It has been way too long since we've featured an RC Plane on our channel, but we so happy to be flying them for you guys again! And what a way to kick it back off, with what we can confidently say is the best beginner RC Plane of 2018, The Horizon Hobby Carbon Cub S+ which comes completely RTF, or optionally BNF if you already have a transmitter and are looking to save some money! Technology like this, not even as good as this acually, just a few short years ago cost nearly double the price! It's amazing how far the hobby has come in the last few years, and we are so glad to be a part of it. Please, do yourselves a favor and pull the trigger on this, save up for it, or maybe try and get it around the holidays!

This is BY FAR the best video I've seen on this aircraft. I used to fly RC 20 years ago but gave it up because I was tired of spending 100 hours and God knows how many dollars building a plane and you KNOW sooner or later you're going to get overconfident and do something stupid like flying inverted three feet above the runway only to splatter your beautiful plane all over. This plane (and my six year old grandson...) has given me the gumption to buy it and attempt flying again! THANK YOU!
The drone chase footage is just incredibly beautiful.
if you would like to know flite test uses these fpv shots normally
Well, my friends, you have just earned the absolute, without any doubt, the BEST BEGINNERS' PLANE Review & Flying Video accolades, from me, that I can dream up! Hahaha I mean, WOW & DOUBLE-WOW! You have totally blown me away with the content, the excellent piloting, superb explanations from both of you, the beautiful aerial chase videography, and much more! It's all here in this one video! Let's see, did I say how much I liked it? No, I LOVED IT!!! OMG, Nate & Abby, this is one your finest reviews, E-V-E-R!!! :-) I left out editing - the mix back and forth between live flight & the cut-in spectacular drone chase shots, were perfect! OK, I'm done gushing! Whew! Man, writing this was exhilarating! Thanks again, for all that you fine friends, do! And please, take great care! JP
Great video that got me to resubscribe and consider at 78 years of age getting back into the hobby. At 78,there is a serious delay betwern eyes, brain and thumbs. 🙄
Just wondering.... Did you ever get one? I'm in your age group.
At 78 you are a wealth of knowledge to new comers. I got back in at age 28, newly married back in the 90's. The older men mentored me on aspects I never knew back in the 70's and 80's as a pup. And they mentored me on life in general.
Kudos to you Sir. You are sorely needed back in this hobby.
SZretired good for you. Know what you mean about eyes, brain, thumbs. Went blind in my right eye and 20% vision in left means no fast planes and limited drone flight at 65
Go for it! There are some excellent controllers out nowadays that are pretty forgiving as well as r/c aircraft. My older brother is 58 and got back into flying his r/c planes and is using a Futaba controller and is considering building a seat style system to use for flying his r/c planes. I'm into r/c vehicles as I never got the hang of flying r/c planes without catastrophic results, which becomes expensive after awhile. My brother has built more r/c planes over the years than your average r/c plane guy.
One of my favorites was a Bellanca Citabria Decathlon with an 8 foot wingspan that was built as a replica of our father's real Citabria that he owned when we were kids. This Carbon Cub and the automated landing, seems like a great plane that is seriously tempting me to pick one up. Good luck
Mr.SZretired. I hope you get back into flying r/c planes again. Cheers sir.
It sucks getting older. I used to use a stop watch to see how good I was, then a clock now it's a Damn calender .
But I do like how this puppy flies.
Absolutely incredible just how far the hobby has come in relation to technology. This plane doesn't even look like a trainer, gone are the days of loosing your plane and hit and miss episodes of learning. Fantastic it even comes back to you, thank you for showing and filming it and explaining how it works, great aerial shots too. Even at my age of 61 I could fly it, well done Horizon regards John Tasmania Australia
This is truly one of the best videos you have ever done IMO. It makes me feel like my grandsons and I could actually fly this plane, thank you both. Greetings from Florida
Great demo video from you two yet again just love the way you speak the truth about the aircraft...drones that you fly for us im enjoying catching up on your videos guys. Please keep them coming
Around 10 years ago I started the hobby with the hobby zone super cub. Great beginner airplane but didn’t have all the fancy return to home stuff back then.
Crazy how far technology has come :-)
And SZ the spastic bladder in the middle of that can cause landing problems. Great videos, keep them coming. I subbed!
THANK YOU for the airplane review! A very well done review as well, the chase footage was outstanding and added a very valuable point of view! Not to mention an amazing aircraft...WOW have things changed over the years, I started back in the 60's with free flight, control line and single channel pulse for RC! I might just have to get me one of these, they look like a lot of fun.
This plane may help me make the plunge into RC flying. Amazing technology at an extremely reasonable price. Thank you for showing all of the capabilities. Fun video!
Big thumbs up for having a second camera drone up there. Wow. I am impressed with your work there buddy.
Very awesome plane!!! Abby and Nate, so glad to be apart of this rc family. You two are Great people and keep doing what your doing. LOVE how you two DONT change with the more subs you get... And thats why I love watching your videos! Been subbed since you had right around 5k subs...... Love how you are real and dont hide it if the rc is crap, lol you will tells us "its crap"... Anyways please keep them coming. and less than 5 weeks until the "Mini Saylor" is here!!!! Congrats.
Great overview. I just received a Carbon Cub and this is a good way for newbies like me to get the hang of flying RC. I cannot wait to put it in intermediate and advanced modes. But, one step at a time. Great little airplane!
Bought a Carbon Cub after seeing your video. Been flying it on weekends for 3 weeks now and absolutely love it. My goal was to learn the basics and then move into a glider. Long story short I did a maiden flight with my new Night Radian yesterday with great success. The Carbon Cub gave the confidence and basic understanding of flight I needed to enter into a really fun hobby. In addition I've met some really great people in the process. Thanks for the great video.
Hi sir sh0uld i calibrate the plane before i fly it
I bought this plane as a result of this video and I absolutely love it. It has helped me to advance to good intermediate much faster than would otherwise be the case. I fly this plane on every possible occasion.
PS Like SZretired I am over 70 (rising 75) so you are never to old to start flying!
How do you like it so far? I'm one click away from buying it
Amazing plane! Inspired for sure. Been flying quads for a few years... now I'm thinking this would be sooo cool! Another example of why you guys are the best on CZcams. Spectacular video.
Hey, guys! Great video and amazing plane! Say, I have a “friend” who I know is a beginner pilot. He lives not too far from a very-big AMA field. He wants to fly this airplane in a couple weeks. I just wanted to let you know this is the perfect airplane for him! Thanks for showing this one! It’s great! 👍😀
Great video, love the air video footage as well!!! Glad to see you have a real winner on your hands!
Thank you very much Jason! Have a great day my friend :)
This is awesome. This is the plane we are considering for our first. We have only had ground RC to this point , well except we did get our first drone not long ago. Can’t wait to get into our first plane. Thanks for sharing! Been watching you guys for quite a long time now. You have helped inspire us to start a channel of our own. Thanks so much you guys rock!!
you guys really helped me decide to get this plane. i had a small plane i started out with but i wanted a bigger nicer plane and this is exactly what i was looking for. great flyer fast and also will soar at low speeds too. so i give this plane 5 stars. Also yall helped me when it came to getting a affordable rc 4x4 truck that is fun but at a great price and that is the Hosim 9125. That truck is soo much fun and holds up to bashing. So thank you guys!
So glad to hear it my friend. This plane looks great and flies so well. Have fun and happy flying :-)
@@TheRcSaylors Can you recommend something solid for under $150?
@@UnloadingMouse i have got an aeroscout and it was $150 but that was just the plane. the RTF (ready to fly) was $200 and it came with the battery, charger, plane and a spektrum DXEs. (RTF is worth it cause the transmitter alone is worth $70. plus the battery and charger)
I've learned to fly on an older version of the Super Cub about 7 years ago, this looks even more fun.
Love that chase footage & I am super impressed that this plane has GPS on it. Never ever seen a plane with that. For the price, you cant go wrong. Makes me wonder about getting one probably next year. Fantastic video Nate & Abby!!
Dude I love your hand gestures and the way you annunciate your voice with your hand motion while explaining your mistakes after it almost hit the building in this video.. good job on this video too btw
OK so I watched your video about this plane a month ago, been procrastinating because I didn’t wanna wipe all $300 plane in 30 seconds. It’s been 20 years since I’ve flown RC and that was on a sport trainer and it didn’t go very well. I went to my local airport field around I flew for an hour I managed over 30 landings (one was in a tree)the plane was better than I thought it would be and I would not hesitate again to go out so thank you. After half an hour I switch to high rates after another half an hour I was flipping the safety off and trying loops and flipping it back on if I got confused I hit the geo-fence once and it worked I did not try the auto landing. And on one of the start ups it did not do it set up right where it causes the throttle to pulse until you hit the home button but it flew fine. So glad I found your channel!
Excellent! Great video! Your drone view and explanation, superb!!! Honestly, two thumbs up and 5 stars for this one! Congrats 👏👏👏
The drone footage is so awesome!!!! Love it. I'm just getting into drones. I still haven't bought my first serious drone.....now I want this plane!
When i started flying last year this was my first plane and had only problems with it but i loved it. When it worked it flew great, which was not very often. I am on my 3rd one now and have rebuild it without the gps and the standard safe that comes with it. I have put in the new smart technology receiver and so far so good. Even with all the problems I’ve had with it it is still one of my favorite planes to fly and with the new smart receiver its even better.
Thanks for the vid!! This wil be my first plane!! Love it even more after seeing this!! Thanks a lot and greetings from the Netherlands!!
Kick butt video!! Great job guys. Might just look into this to get back into the hobby.
Literally the easiest way of learning to fly RC planes is this plane. First time I flew it on beginner mode and it flew beautifully without any crashes. Make sure your in beginners mode until you get comfortable. Great video Guys!
Best vid I've seen yet for this plane!!! Great job
Thanks a lot :-) Happy Flying my friend!
Great video! Also, great flying of the "chase plane" for the awesome in-flight video.
I love the design but I would make my own design
Must tell you guys..... The first video I saw was you demoing the XK A800. I went out and bought one and have had a ball flying it. I then saw this video and..... Lo and behold! a carbon Cub was given to me for Christmas. We are about to get out first snow storm tonight (live in MA). I have not had a chance to fly this beauty. I am hoping that I will get a chance this winter. Worse case, I find a clear frozen lake! Anyway, love your video's. Thanks you for doing them. I just subscribed. I am a 71 yr old guy just getting into this stuff. I'm dragging my 40 yr old son along with me. We are both having a good time. Thanks again, keep up the good work.
Wondering what plane to buy as a starter, wanted something of quality, going to get this. Thanks for the video, super informational.
So cool. Never flown a plain but this looks very easy to fly. Thank you for this. Might have to get me a plain now. Great review thank you. Also love the chase footage
This video is excellent and you are good people ! I am 73 and I'm going to get back into RC. When I flew RC it was all Nitro and Balsa and Hours of building etc. God Bless You and Merry Christmas 2019 Happy New Year ! Did I say you folks are fabulous.
You guys rock!! I'm getting this for my first plane, i get lazy eyes and sometimes lose focus of what i'm looking at so this is perfect for me i won't accidentally crash it!... well alot less chance!
Very Nice. And the chase scenes were well done. Thanks for keeping it fun!
Thank you very much :-) Happy Flying!
You guys do a really good job! Filming, Narrating, Commentating, Operating the RC Vehicles and Video Editing! You deserve more followers - keep up the good work! Cheers from Canada!
I started with an intermediate seaplane... Flew (?) it 4 times... Crashed it 4 times... Spent lots of time in a canoe retrieving it and trips to the hobby store for parts to fix it. I'm amazed I was actually able to get it home in one piece (albeit cracked in several places). I haven't had the guts to try again.. I need to get this beginner version and start over! Thanks for the video.
Great plane, great video and great drone shots! Really enjoyed it. Thanks.
Thanks RC Saylors for another wonderful video. You helped me with my RC car purchase for my son & I and now I am trying to decide between this & the Maule. Both have SAFE but the Maule has the flaps ready to go & floats, although I'm unsure if it flies as well as the cub. Im leaning towards the cub as its my very first RC plane. Thanks again. God Bless.
I can confidently say I have witnessed a total new person to the hobby fly this plane with ease at our airfield, and I know how well it flies myself from experience. I'd personally go this route! Also, be sure to let Horizon Hobby (or wherever you get it) know we sent ya ;-) Have a great day Rob, and Happy Flying!
Inspirational, confidence givers, great team 👍
I love this video and the plane. The fact that it can be a beginner and actually advance up to a more technical plane is awesome. I do not like flying things that look like toys! This one looks very impressive! The GPS really add a lot to the value, since if it is set properly you do not lose your plane or have it hurt someone. Nice video guys!
Great video, very informative. Impressive amount of technology in that plane.
I've been flying Horizon helicopters (Blade) for years and have always enjoyed the quality of their instruction booklets.
Man I tell you that's amazing playing never seen one like it before I flown a lot of planes this is definitely something new that is a nice plane lands on its own sweet I like that feature on a plane I always see it on drones but never on planes nice
It really is amazing how far technology has brought the hobby :-)
Nice flying man love it. might be looking for one soon ..thx for the upload
LOVE this video! Have lost 2 TopRace trainers to the "black hole".... and with that $.... could have purchased THIS gem.
Buying one NOW!
LOVE your drone chase footage... Gives a whole new perspective of how the plane flys! Love your videos... Great to see you 2 having so much fun... TOGETHER! ❤
LOVE... LOVE... LOVE the chase footage. Nice job!
Thank you very much! :-)
The Carbon Cub S+ is a great plane to learn on its what I learned on and I still enjoy flying it today.
Great video - looks like an awesome plane! I am thinking about adding this to my fleet to have as a handy 'trainer' plane for if someone happens to be with me and wants to learn to fly, and hasn't flown before - I think with this technology it will enable anyone who has never flown before to have a good successful first flight!
Great video Nate & Abby, Wow I'm amazed with that plane hasn't RC's come a long way (mind blown) I have never flown a RC plane ever before but maybe now I could try. Thankyou for sharing that with us, very impressive 2 BIG Thumbs up.
I've had RC cars my whole life, this plane makes me want one for sure. Great review and I like that you guys have eyes in the sky.
Angel Jose if you do fall for this plane, I recommend starting with a umx. It is much harder than it seems. A bit underpowered
@@modelrc9500 whats a umx?
the beerhunter basically a smaller version of a plane. They’re much cheaper and better to start with. That is my opinion though...
I raced RC cars for years had a team losing gas truck had a axis super buggy awd 1/8 scale had a few in .y days mostly gas ones
Yeah. Finally a airplane. Great review. Beautiful finish on the plane. Great plane for anyone to fly. Great job chasing Abby. More planes please! Love your videos. Can't wait for the next rcsfest. Maybe do a fall version also!,,l. Next year after the baby is here. Keep em coming guys
I like that the video has a more informative linear tone, not so much happy happy wonderful rc life joy.Horizon hit gold with this plane!
Nice having the wife involved. Our old club back in the mid 90's had a lot of ladies come out for the Sunday fly. We'd do a cover dish a couple of times a year and it really gave the wives a chance to connect and have a great time. I know the majority of women aren't exactly in to such a hobby, but coming along and supporting/assisting the husband was a great thing. Seemed most of the marriages were pretty strong and the couples genuinely enjoyed time together.
I've learned to fly on an older version of the Super Cub about 7 years ago, this looks even more fun. So to all new R/C pilots enjoy the hobby and have fun! 😎
That was cool. I've never flown rc planes but l love to watch people fly them. Great video😎
Thank you Ray 😁👍⚓😎
Your couple is the best. May God bless you
Thank you :-)
I discovered that the Hobby Star 3700mAh battery from RC Juice fits in the battery compartment with room for a LiPo alarm. The plane handles the extra weight easily and gives 28 to 32 minute flight times. Perfect for windy days!
I just saw the second auto landing!!! Soooooooooo close!!! What a save!! Awesome 👏🏼
best newby plane i have seen and best how to vid ever,well done
I built several balsa wood planes years ago and never had a successful flight. This plane and package excite me to try it again. THANKS.
Great save...
I like this plane.
Great chase drone footage ,
You guys are making Super videos. , they just keep getting better..
😀👍
Great video guys,love ur honesty...
Very cool review, the chase camera rocked. Good piloting skills from both of you. It also looks like you both had fun, if you do something that is fun it isn’t work.
That is an Awesome plane, I really need to buy it, totally cool. I dig the GPS flying, and non GPS.. I appreciate this video!!! I have been watching a lot of your videos,, Keep them coming!!!
Especially the F36, love the carbon cub also. :)
You just can't beat the F36 for the money :-)
I used to fly a privately owned Cessna 140 then a 152...now no flying! Pouted for a few years and decided to do flight simulation which is fun but this...WOW great idea! Thank you for this demo and you and Abby have a new subscriber.
Thank you guys! You just sold me! This will be my second airplane, but the first one Ill fly! I bought the Timber X because I thought I could go right from drones to fixed wing, well needless to say I was wrong! Ive done a bunch of ground work with the TimberX, and some little skip flights, but I realized pretty quick that I needed this airplane. Great video guys, and the drone footage? Awesome!
Perfect I been looking for a plane to get into the hobby, and you got a sub, off my simple search of good rc plane for beginners.
Excellent ! Great watching !! . peace
Bought the RF8 SIM from Horizon Hobby, and practiced for a month with this exact plane on the SIM! After that i was able to fly this, my first real plane, in intermediate mode with GPS off fairly confidently without incident.
Hello from Ann Arbor, Mi.... I just subscribe to your channel and love and so wanted to get a plane but never done it. We had a huge one when I was a kid back in the 80’s. I am so picking this up at our hobby house!!! I love your channel and video & content you guys do. Thank you so much and God Bless guys!
Bought this plane and was so excited to get it up in the air. Put it together, charged the pack, and did all of the proper pre-flight calibration per the manual. Takeoff was super easy. Did 5 minutes of pattern work and then lined up to bring it in for a landing. At about 15ft off the ground on final it inexplicably went to full throttle and climbed above 50ft before I regained control. Three attempts and all three times it would go to full throttle. Eventually while trying to get the damn thing down on the ground it accelerated right into my well water tank. Horizon was less than helpful and basically told me I was out of luck.
The lesson for me was that all of the “helper” systems are just too much to go wrong. The plane was badly damaged and if I ever take the time to try and get it airborne again I’m ripping out the GPS module. It was a bad experience that basically turned me off of the hobby.
Impressed I am! ;) great demo you guys!
great everything thank you very informative an detailed. the kids an i love watching. been wanting to get this carbon cub.....little by little the wife watches with us an was sparked an intrest shhhhhaaaooooOo sees abbey an you having fun an wants to fly planes now. keep the videos coming an have fun flying.
I am planning to get this plane next summer. Just bought my first boat ft012 for autumn winter spring (it rains all the time in Scotland)
Wow, that wing flaps was kinda heart warming :D
Abd as you said "Hey, buddy, you have control now :DD"
Oh lovely air to air work and what a great aircraft over the real things and this looks so close thanks for showing stay safe see ya
Thank you so much Bene! It's great to hear from you :)
Awesome video guys. Great drone footage!!! So tempted to get this. Now, Just need a place to fly it....hmmmm
An exceptionally well produced video - so thanks to you both. I really love this aeroplane and so want one.
Amazing video again guys ,you are the best
Thank you so much :-)
Great video, so helpful, thanks much for your efforts.
Oh dang this really looks like a good plane to get started with. I have a Vapor, but it is an inside flyer and broke already (ugh). I think it might need a RunCam split to provide both FPV and HD video.
Just got the small s 2 been flying it like crazy this one looks awesome
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing 👍
Well done both of you.....thanks for showing.
Thanks so much for this video. I’ve been looking to find my first rc plane. I’ve found it!
Fantastic video! Congrats!
I am looking for my next step up from my Horizon Hobby Duet RC and was considering this plane and after watching this video, I am going out and buying this plane. Just an excellent video guys. Cool shooting the video from the drone.
Thanks a lot Larry! That really means the world to us, and we're sure you're going to love flying it! If you do, consider doing us a favor. If your flights go well and you end up loving the plane like we know you will, please stop by Horizon Hobby's facebook page and let them know we recommended the plane and that you're enjoying it :-) Happy Flying my friend!
Very nice plane!! Great video guys. Yes Nate loved this one :)
Really enjoyed the drone views. Good job not letting that building wreck your new plane.
Keep the the plane vids coming!!!!! They’re better than drones and ground vehicles
Great video,enjoy the air shots,makes you feel like you are one with the plane.:}
excellent video love the quad chasing it!
What a cool idea for starting out flying planes. Im impressed.
I love you guy's videos. I just ordered this plane. I have tried several times to learn to fly R/C planes, and have crashed and destroyed every one. I finally gave up. Now that you can get these GPS planes that are virtually crash proof, I'm going to try it again. Until I became disabled, I was a licensed private pilot, and found it much easier to fly a real aircraft than an R/C aircraft. I think most of that has to do with the fact that you are always facing forward in a real aircraft and know which direction is which. With R/C, you have to operate the controls backwards if the plane is flying toward you. Now if someone would come up with a P-51 Mustang that was this easy to fly.
NATE AND ABBY YOUR SUCH AN INSPIRATION AND I HOPE IU GUYS LIVE LONG AND HAPPY BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE PERFECT
