The HobbyZone Carbon Cub S 2 1.3m RTF Basic (HBZ320001) is a ready-to-fly RC plane designed specifically for beginner pilots who want a capable, stable trainer straight out of the box. Based on the real-world Carbon Cub by CubCrafters, it features HobbyZone's exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology, which actively helps prevent overcontrol and loss of orientation — making it one of the most forgiving RC aircraft available for new flyers. The 1.3m wingspan gives it a solid, stable presence in the air, while the durable EPO foam airframe keeps it light and resilient. As skills develop, the Carbon Cub S 2 grows with the pilot: three switchable flight modes (Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced) let you dial up the challenge at your own pace, and in Experienced Mode the aircraft is capable of loops, rolls, and inverted flight.
Key Features
- SAFE technology provides envelope protection in all flight modes, limiting extreme attitudes and helping beginners stay in control
- Panic Recovery mode instantly returns the aircraft to stable, level flight at the push of a button from any flight mode
- Three pilot modes — Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced — are switchable in flight to match your current skill level
- Oversized tundra-style tires allow take-off and landing on grass, gravel, dirt, and pavement; optional floats sold separately for water operations
- 30A telemetry-capable brushless ESC reports real-time motor RPM, current, and battery voltage to compatible Spektrum AirWare transmitters, with remaining battery power shown via LEDs on the included DXS transmitter
- Upgradeable with SAFE Plus GPS technology (sold separately) to add AutoLand, Virtual Fence, and Holding Pattern features
