Dang I received my Sport Cub BNF yesterday. I had watched your video of the Champ and I had decided to get a smaller plane because My Carbon Cub S+ which flies amazing but is just too big to take off and land from anywhere near my house. I didn't get the champ because I wanted SAFE with the "Oh crap" button and BNF is only $10 more than the Champ so a no brainier. I can use the BXe Transmitter that came with my Carbon cub S+.
@@mrkmh1 Nice, I have had a couple of the: Sport Cub S, and I had some bad luck with it. In Beginner Mode I was Flying, with No Wind even. So as I was Flying away from myself, and for the life of me, I just could Not get the Plane to Turnaround, and I couldn't even Lower my Altitude. Then the Plane had gotten to Far away, that I couldn't tell my Orientation, and when your Flying Towards yourself, the Controls are Backwards. So, just learning the Controls while Flying Towards Myself, was a Challenge in it's own. The Sport Cub S in SAFE MODE needs more Control Authority. I have Flown a lot of Airplanes with SAFE AND SAFE SELECT, and I never had the Problems that I had with the SPORT CUB S.
Hey, Larry, I was so what's going on then? So did you get those Nintendo switch games? Right Super Mario Kart Mario Party Legend of Zelda Super Mario Brothers Splatoon 2 And that's all. .
@John Pelcak For the bind and fly versions the plane shown here runs $99 and the UMX Timber runs $129. Getting the RTF versions generally runs ~ $30 more.
Funny story, my son and I were flying this after he got it for his birthday, and well I was at the controls and got a little crazy, as it was coming down fast, I pressed the self leveling panic button, it leveled so fast that the battery came loose from the Velcro and fell to the ground, the plan just glided down. We searched and searched for the battery, couldn't find it, right before we left though, my son walked out into the field and he was like "dad, I found the battery" ha ha. word of advice, make sure the battery is secure. Kind of wish the battery was inside a compartment, probably the only gripe about this plane, Very Fun and well worth the money. This was our first plane and it has been a blast.
Think you should keep to beginner planes for this as it is really helpful, I am a beginner flyer and have took a lot of tips on how to fly from use thank you for your videos
Soooooooo right about keeping the lingo in check !! or more to the point, explaining what the lingo means - especially with this being an entry-level plane. thumbs up
I FLEW!!!!!!! Plane came in last night. Charge the battery this morning. What a blast! Thanks to The RC Saylors for posting this video. It got me in the air!!
You forgot to mention that it is FPV ready, under the sticker on top of the wing, there is a power leed for a micro camera. My favourite plane to fly in the Gym, also outside even in light winds.
My dad is about 70 years old and has always enjoyed watching other people fly RC planes. A couple of things have kept him from getting his own plane. Cost and he has moderate tremors. THIS would be the perfect gift for him! Glad I saw this video!
Rob we sincerely hope your Dad is able to take to the skies with this plane soon! If you haven't purchased it yet, have you seen the newer version of this that was just released? We've already made two videos on it, that I recommend you check out. If you have already bought this original version, no worries as you've still got an amazing RC. Here is our first video on it - ruclips.net/video/sgHJYmzpHhg/видео.html Here is our second video where we fly these planes together - ruclips.net/video/dCr3U7OiZIA/видео.html And here is where you can buy the newest version RTF - bit.ly/2VK2MxY Happy Flying!! -Nate
Not the UMX Mig for a first plane. It is way to underpowered and you have to be very careful. Also it’s an EDF and are harder than prop planes. I had one and was nice neighborhood flier though.
I am not a beginner but have been looking for something to fly in my backyard and teach my kids to fly. I will be picking up one of these. Thanks for the review!
I love mine, but will say to anyone wanting one who is starting out, get the ready to fly version, i got the bind and fly one because i had a good transmitter already, know how to do the setup and all that, to bind this thing you have to open it up by cutting the tape all the way down its fuselage, plus setting all its various flight modes and safe switch can be a bit much for a beginner. Plus as a bonus, when you get more into the hobby and want to step up to BnF RC's you can always bind this to your transmitter later, but you have the one it game with as a backup. I'd recommend a jumper t16 as a radio, it can bind up to most brands, if you guys dont have one, you should get one, just get the + version that has the multi module inside it now instead of in the expansion bay. in fact it would be a great thing to show off when you do binding tutorials
You shouldn’t have to cut the plane apart to bind it. If you just turn the plane on while sitting upright it will go into bind mode after about 5 seconds. Jumper T16 is a great radio but OPENTX takes a bit to learn. Spektrum radios are much simpler and the instructions are given for how to set up a Spektrum radio for this plane or any other a Horizon plane. Jumper T16 is a great bang for the buck and has come a long way in a short amount of time has 16 channels and the sky is the limit for what it can do. Anyone who doesn’t mind putting the work in go Jumper, if you want a simpler way go Spektrum. I own both.
I have been flying FPV drones for 5 years, Decided I needed to learn to fly planes line of site. I learned with this plane. it is great in no wind conditions... I am flying lots of planes now, but this survived me learning to fly line of sight!
Did I still choose a really good beginner plane by buying the Aeroscout S2?? :) :) I'm sure I did make an amazing choice by buying the Aeroscout S2!! :D
This plane completely died on me. I can't reconnect to the plane at all. Can't believe every review for this plane is extremely positive, it's extremely hard to fly it's a constant struggle to keep it in the air with how underpowered it is. This plane is garbage don't buy it, buy a real rc plane.
Well just learned a valuable lesson don't fly this light plane way too high especially in a little wind because the wind may be stronger higher up but anyway mines just got blown away.
So I got this plane and after a few flights, the servos on the right aileron stopped working so when I try to do banks only the left aileron is moving. The rudder and elevators are all working and the wires seem fine no signs of damage. Anyone have a similar prob?
I just received mine a few days ago. This plane makes me look like I know what I’m doing!😂 I used to fly RC but only briefly, never made it past a couple trainers. With an electric motor and all the stabilization tech, this plane is a breeze to fly. Thanks for the vid, great content.
Thank you for explaining this to me I am a and immediate flyer myself but I'm getting my grandson involved in it and I want him as a train of this is going to be unbelievable thank you for showing us this will help us out in the long run I am very happy that you took the opportunity to show us everything and I am going to order one this week once again thanks a lot have a nice night God-bless
I love this plane, been flying mine for the last 4 years. upgraded the motor & tires for more bush flying. Added the FPV cam to chase other planes, & with the upgraded motor it can pull streamer 20+ ft long. My hobby shop sells it for $100. This & the Corsair are my favorite.
You two are awesome!! Thank you for the hard work, in the heat, cold, loose dogs and creepy vans!! I've never flown before and I just ordered this (Horizon Hobby) yesterday for my son and I. But I'm sure we are going to be adding to our "hangar" very soon. Subscribed!!
Getting back into RC planes after a long absence and bought one. It is fun to fly and definitely tough. It's amazing how far they have come with the technology since I left the hobby. My only complaint with it is the quality of the velcro to attach the battery. Hit too hard and the battery would come out. Even came out during a hand launch, just hanging down. It was an easy fix though. I took 3M Command velcro strip cut it to size and replaced both the velcro in the plane and on the battery. Really enjoy your videos, as they have helped me choose planes to buy to get back in the hobby.
Thank you for this video...I'm making up my mind on which plane to buy and fly 1st...this is up there...but the P-51 Mustang is up there...the smaller plane has my attention...thank you both and get well soon...
Plane is fantastic. My only recommendation would be to round off the sharp inside corner in the wing at the inboard side of each aileron. The sharp corner allowes the thin foam wing to crack starting at this corner over time from just flying. Just heat up a drill bit and melt through the corner to round it out, this will eliminate the stress that concentrates in the sharp corner and causes the tear. Sharp inside corners are a no no in aircraft sheetmetal for this exact reason. It's the reason that square windows were removed from commercial liners after the Comet (first commercial pressurized cabin jet liner) when the corners at the windows developed cracks and caused several in flight break ups. Every one of these Cubs we've been through (3 or 4) has developed these cracks fairly quickly.
What was the wind MPH when the video was filmed? Can you make a video explaining how to fly a 4channel or have a video where half the screen is showing using the controller and the other half the plane flying? Grate video by the way.😁
Great video. I'm interested in getting into the hobby, thanks to my father in law. I was considering this plane. I think I'm going to buy this after seeing this video.
Great video. Taught my grand son to fly this starting with an old real flight sim then this. Second day he was doing everything on his own. We made some big smiles today...
I believe I heard them say that you are able to bind that transmitter to other umx Planes.......Hopefully the small umx warthog plane? Anybody know the answer to this?
Got my 8 year old son this for Christmas, he has never flown anything, took it out yesterday for its maiden flight and he had a blast, and I had a blast watching him. Thinking about getting one for myself now haha
This is a great series guys! You two helped me start in the hobby not too long ago, and I owe you a huge thanks for all your info in the hobby. Kudos to the both of you for everything....thanks!
The UMX line from the HobbyZone company absolutely keeps the new pilots planes in a mass to weight ratio that keeps the planes flying, which is the goal. Timber UMX with flaps or the PT-17 biplane would be great next steps, after that, a high or even midwing, 3-4 ft wingspan plane would be the following step, then a low wing. Great job on the videos.
I have one and I hate it. It is too small and gutless. It is nice to fly when there is absolutely zero wind, however in the U.K still weather is rare. Bigger is easier and safer in light wind also any plane can be fitted with a gyro to add "safe" to keep things well erm safe.
I got a champ for my little sister who I’m trying to teach how to fly and when I flew it I could fly it on almost no throttle and the controls are really easy. I highly recommend it and the duet.
the Horizon hobby Champ is the easiest, sports cub s is a 4 channel and not as easy as it is when AS3X is off, also the Motor will wear out faster then later. Champ is hte way to go
I just bought a carbon cub rtf from Horizon and although I haven't got a chance to fly it yet due to crappy pennsylvania weather, I'm ready. I joined a club, got an instructor, and joined AMA. I just need better weather. The reason I'm commenting is because I might order one of these to just go enjoy flying without driving out to the field. I think I can fly that in the parking lot of our football field. When there isn't a game of course lol. You guys have the most awesome videos on your products. I've learned more about what to expect from my cub than any reading I've done. Great videos!
Just say Hello from Mechanicsville Va. I have been watching you , Nat and Abby for soon time now. Upon your reviews I have purchased Horizon Hobby Champ for my grandson and Sport Cub S2 for myself, but not flown yet due to the weather in Va. at this time. I enjoy yours reviews DON`T STOP. Your video reviews are the Highlight of my day. So, my grandson can watch them with me, and there no bad words being said. I saw your review the ZLRC SG 906 Pro 2 I want for the future - can you tell Banggood has good customer service? So thanks.
This means a lot to us Michael, thank you! Bangood has customer service, but nowhere near as good as Horizon. They get the job done, but you may have to jump through a couple extra hoops to get there, if needed. Good company though. We wouldn't recommend them if they weren't. Hope this helps! Just be careful what you buy, like anything. See if we have a video on it, or someone else you trust before buying it.
@@TheRcSaylors thank you for your response. Is there a email address I can use if I more questions. My email thunderbolt575@gmail.com. Be well, God bless.
Another outstanding review by the rcsaylors!! I'm a new Carbon Cub S+ owner, haven't flown in 20 years, and am already considering this for another plane! Please keep them coming -- how about a couple on ARF gas powered planes? I flew Tower Hobbies 40 and 60 trainers for years and see they are now out of business or at least have been gutted. You may already have posted one, I, subscribed and will look for one! Thank You!
Hi Nate and Abby, This is such a great idea. I had good success with the Champ and then bought this plane and several drones. I have only flown drones for 2 years so l'm still looking forward to my first 4 channel plane.
Almost ready to buy my first trainer airplane. You guys are amazing at explaining and comparing products. I’m ordering this tonight and hopefully if all goes well and I take to flying, the Eflite F15 eventually. Thanks
I just bought this last month for my first R/C airplane. I've flown quads for a year and a half, and was watching a bunch of your videos, and it was actually one of the warbirds your were testing, I think it was the airacobra P39. It jogged some great memories I had building model airplanes, and frustrating ones of never getting that gas engine to start with the old r/c planes. I bought this, and it's such a confidence booster! Love the safe mode! I've crashed a bunch, and it's still going, although it's nose is starting to resemble a bulldog. Have just ordered a UMX Timber, because I want the brushless motor, and lights, and bush tires etc...But I don't regret getting the Sport Cub S, cause I got my wife to fly it, and maybe we can have those dogfights I was dreaming about as a kid!lol. Thanks, Saylors, for stirring up those old feelings!
I've always seen this and heard it called a micro plane.I was thinking of a 8 inch wingspan. Then I saw someone measure it. I got this and was planning on a first birthday flight, but it started snowing and misting so has to wait. Don't know if I want to still get the Carbon or stay with this one for now and get used to flying.
Thanks! I bought one and think that it is a perfect trainer. It is so light that a "crash" has low impact. Tips: balance and trim carefully. They tend to be tail heavy. Launch and land into the wind. I got bush tires and strengthened landing gear. Don't add weight or heavy paint. The basic transmitter is darn good!
Best advise would be to fly with someone that's been doing it for a while, they can teach you a lot! If you don't have someone like that available I'd suggest getting the HobyZone Carbon Cub S+ (www.horizonhobby.com/HBZ3250?KPID=HBZ3250&CAWELAID=320011980001326060&CAGPSPN=pla&CAAGID=104213710024&CATCI=pla-881853562302&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIm9rbvM7M6AIVLiCtBh39vQfYEAYYASABEgIOXfD_BwE) Its larger size helps make it easier to control (not what I expected as I was first learning), it has the SAFE system like this plane but more importantly has a GPS suite that will help keep the plane from flying away from you, it also has an auto-land feature. The landings are a bit rough on auto-land, but a whole lot better than my first attempts.
Question. I have never thought about a plane until this video. Do you think someone who casually drives RC cars would also love flying? And, would this be the best one for price for brand new person? Thanks sooo much!!
Sure, try it. I have trucks, cars, buggy, boats both nitro and electric and after buying my first plane (Sport Cub S), I fell in love with flying. I know have like 8 planes and still learning. Try this planet and if possible then move to the Timber 1.5. Also a great beginners plane but large scale. Do not go into Warbirds until you master the Sport Cub S and timber.... But try it, you will enjoy it and it will be easier for you who already have some experience with RC (meaning, your fingers are already trained).
This popped up as a recommended video and i wanted to say this was my first plane. It was recommended to be by a local hobby shop and I'm eternally thankful for it. I was able to learn to fly fixed wing without being scared I'd lose the plane or crash it into something and cause property damage. It was an easy transition from quads and helis and nice to be able to take off and land from my driveway and fly safely up and down my street and the cul-de-sac.
I was big into RC in the mid 1970's, this looks like a good way to get back into it. I also have a Spektrum DX6i that I bought a few years ago to bind with a tiny helicopter so I imagine it would work with the Bind & Fly. The Apprentice Mini BNF might also be a good place to start.
I wanted to say thanks RCSailors for producing these vidios. I ordered mine today have been interested for a long time in the hobby but this will be my first .thanks to y'all. I had a control line cox stuka as a kid was a ER trip waiting to happen . Long before safety regulations
The hobby has come a very long way my friend, even just in the last five years! I'm sure you are in for an absolute treat! It helps us if you order using our provided links, so if you happened to do that, I thank you very much! Happy Flying 👍⚓😎
@@TheRcSaylors I apologize I did not use the link but intend to email them in the morning and will be sure to inform them my purchase was directly influenced by you video. Thanks again for your time and efforts to inform those of us new to the hobby. I enjoy the videos and have subscribed. And sorry about the misspelling In the initial comment
FYI if anyone uses a DX8G2 radio ....DO NOT USE THE INTENDED INFORMATION(from manual) use the DX6 & DX9 set up info for this plane......... manufacture mistake.... that took two long days to figure out !!!!
Great video! I love this plane! Been flying it for 4 years now. Even after my skills improved, this plane still proved to be fun to fly! Note: I am able to roll this plane in expert mode. I even do Cuban 8's all the time. Not sure why it wouldn't let you do so.....
Love this video! I got this plane about a month ago, and while watching this I’ve noticed something strange. While in beginner mode, the SAFE doesn’t keep the controls in the correcting position, does what it should be doing in advanced.
this plane is amazing. it was my first plane and its still my favourite. it flys so well even with a little wind. it can also take a beating. also easy to fix with some ca glue or hot glue. i do recomend getting a better transmitter. i got a spektrum dx6 and it change the flying experience a lot. the range on the rtf transmitter is limited and it will loose signal with the plane which ends up in your plane flying solo and a big walk to find it. with the dx6 this has never been a problem. so aweosme tough easy to fly little plane that is a hell of a lot fun to fly.
OK, this model has blown my mind. The first RC plane I saw was a gas-powered behemoth in 1959, single-channel rudder only with a rubber band to power the escapement...the rudder 'motor'. Then when I got into it I built my own radio from a kit in...1980? A large two-channel model with a FOX .40 gas engine. Then I got married, lived a life, etc. I am SO out of touch with RC planes that I am considering getting into it with one of these models...BUT... I want a larger model, with RC gear that I can install in a later, larger plane later on. I'd like to get into OLDTIMER RC, with the vintage stuff/designs. Any suggestions?
I just got this plane about a week ago, it flies great but...you CANNOT have any wind over 8 mph...it will be thrown all over the place. Unfortunately, here in North Dallas, this area has a large field but I can NEVER fly this plane...Its ALWAYS over 10 mph wind conditions. It cannot handle any wind at all. Its sooo light it just gets thrown all over the place.
I find myself saying this a lot with Horizon Hobby products, but...I don't get it. For less than half the price, you could get an XK A800, which comes RtF, is 2S, is larger, has a direct drive motor, has horn servos instead of linear, and is made of much thicker, coarser EPP foam that can actually be glued back together after a crash. On top of all that, it has comparable gyro stabilization features, including an auto-level flight mode that can be used like SAFE if you ever need to get yourself out of trouble. Even at two-thirds the price of the Sport Cub, you could still get the A600 if you're specifically looking for something the same size as the Cub, but get 2S power, a brushless motor, and all the same gyro stabilization features as the other XK planes.
Hi.I have bought a Sport Cub S2 RTF, and am very disappointed with its performance. In anything other than an absolute dead calm - no wind AT ALL - it is very difficult to fly. It couldn't head into the wind even though it was very very light - no more than 2-3mph. (See my earlier comment). It tends to climb then turn downwind unless I correct it, and basically stops dead in the air facing into the wind, even on full throttle. So, basically I'm looking for another 4 channel plane that is a bit more powerful - 2s or 3s, probably brushless - a bit heavier and larger so it will cope with a bit of wind etc. What I'd like to know is whether or not I can use the Sport Cub S2's transmitter with another BNF plane. What specs should I be looking for in a BNF plane to bind with the transmitter I got with the Cub? Can you recommend anything? Please help - I've had no response elsewhere so far.
After seeing the review I was persuaded to buy one of these, and I wish I hadn't. It is so light that it is impossible to fly it in anything but a dead calm - any wind at all can not be handled. I flew it in very light winds - only a few MPH - and if turned into the wind it just climbed and then unless fully corrected, it turned and flew downwind. I would NOT recommend this for a novice! Eventually, a hard landing has put the motor mount out of vertical alignment and I can't correct that. Waste of £150. It's now back in the box and will stay there. Very disappointed.
Well I’m like a kid waiting for Christmas. I recently got back into flying little a coaxial heli, and then ordered no less than four product, including this one. I have a fairly big back yard, I hope you don’t need too much space, at least until I can head to the fields and they’re are many nearby. I also picked up three Blade helis. A 200s fixed pitch to get started on and also an mCP for getting into collective pitch and an indoor Blade 70 S. Ya I went in headfirst but I’ve no doubt Il have a lot of fun based on how much I’ve enjoyed flying the unsteady little coaxials. Any advice as far as the best replacement batteries and multi chargers? Thanks for the video and happy flying to all.
I'm a beginner to RC planes and am thinking about buying this? Do you think I would outgrow it quickly if I fly often? The "advanced" flying mode seems cool, but do you think it's enough to not outgrow it quickly?
I just got back into rc airplanes and such, this was the first and only airplane I’ve owned so far. Mine is a bit screwed up from previous flights but, I am planning on flying it again soon. Any Suggestions for a second plane? I am looking at the e-flight v-22 osprey VTOL. I am just not sure if it is suitable for a person going from this plane to that one

Awesome plane beginner plane which can take off from grass and land smoothly. I thought it was going to flip. LOL Thank you
If I get into the RC planes or drones, are we supposed to register with FAA or something?
Dang I received my Sport Cub BNF yesterday. I had watched your video of the Champ and I had decided to get a smaller plane because My Carbon Cub S+ which flies amazing but is just too big to take off and land from anywhere near my house. I didn't get the champ because I wanted SAFE with the "Oh crap" button and BNF is only $10 more than the Champ so a no brainier. I can use the BXe Transmitter that came with my Carbon cub S+.

Hey, Larry, I was so what's going on then? So did you get those Nintendo switch games? Right Super Mario Kart Mario Party Legend of Zelda Super Mario Brothers Splatoon 2 And that's all. .
Well at 75 years young and never tried rc flying! I think I will give this plane a go!
Thanks for a great explanation 😎
Dick
Best of luck, take it slow, it is very addictive and fun.
Richard Ness that’s the spirit!
Get the UMX Timber, it has the SAFE system like this cub but also provides more power so you aren't fighting a light breeze.
@John Pelcak For the bind and fly versions the plane shown here runs $99 and the UMX Timber runs $129. Getting the RTF versions generally runs ~ $30 more.
Take my advice - DON'T! See my comments above.
Funny story, my son and I were flying this after he got it for his birthday, and well I was at the controls and got a little crazy, as it was coming down fast, I pressed the self leveling panic button, it leveled so fast that the battery came loose from the Velcro and fell to the ground, the plan just glided down.

Kind of wish the battery was inside a compartment, probably the only gripe about this plane, Very Fun and well worth the money. This was our first plane and it has been a blast.
Should have put a parachute on that battery;-)
How much is this plane
@@paulkelly4400 RTF is $129.99 and the BNF Version is $99.99.
What should the voltage reading be when it is dangerous to send the plane back up.
I put clear tap just in case the Velcro isn’t enough
That plane is a ball to fly at dusk in the summer. You can fly it single handed with throttle and rudder freeing up your right hand to hold a beer. :)
You're gonna end up taking your eye out...

Think you should keep to beginner planes for this as it is really helpful, I am a beginner flyer and have took a lot of tips on how to fly from use thank you for your videos
You are very welcome my friend. We just started a beginner series on our channel recently. Might be worth your time to check that out 👍⚓😎
Soooooooo right about keeping the lingo in check !! or more to the point, explaining what the lingo means - especially with this being an entry-level plane. thumbs up
I FLEW!!!!!!! Plane came in last night. Charge the battery this morning. What a blast! Thanks to The RC Saylors for posting this video. It got me in the air!!
I think you guys just helped me make up my mind on my first ready to fly. Good video
Thank You for providing such good information that can be used by beginners! I have drones you recommend and look forward to a fixed wing soon
You forgot to mention that it is FPV ready, under the sticker on top of the wing, there is a power leed for a micro camera. My favourite plane to fly in the Gym, also outside even in light winds.
I love this plane but only fly in low wind > 10mph
It's Great how Nate is like a Giggly child when he's enjoying flying 😊😊lol👍🎉
Try a roll again 😊😊
My dad is about 70 years old and has always enjoyed watching other people fly RC planes. A couple of things have kept him from getting his own plane. Cost and he has moderate tremors. THIS would be the perfect gift for him! Glad I saw this video!
Rob we sincerely hope your Dad is able to take to the skies with this plane soon! If you haven't purchased it yet, have you seen the newer version of this that was just released? We've already made two videos on it, that I recommend you check out. If you have already bought this original version, no worries as you've still got an amazing RC. Here is our first video on it - ruclips.net/video/sgHJYmzpHhg/видео.html
Here is our second video where we fly these planes together - ruclips.net/video/dCr3U7OiZIA/видео.html
And here is where you can buy the newest version RTF - bit.ly/2VK2MxY
Happy Flying!!

This is a really great plane. I have one, flew it today and it is an amazing beginner plane. (I have a BNF version)
maybe the UmX mig 15?
Not the UMX Mig for a first plane. It is way to underpowered and you have to be very careful. Also it’s an EDF and are harder than prop planes. I had one and was nice neighborhood flier though.
how much did the plane cost you, I like to try it, I have several drones but no plane, tnx
Great video Nate. This stuff is really nice for the new guys:)
And got stickers today! YaY!:D
I am not a beginner but have been looking for something to fly in my backyard and teach my kids to fly. I will be picking up one of these. Thanks for the review!
The Sport Cub S is the plane that taught me to fly, from that to the Apprentice S+.
I love mine, but will say to anyone wanting one who is starting out, get the ready to fly version, i got the bind and fly one because i had a good transmitter already, know how to do the setup and all that, to bind this thing you have to open it up by cutting the tape all the way down its fuselage, plus setting all its various flight modes and safe switch can be a bit much for a beginner. Plus as a bonus, when you get more into the hobby and want to step up to BnF RC's you can always bind this to your transmitter later, but you have the one it game with as a backup. I'd recommend a jumper t16 as a radio, it can bind up to most brands, if you guys dont have one, you should get one, just get the + version that has the multi module inside it now instead of in the expansion bay. in fact it would be a great thing to show off when you do binding tutorials
You shouldn’t have to cut the plane apart to bind it. If you just turn the plane on while sitting upright it will go into bind mode after about 5 seconds.
Jumper T16 is a great radio but OPENTX takes a bit to learn. Spektrum radios are much simpler and the instructions are given for how to set up a Spektrum radio for this plane or any other a Horizon plane. Jumper T16 is a great bang for the buck and has come a long way in a short amount of time has 16 channels and the sky is the limit for what it can do. Anyone who doesn’t mind putting the work in go Jumper, if you want a simpler way go Spektrum. I own both.
I have bound mine to 3 different radios. You do not have to cut it open to bind it. Read the instruction book.
Yay you finally did it thanks a lot 😀
I have been flying FPV drones for 5 years, Decided I needed to learn to fly planes line of site. I learned with this plane. it is great in no wind conditions... I am flying lots of planes now, but this survived me learning to fly line of sight!
Did I still choose a really good beginner plane by buying the Aeroscout S2?? :) :) I'm sure I did make an amazing choice by buying the Aeroscout S2!! :D
Excellent first plane. A lot of people are learning to fly on these.
One of my favorite little park planes! Easy to fly like the apprentice!
I use it for target practice as it flys around by its self as I shoot it down. Then call AMA and get the insurance
money
This plane completely died on me. I can't reconnect to the plane at all. Can't believe every review for this plane is extremely positive, it's extremely hard to fly it's a constant struggle to keep it in the air with how underpowered it is. This plane is garbage don't buy it, buy a real rc plane.
Just ordered one. I've never flown. Wish me luck. Great video! Helped out a lot. Thanks!
And how is it? Thinking about it myself
I LOVE IT. Went out this morning and got 4 flights in! No crashes. It is a blast!
Well just learned a valuable lesson don't fly this light plane way too high especially in a little wind because the wind may be stronger higher up but anyway mines just got blown away.
So I got this plane and after a few flights, the servos on the right aileron stopped working so when I try to do banks only the left aileron is moving. The rudder and elevators are all working and the wires seem fine no signs of damage. Anyone have a similar prob?
Abbey; Thanks for your input at explaining different moves.

Wow, I never thought about buying a plane but this is very interesting.
Same thing I said 2 months ago, now I’m on my 3rd plane 🥺😂🥺
I just received mine a few days ago. This plane makes me look like I know what I’m doing!😂 I used to fly RC but only briefly, never made it past a couple trainers. With an electric motor and all the stabilization tech, this plane is a breeze to fly. Thanks for the vid, great content.
Great video guys! I love that you did this as a team. This will be my next plane!
Thank you for explaining this to me I am a and immediate flyer myself but I'm getting my grandson involved in it and I want him as a train of this is going to be unbelievable thank you for showing us this will help us out in the long run I am very happy that you took the opportunity to show us everything and I am going to order one this week once again thanks a lot have a nice night God-bless
I love this plane, been flying mine for the last 4 years. upgraded the motor & tires for more bush flying. Added the FPV cam to chase other planes, & with the upgraded motor it can pull streamer 20+ ft long. My hobby shop sells it for $100. This & the Corsair are my favorite.
You two are awesome!! Thank you for the hard work, in the heat, cold, loose dogs and creepy vans!! I've never flown before and I just ordered this (Horizon Hobby) yesterday for my son and I. But I'm sure we are going to be adding to our "hangar" very soon. Subscribed!!
Love this plane, just loads of fun!
take out the Electronics
It would be nice for even professional RC aircraft to have a nice big red panic button!
You must work for horizon hobby? Every plane needs stabilization. Lol.
NO SO FU$King Lame
@@shelbyseelbach9568 Yes as he does not know how to fly with out the Black Box.
AWESOME beginner plane!! Thanks Saylors for introducing me to better planes!! 💟👍😘
Getting back into RC planes after a long absence and bought one. It is fun to fly and definitely tough. It's amazing how far they have come with the technology since I left the hobby. My only complaint with it is the quality of the velcro to attach the battery. Hit too hard and the battery would come out. Even came out during a hand launch, just hanging down. It was an easy fix though. I took 3M Command velcro strip cut it to size and replaced both the velcro in the plane and on the battery. Really enjoy your videos, as they have helped me choose planes to buy to get back in the hobby.
The links you to buy don't work. It says OOOPs could not find.
Thank you for this video...I'm making up my mind on which plane to buy and fly 1st...this is up there...but the P-51 Mustang is up there...the smaller plane has my attention...thank you both and get well soon...
My first plane, and still a favorite. Had a couple good flights today.
Plane is fantastic. My only recommendation would be to round off the sharp inside corner in the wing at the inboard side of each aileron. The sharp corner allowes the thin foam wing to crack starting at this corner over time from just flying. Just heat up a drill bit and melt through the corner to round it out, this will eliminate the stress that concentrates in the sharp corner and causes the tear. Sharp inside corners are a no no in aircraft sheetmetal for this exact reason. It's the reason that square windows were removed from commercial liners after the Comet (first commercial pressurized cabin jet liner) when the corners at the windows developed cracks and caused several in flight break ups. Every one of these Cubs we've been through (3 or 4) has developed these cracks fairly quickly.
What was the wind MPH when the video was filmed? Can you make a video explaining how to fly a 4channel or have a video where half the screen is showing using the controller and the other half the plane flying? Grate video by the way.😁
Representing Gulf Coast! Merry Christmas Saylors!
Great video. I'm interested in getting into the hobby, thanks to my father in law. I was considering this plane. I think I'm going to buy this after seeing this video.
Great video. Taught my grand son to fly this starting with an old real flight sim then this. Second day he was doing everything on his own. We made some big smiles today...
I believe I heard them say that you are able to bind that transmitter to other umx
Planes.......Hopefully the small umx warthog plane?
Anybody know the answer to this?
Got my 8 year old son this for Christmas, he has never flown anything, took it out yesterday for its maiden flight and he had a blast, and I had a blast watching him. Thinking about getting one for myself now haha
I bet your son was good with the x box al ready 😊
An indoor plane for the winter.
This is a great series guys! You two helped me start in the hobby not too long ago, and I owe you a huge thanks for all your info in the hobby. Kudos to the both of you for everything....thanks!
The UMX line from the HobbyZone company absolutely keeps the new pilots planes in a mass to weight ratio that keeps the planes flying, which is the goal.
Timber UMX with flaps or the PT-17 biplane would be great next steps, after that, a high or even midwing, 3-4 ft wingspan plane would be the following step, then a low wing.
Great job on the videos.
I used to have the Champ, but I barely ever flew. I've been looking at getting back into the hobby after being away for like 6 years or something.
now it is $160... great job Horizon.
Great plane I got it for my 14 year old son .
Great 👍 video for a beginner like me😂.
I have one and I hate it. It is too small and gutless.
It is nice to fly when there is absolutely zero wind, however in the U.K still weather is rare.
Bigger is easier and safer in light wind also any plane can be fitted with a gyro to add "safe" to keep things well erm safe.
100% agree I'm getting a Timber X because the wind smashed this plane into the ground too many times. It has no power and can barely do anything.
I got a champ for my little sister who I’m trying to teach how to fly and when I flew it I could fly it on almost no throttle and the controls are really easy. I highly recommend it and the duet.
the Horizon hobby Champ is the easiest, sports cub s is a 4 channel and not as easy as it is when AS3X is off, also the Motor will wear out faster then later. Champ is hte way to go
Would you be able to upgrade your aeroscout to give more throw.. moving the push-rod mounting position.. I know it would help alot of pilots..
I just bought a carbon cub rtf from Horizon and although I haven't got a chance to fly it yet due to crappy pennsylvania weather, I'm ready. I joined a club, got an instructor, and joined AMA. I just need better weather. The reason I'm commenting is because I might order one of these to just go enjoy flying without driving out to the field. I think I can fly that in the parking lot of our football field. When there isn't a game of course lol. You guys have the most awesome videos on your products. I've learned more about what to expect from my cub than any reading I've done. Great videos!
Just say Hello from Mechanicsville Va. I have been watching you , Nat and Abby for soon time now. Upon your reviews I have purchased Horizon Hobby Champ for my grandson and Sport Cub S2 for myself, but not flown yet due to the weather in Va. at this time. I enjoy yours reviews DON`T STOP. Your video reviews are the Highlight of my day. So, my grandson can watch them with me, and there no bad words being said. I saw your review the ZLRC SG 906 Pro 2 I want for the future - can you tell Banggood has good customer service? So thanks.
This means a lot to us Michael, thank you! Bangood has customer service, but nowhere near as good as Horizon. They get the job done, but you may have to jump through a couple extra hoops to get there, if needed. Good company though. We wouldn't recommend them if they weren't. Hope this helps! Just be careful what you buy, like anything. See if we have a video on it, or someone else you trust before buying it.
@@TheRcSaylors thank you for your response. Is there a email address I can use if I more questions. My email thunderbolt575@gmail.com. Be well, God bless.
Another outstanding review by the rcsaylors!! I'm a new Carbon Cub S+ owner, haven't flown in 20 years, and am already considering this for another plane! Please keep them coming -- how about a couple on ARF gas powered planes? I flew Tower Hobbies 40 and 60 trainers for years and see they are now out of business or at least have been gutted. You may already have posted one, I, subscribed and will look for one! Thank You!
You should bring up or make a video about the current and upcoming FAA laws. New comers may not know about it. It goes for drones and planes.
That’s what I used to learn and guess what. A year later I can’t fit another plane in my garage. Love the hobby.
That is so awesome Sam 😃😎 Happy Flying 👍⚓
Nice job! Hopefully these videos will help people get started. #flyrc365
That's the goal! Thank you 👍⚓😎
Hi Nate and Abby, This is such a great idea. I had good success with the Champ and then bought this plane and several drones. I have only flown drones for 2 years so l'm still looking forward to my first 4 channel plane.
Almost ready to buy my first trainer airplane. You guys are amazing at explaining and comparing products. I’m ordering this tonight and hopefully if all goes well and I take to flying, the Eflite F15 eventually. Thanks
the volantex sport cub 500 is about £50 and it has 6G, mid and expert settings!! you need to fly that, its brilliant
I just bought this last month for my first R/C airplane. I've flown quads for a year and a half, and was watching a bunch of your videos, and it was actually one of the warbirds your were testing, I think it was the airacobra P39. It jogged some great memories I had building model airplanes, and frustrating ones of never getting that gas engine to start with the old r/c planes. I bought this, and it's such a confidence booster! Love the safe mode! I've crashed a bunch, and it's still going, although it's nose is starting to resemble a bulldog. Have just ordered a UMX Timber, because I want the brushless motor, and lights, and bush tires etc...But I don't regret getting the Sport Cub S, cause I got my wife to fly it, and maybe we can have those dogfights I was dreaming about as a kid!lol. Thanks, Saylors, for stirring up those old feelings!
That would be great to learn on. Those batteries are tiny. How much flight time did you get?
I've always seen this and heard it called a micro plane.I was thinking of a 8 inch wingspan. Then I saw someone measure it. I got this and was planning on a first birthday flight, but it started snowing and misting so has to wait. Don't know if I want to still get the Carbon or stay with this one for now and get used to flying.
Love that build time..... lol
Thanks! I bought one and think that it is a perfect trainer. It is so light that a "crash" has low impact. Tips: balance and trim carefully. They tend to be tail heavy. Launch and land into the wind. I got bush tires and strengthened landing gear. Don't add weight or heavy paint. The basic transmitter is darn good!
do you lice star wars tate lol
You guys did a review of this plane 3 days after the birthday that I got it. I know its a late comment.
I'm 9 I'm just starting rc aviation plz give advise
Best advise would be to fly with someone that's been doing it for a while, they can teach you a lot!
If you don't have someone like that available I'd suggest getting the HobyZone Carbon Cub S+ (www.horizonhobby.com/HBZ3250?KPID=HBZ3250&CAWELAID=320011980001326060&CAGPSPN=pla&CAAGID=104213710024&CATCI=pla-881853562302&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIm9rbvM7M6AIVLiCtBh39vQfYEAYYASABEgIOXfD_BwE)
Its larger size helps make it easier to control (not what I expected as I was first learning), it has the SAFE system like this plane but more importantly has a GPS suite that will help keep the plane from flying away from you, it also has an auto-land feature. The landings are a bit rough on auto-land, but a whole lot better than my first attempts.
On take off up elevator AND some right rudder
Yeah that will help with the torque of the motor and prop 👍 Good tip! 😁😎⚓️
Question. I have never thought about a plane until this video. Do you think someone who casually drives RC cars would also love flying? And, would this be the best one for price for brand new person? Thanks sooo much!!
Sure, try it. I have trucks, cars, buggy, boats both nitro and electric and after buying my first plane (Sport Cub S), I fell in love with flying. I know have like 8 planes and still learning. Try this planet and if possible then move to the Timber 1.5. Also a great beginners plane but large scale. Do not go into Warbirds until you master the Sport Cub S and timber.... But try it, you will enjoy it and it will be easier for you who already have some experience with RC (meaning, your fingers are already trained).
Love this, decided this is the one for me, thanks guys
Happy Flying Pete!
Getting mine tomorrow!!! Can't wait to fly!
This popped up as a recommended video and i wanted to say this was my first plane. It was recommended to be by a local hobby shop and I'm eternally thankful for it. I was able to learn to fly fixed wing without being scared I'd lose the plane or crash it into something and cause property damage. It was an easy transition from quads and helis and nice to be able to take off and land from my driveway and fly safely up and down my street and the cul-de-sac.
I was big into RC in the mid 1970's, this looks like a good way to get back into it. I also have a Spektrum DX6i that I bought a few years ago to bind with a tiny helicopter so I imagine it would work with the Bind & Fly. The Apprentice Mini BNF might also be a good place to start.
I wanted to say thanks RCSailors for producing these vidios. I ordered mine today have been interested for a long time in the hobby but this will be my first .thanks to y'all. I had a control line cox stuka as a kid was a ER trip waiting to happen . Long before safety regulations
The hobby has come a very long way my friend, even just in the last five years! I'm sure you are in for an absolute treat! It helps us if you order using our provided links, so if you happened to do that, I thank you very much! Happy Flying 👍⚓😎
@@TheRcSaylors I apologize I did not use the link but intend to email them in the morning and will be sure to inform them my purchase was directly influenced by you video. Thanks again for your time and efforts to inform those of us new to the hobby. I enjoy the videos and have subscribed. And sorry about the misspelling In the initial comment
FYI if anyone uses a DX8G2 radio ....DO NOT USE THE INTENDED INFORMATION(from manual) use the DX6 & DX9 set up info for this plane......... manufacture mistake.... that took two long days to figure out !!!!
Great video! I love this plane! Been flying it for 4 years now. Even after my skills improved, this plane still proved to be fun to fly! Note: I am able to roll this plane in expert mode. I even do Cuban 8's all the time. Not sure why it wouldn't let you do so.....
Love this video! I got this plane about a month ago, and while watching this I’ve noticed something strange. While in beginner mode, the SAFE doesn’t keep the controls in the correcting position, does what it should be doing in advanced.
this plane is amazing. it was my first plane and its still my favourite. it flys so well even with a little wind. it can also take a beating. also easy to fix with some ca glue or hot glue. i do recomend getting a better transmitter. i got a spektrum dx6 and it change the flying experience a lot. the range on the rtf transmitter is limited and it will loose signal with the plane which ends up in your plane flying solo and a big walk to find it. with the dx6 this has never been a problem. so aweosme tough easy to fly little plane that is a hell of a lot fun to fly.
Mini apprentice my first. Great plane
OK, this model has blown my mind.
The first RC plane I saw was a gas-powered behemoth in 1959, single-channel rudder only with a rubber band to power the escapement...the rudder 'motor'.
Then when I got into it I built my own radio from a kit in...1980?
A large two-channel model with a FOX .40 gas engine.
Then I got married, lived a life, etc.
I am SO out of touch with RC planes that I am considering getting into it with one of these models...BUT...
I want a larger model, with RC gear that I can install in a later, larger plane later on. I'd like to get into OLDTIMER RC, with the vintage stuff/designs. Any suggestions?
I just got this plane about a week ago, it flies great but...you CANNOT have any wind over 8 mph...it will be thrown all over the place. Unfortunately, here in North Dallas, this area has a large field but I can NEVER fly this plane...Its ALWAYS over 10 mph wind conditions. It cannot handle any wind at all. Its sooo light it just gets thrown all over the place.
You guys both are awesome. ! Your videos got me flying the carbon cub s+. What a great plane. Keep up the great videos !!!!
The timber landing gear is a nice upgrade.....
Brian Chambers does that make the CG bad?
@@bryceh2163 Just a little tweak
I find myself saying this a lot with Horizon Hobby products, but...I don't get it. For less than half the price, you could get an XK A800, which comes RtF, is 2S, is larger, has a direct drive motor, has horn servos instead of linear, and is made of much thicker, coarser EPP foam that can actually be glued back together after a crash. On top of all that, it has comparable gyro stabilization features, including an auto-level flight mode that can be used like SAFE if you ever need to get yourself out of trouble.
Even at two-thirds the price of the Sport Cub, you could still get the A600 if you're specifically looking for something the same size as the Cub, but get 2S power, a brushless motor, and all the same gyro stabilization features as the other XK planes.
Hi.I have bought a Sport Cub S2 RTF, and am very disappointed with its performance. In anything other than an absolute dead calm - no wind AT ALL - it is very difficult to fly. It couldn't head into the wind even though it was very very light - no more than 2-3mph. (See my earlier comment). It tends to climb then turn downwind unless I correct it, and basically stops dead in the air facing into the wind, even on full throttle. So, basically I'm looking for another 4 channel plane that is a bit more powerful - 2s or 3s, probably brushless - a bit heavier and larger so it will cope with a bit of wind etc. What I'd like to know is whether or not I can use the Sport Cub S2's transmitter with another BNF plane. What specs should I be looking for in a BNF plane to bind with the transmitter I got with the Cub? Can you recommend anything?
Please help - I've had no response elsewhere so far.
Having a hard time get in plane to fly evening level. Wants to stay nose up.
After seeing the review I was persuaded to buy one of these, and I wish I hadn't. It is so light that it is impossible to fly it in anything but a dead calm - any wind at all can not be handled. I flew it in very light winds - only a few MPH - and if turned into the wind it just climbed and then unless fully corrected, it turned and flew downwind. I would NOT recommend this for a novice! Eventually, a hard landing has put the motor mount out of vertical alignment and I can't correct that. Waste of £150. It's now back in the box and will stay there. Very disappointed.
Well I’m like a kid waiting for Christmas. I recently got back into flying little a coaxial heli, and then ordered no less than four product, including this one. I have a fairly big back yard, I hope you don’t need too much space, at least until I can head to the fields and they’re are many nearby. I also picked up three Blade helis. A 200s fixed pitch to get started on and also an mCP for getting into collective pitch and an indoor Blade 70 S. Ya I went in headfirst but I’ve no doubt Il have a lot of fun based on how much I’ve enjoyed flying the unsteady little coaxials. Any advice as far as the best replacement batteries and multi chargers? Thanks for the video and happy flying to all.
I'm a beginner to RC planes and am thinking about buying this? Do you think I would outgrow it quickly if I fly often? The "advanced" flying mode seems cool, but do you think it's enough to not outgrow it quickly?
I just got back into rc airplanes and such, this was the first and only airplane I’ve owned so far. Mine is a bit screwed up from previous flights but, I am planning on flying it again soon. Any Suggestions for a second plane? I am looking at the e-flight v-22 osprey VTOL. I am just not sure if it is suitable for a person going from this plane to that one
How does the Sport Cub S 2 compare to the Volantex Sport Cub 500? They seem, in a way, the same. Compare flying in a park for a beginner.
