Hi there! I recently purchased this rtf jet as a first plane - I am currently learning to fly it on the realflight trainer (which was not included with my jet, nor was an instruction manual? Thankfully the instructions were online. Purchased the dongle and software in addition ..) That said, I am practicing with the 3s battery in the sim as that's what I have for my plane - what my question is... In the sim I am able to get some pretty cool high alpha maneuvers with everything set to realistic. Is high alpha flight possible on this jet with the 3s battery? Also in the sim I often kill the engine and glide and it never stalls. Is this the safe system or can I expect a different reaction in the actual sky?
I’m sold... I am totally blown away by the new “Landing Assist”. The landings are the main reason why I didn’t want to buy an EDF jet yet, but now I have no excuses. Thanks Eflight and Horizon.
I accidentally bought one of these without a receiver. Can you do a video on how to configure a receiver to have the safe mode and all that stuff for this particular plane
Awesome video, I just bought my Habu Jet and I will definitely come back to this video for quick reference and practice. I look forward to becoming an experienced pilot over time. Great video 👍
This is really one perfect video Jason. And the bird looks amazing and so much fun. We were just filming Viper and talking to be the first jet, but this one looks even better like the first jet. Perfect. Big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
Yes I'm very excited I have one on back order from horizon hobbies I got it for my self for a Christmas gift I got the ready to fly version I will be receiving it in Jan I've had it on order since the end of Oct I'm so excited about receiving it
Just ordered mine as my first RC plane. I was waiting for something like this. A bit more money than I thought I would spend (with extra 3S and 4S batteries, charger, and LAS) but it doesn't look like a beginner plane that will be put back in box after buying another plane later. I have been considering a Timber as a second plane. I hope I am right in assuming I will be able to use the batteries and receiver with a Timber. Also, it didn't give an estimated delivery date. Any idea when they will be shipping?
Hello Kurt! Thank you for your order and support, and welcome to the hobby!! Habu STS models will begin shipping in the US around 8/14/2020 (the LAS is currently out of stock/backordered, but hopefully those will also arrive around the same). As soon as you receive yours, make sure you download and activate the RealFlight Trainer Edition RC Flight Simulator using the instructions and Steam code in the box! Then you can practice flying the Habu STS (there are 4 variants in the sim...3S powered, 4S powered, plus 3S and 4S powered with the LAS!) on a PC desktop or laptop, AND there's also an entire series of Virtual Flight Instructor (VFI) lessons for the Habu specifically in the sim for you to watch/follow and learn from. The DXS transmitter included with the Habu STS RTF will work for all of the BNF Basic version E-flite Timber models (the UMX and the 1.2m to 1.5m models!). However, you can only use it with one model at a time. That means you will have to re-bind and adjust the trims if you try to use it for the Habu and Timber back and forth. A transmitter with multiple model memory, like the Spektrum DX6e, DX8e, DX6, DX8, etc. will make using one transmitter for multiple models more practical. The 3S 4000mAh 30C batteries will definitely work in the Turbo Timber 1.5m and Timber X 1.2m models, but the 4S 4000mah 30C batteries may not fit due to their added thickness (but you may be able to carefully remove some foam material in the battery bay to make them fit!). Also, although it's equipped with SAFE and you have the RealFlight Trainer Edition simulator to help, there is no substitute for having the support, guidance and help of an instructor. Yes, you can potentially learn to fly the Habu STS on your own using SAFE, but you are more likely to succeed, to learn to fly faster, and to become a better pilot more quickly, if you have an instructor to help you! So please be sure to look for RC flying clubs and instructors in your area if you haven't already. You can also check out our Horizon Hobby Flight School page/program: www.horizonhobby.com/flight-school.html#:~:text=Becoming%20a%20Horizon%20Hobby%20Flight,help%20and%20confidence%2Dbuilding%20support!
I really dislike grass, ate my first jet, too fast, always tumbling. Second jet, on concrete, semi flawless takeoff and landing! Now I take off and land, more than just flying around...the dreaded bounce landing still creeps in, but tarmac is more forgiving. Haven't gone "yard sale" in years.
I got this rtf. Being first jet, I crashed and still continue to crash it almost every time out. It is a trainer and that's what I use it as. I have zapped it so many times. Frankenplane. Crash it, zap it... wash, rinse and repeat. Only thing is flight time. Would recommend getting a few batteries with it. All in all it is fun to fly.
Looks like a really nice offering. I'm betting it'll be a big hit. Now here's my pitch... wish you'd put STS into something like the UMX Turbo Timber and sell it RTF. This would be for folks that don't have club flying fields; folks that fly in their open yards or nearby parks, playing fields and other open areas. [You guys really need to offer the UMX Turbo Timber in RTF.]
Great informative video. Thank you for the wealth of information you have given me. Lets say I use a Dx8 controller would I still have the ability to switch thru the different skill levels?
Yes! If you use the DX8 with the RTF version Habu STS you will just need to assign one of the 3-position switches (we typically recommend/use the "B" switch) to the "gear" channel (channel 5). Then you will have the Beginner, Intermediate and Experienced modes on that switch! Or, if you don't assign the gear channel to a 3-position switch, by default it will be on the 2-position "A" switch which will give you the Beginner and Experienced (no Intermediate) modes.
Both are perfect first airplanes for anyone who has never flown! That said, if you're learning to fly on your own and without any help, the AeroScout would be the better choice. If you have access to an experienced instructor to help you though, the Habu is a great choice too! And either way, be sure to purchase and use RealFlight Trainer Edition or RealFlight 9.5 RC Flight Simulator (both the Habu STS and AeroScout 1.1m are on both versions of that sim!).
As a newbie im confused What happens when you have to land and the jet don't go down because of the 30 feet safety system.... Is there's a way to overcome or avoid this system for landing how its differ from landing and crashing it.... sorry for the dumb question guys....
good video spectrum is brilliant what flying field what a cracking little jet stick a mini gas turbine in it next ha brilliant sir looks like a lovely 1950s jet what wheels did you fit please
I didn’t see anything on how to do a range test. To me, it’s one of the most important parts to safely fly any airplane. Is that accomplished using the bind button or what? This is a great video but I wish that should be shown. Aren’t we ASSuming this is for inexperienced pilots?! I’ve ordered mine!
This video was not intended to cover every detail related to preflight assembly, preparation and checks. Those details are covered fully in the instruction manual, including when it comes to the range test (as outlined on page 12): www.horizonhobby.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/dw7a22978f/Manuals/EFL015001_MANUAL_EN.pdf
@@nelsonator1988 I found out pushrod for nosewheel is fragile. To be honest the field was a lil bit rough.. It (nosewheel pushrod) broke when I tried to take off. I repaired it but haven't taken it back out yet. Ironically I got my real plane back from the shop so I've been flying that. Looking forward to getting the model in the air as soon as I can find a smoother surface.
The panic button is located near the back left corner on the top of the transmitter ( as seen in this image: www.horizonhobby.com/dw/image/v2/BFBR_PRD/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-horizon-master/default/dw4a1389ba/Images/SPM/SPMR1010_A12_RHUCADRA.jpg?sw=800&sh=800&sm=fit ) and does the following: "If you lose control of the airplane in the Intermediate or Experienced flight modes, simply press the Panic Recovery button or switch to Beginner Mode and release the control sticks.

We officially recommend 4S 3200-4000mAh batteries, but some lower and higher capacity batteries will also fit/work. And you can see some "fun" hand launches starting around the 1 minute 50 second mark in this video: ruclips.net/video/xniyciM4ZUE/видео.html
I’m trying to bind the DXS transmitter to the UMX turbo timber and the flaps are stuck in the down position unless I press the panic button how do I fix this?
Had the some problem lol. For anyone else who hits this, you have to switch the transmitter to "profile 2". Its default profile is made to work with the Habu and doesn't support flaps. Google for the process to switch profiles.
Does anyone from Australia know where I can buy this aircraft within Australia I can't seem to find it, I would buy it from the US but the postage will probably cost more than the jet itself.

Those cost more than an AR636 or AR637T receiver, and would have made the price for a BNF Basic version about $60 more than the PNP version. That said, we do plan on providing an AR636 model file that includes AS3X and SAFE Select tuned for the Habu STS so anyone who has a spare 636 and would like to install it in the PNP version can (that will hopefully be ready in about 2 weeks when these begin shipping). We may also offer a Habu STS setup for the AR637T, but the 636 is our priority for now since so many people already have those receivers on hand.

Bad decision not to offer a BNF
As noted in response to other comments/questions regarding a BNF Basic version:
No BNF Basic option for this one due to the added cost associated with the flight controller (which includes a barometer that offers the "invisible floor" functionality, makes upgrading to the LAS and other functions possible) and serial receiver included in the RTF version. Those cost more than an AR636 or AR637T receiver, and would have made the price for a BNF Basic version about $60 more than the PNP version.
That said, we do plan on providing an AR636 model file that includes AS3X and SAFE Select tuned for the Habu STS so anyone who has a spare 636 and would like to install it in the PNP version can (that will hopefully be ready in about 2 weeks when these begin shipping). We may also offer a Habu STS setup for the AR637T, but the 636 is our priority for now since so many people already have those receivers on hand.
