Our description
The HobbyZone Sport Cub S 2 is a tiny foam trainer (616 mm wingspan, ~60 g flying weight) and, as an RTF, fully ready to fly: a 2.4 GHz Spektrum transmitter, a 1S LiPo (150 mAh) and a USB charger are included. At its heart is SAFE technology with three flight modes and a panic button that self-stabilises the model at the press of a button – according to reviews (Big Squid RC, AeronauticsMagazine) the panic recovery works reliably and saves those first flights. Thanks to its very low weight, the plane usually survives slow crash landings unscathed; repairs are easy with foam-safe CA glue or tape. The main criticisms in reviews and forums (FliteTest) are the pronounced wind sensitivity (practically only flyable in calm conditions) and the short flight time of around 6–9 minutes per battery. At under 250 g it is flyable even in small spaces.
