gimmick though in my opinion. I always disabled it. But the plane is a great flyer. I still have mine. Get this or the apprentice.

[@KL-uu2vq]

I went ahead and got this one w gps. I got a aeroscout s2 1.1m and the 1280 mm easy trainer. Love me some pushers. I don’t have the ground sensor but I have a dx6e. Will it work w this 6 channel?

[@robertmontgomery7133]

It took two new planes before I figured the GPS was defective. I have flown a lot and have two other planes which I have never crashed. My first Carbon Cub took off, made a gentle right turn (in SAFE) and nosed straight down. I bought another, moved the GPS from the first to the new plane and the same thing happened. Since I own several other planes (4 channel) and have never came close to crashing either, the only thing I can figure is the gps somehow took over and cause the crash. I have been flying for years and was going to use this to help others learn to fly. Now I am out around $550.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Did you calibrate the GPS like we demonstrate in our first video of this airplane, exactly?

[@robertmontgomery7133]

@@TheRcSaylors I rebuilt the Cub and discovered the left wing aileron was stripped. So either the GPS was bad or the servo was bad. Either way I'm out a brand new airplane. I have glued it up and hope it will fly again as soon as I replace the aileron.

[@robertmontgomery7133]

@@TheRcSaylors We have solved the mystery. I upgraded from the RTF transmitter to the new NX6. You know, download the BNF templet from Horizon and bind you plane and you are ready to go! That worked on all my planes except the Cub. It seems there was a programing error in the templet. While on phone support we found the error and changing one simple setting and the rebuilt plane flies fine. I did remove the GPS as the wrong setting combined with the GPS likely caused the crash.

Plugged into Channel 7 on Flight Controller. And it is facing the right direction. The light on the windscreen seems wrong. It flashes green and red (not purple). Is this an error in setup? Any idea what is the correct install? If flap setup is of interest I’ll share what I did. It is not obvious and HS instructions are pathetic. At least to a novice.

My suggestion is to purchase the Carbon Cub 2 with gps and landing assist first. Then the Habu BNF. You can bind it to the same transmitter and if you want, swap the landing Assist over.

I've been flying RC since about 1970 but your reviews have helped me with evaluating the benefit of the new technology and the amazing new foam airplanes. I bought the Carbon Cub S+ for my 6 year old grandson in Australia and he could handle the controls in beginner mode beside taking off and landing. I think an inexperienced person should use an experienced one to set up the plane. You must have put the landing gear fairing on upside down to tease the audience.

Good question! If you have the GPS module installed, YES it will save the plane and return if the transmitter signal is lost.

Yes, you can use channel 7 on the DXS…. BUT the DXS isn’t programmable and you can’t add elevator compensation when the flaps go down. Without this, the plane will balloon itself a lot. If you still want to add it then just be prepared to use the elevator at the exact time flaps command is given.

[@mxracingunlimitedltd7784]

The elevator down issue is because you need to set it up with the plane level, not sitting on the landing wheels. Otherwise it will have no down elevator except for advanced mode/only as3x mode. That way the flight controller is set at its regular level flight, as opposed to a tail dragger that has the motor pointing to the sky when sitting on a table. You put a pile of books under the rear wheels to level it and then Bind it and do all that stuff again..

The panic recovery is simple flipping the top left toggle (flight modes) to beginner and the plane recovers. This obviously only works when you are in intermediate or advanced mode to start with. I've used that action several times to save myself from crashing while practicing in intermediate mode flight. And the landing gear skirts issue, I used 2 extra small clear zip ties after drilling small wholes in the skirt and securing to the wire gear. (Learned that from another experienced RC U-tuber online).

[@TheRcSaylors]

I dug a little and realized there is an additional "recovery" that will "auto land" the plane if it loses signal. It basically spirals down to the ground till it hits the ground. Better than just flying away! Thats what I was trying to get it to do in this video.

I have been enjoying rc scale model wooden boats for awhile but I have always wanted an airplane. I've never flown an rc plane, so I have been looking at trainers. I think I've found my first plane.

Thank you that video helped a lot. The technology is the reason I am trying to get back into the hobby tried it years ago and just got frustrated but I think the technology will help me out a lot along with your videos. Thanks👍

Hey cool sounds like a winner for me I just need tons of practice 😮will be investing this unit 👍🏻🙈

The wheel pants add rigidity to the landing gear to reduce bending of the landing gear. You can help keep them on by using mini tie wraps but eventually they break. I made a pair from some aluminum off of an old CPU cooling fan, tie wrapped them on and they work great. Just added landing lights to help visibility in the fall weather. Thanks for all you two do!
