I fly with SAFE full time. I love it! I'm slowly converting all my models to SAFE.
So do I since I'm 75, my reflexes are a bit slower. Some of my club members think SAFE is not flying BUT.......I always bring my planes home with me after flying...in one piece !!!!
OK aircraft I would like to see in large-scale is the Pilatus PC-21, I love the T28 Trojan but nothing flies like the Pilatus PC-21. Do it in a 2.1m size with a 5 blade prop and AS3X would be amazing Jason! The aircraft already flies on Rails but Ya'll can make it even better! If anybody here has flown a PC-21 model you know you can agree. :)
Pc-21 is a jet
Pc-12 is a turboprop
I own the 2.0mtr large scale original but, discontinued T28-Trojan and find that they are
Both far and between being similar in flight control and one is a sports aircraft (carbon z V2.0 and the
Other more a scale flyer (Trojan T28).
Let’s do this! Love the gear!!!
Im having problems. The throttle doesnt kick in before almost half stick. So i need to calibrate the ESC. But it wont calibrate. Is this due to the AS3Xa?? Do i need to do it with another receiver??
Great job guys. Love the new plane and color. Jason we need a corsair in this size man Put in a good word for us. Thanks guys keep up the good work.
Love it and it’s large, all I need now is a bigger hangar 👍🏻
great looking fixed wing.....wanted you guys to know that i am very impressed with the cutomer service you have.... i got hold of a defective product and your tech support handled it with professionalism and speed...GOOD JOB!!!!! I had a really bad experience with another company that has now closed its location in California....do i need to mention the name hubsan.... Again great job you earned my business and i will remain loyal.
Thanks guys now I know where to place those two mystery decals
Billy Jack I ihad the same issue, what is it and where to put them. At first I thought it was something as a mesh filter frame for the air intake :-)
These upgrades are legit upgrades. Good job!
Just ordered one yesterday.
My 7 year old granddaughter flies it and loves it. She said if you loosen the wing strut you can get the wing bolt back in......
Questions:
Can I use an APC 15x7 thin electric propeller
?
Any Black Friday sales, such as 5% to 10% off everything, that I can apply to this plane?
Great looking plane, I hope to get one soon. Just a thought, you could very easily improve the assembly of the wing struts. Instead of two awakward pin's on each side, use one twin with a spring clip. Like those old keyring clips. You just push the top to move the side pin in. That would be a pretty simple mod and make it super easy to assemble out of the car, and no tiny clips to loose in the grass.
This is so beautiful, i really love this model 👍
Can you bring back the T-28 Carbon Z 2.1m ? Better than before ? Please! Can not wait to get my Carbon Z Cub back in my Hanger!
I saw one of the T-28s and it is amazing!!!
Great plane, I have had at least 15 good flights on it already, and a few crashes, just glues or use epoxy and figer glass( for the landing gear mount), goes right back together. Only complaint is how the wings keep on separating from the fuselage at the top. Seems like a few more flights and they will just pop out permanently. The thumb screws cannot hold the, anymore. They just keep on moving further and further out of the hole.
A lovely aircraft....reminds me of my Cessna 150 Z. It probably flies similar also!
Reverse thrust also..
Please produce a Cessna 180 skywagon… pretty please!! 🙏 no one makes that plane. It would make a fantastic addition to your bush plane line up! Please look into it🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸 thank you!!
Jason Q: why don't Eflite release more aircraft with authentic see thru cockpits. I understand the strength factor but the designers should be able to overcome this by now...IE: Turbo Timber, this plane, Cessna 150 Z etc. When I buy the Cherokee, Maule, new jets, they look awesome and just give each model that special finish.
I agree with you all the way 100 percent!!!! I still wonder, why????????
Nice looking plane. Needs lights tho.
Please bring back the Mini FuntanaX and Ultimate 10-300. Even in kit form would be great.I loved those balsa birds so much. Alas both of mine have been crashed beyond repair.
Just bought one. I'm afraid that assembling it in my home will lead to a divorce haha!
In my opinion compared to the original version 1 it's technically not even the same aircraft, version 2 is insanely good right out the box, don't even hesitate getting one pilots! Flies on like butter on rails so hard to explain. If that makes any sense? lol.
I love safe mode I have 4 cubs from mini to 1.2 going to Tallahassee tomorrow and order this plane. I also have a mentor and timber.
In my Ford KA I have room for the old cub and this one wich I love
+ a Timber or a Maule M7
No problem 😉
Thanks for great planes guys
Cheers from Denmark Lase
LOL And of course it can be Hovered...........
I have one of the old ones and love it. Will the thumb screws work in mine? Would love to change them out
Good job!
My motor broke in 10 days horizon say 3 bearings??? I opened the motor only 2 bearings inside. So why???
please keep it out for a few more months till my birthday, lol
Be fun to have a giant scale Citabria! I'll have this plane one of these days. Be a fine tow plane?
I hope you bring back Sport Cub had one years ago and had a lot of fun with it.
Nice plane! Thanks for creating this video. Is there any specific type of clear tape recommended that you mention at 17:40?
How nose-heavy should I balance the airplane with the battery
What parts can I retrofit on the mk1 CZ Cub? I have a mk1, that I have never taken out of the box and assembled.
That's huge. Love it😀🇳🇱
That's what she said!...😅😂🤣👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Epsilon xl3!!!!!!
Can I bind my carbon cub 1.3 safe + spectrum remote DXe with this and would I need to assign mode switch or would it work the same without fiddling, regards Tony Australia
The plane is so nice with lots of awesome modifications and upgrades but one thing that i dont understand from you HH Gentlemen is why dont you make the real see through cockpit???? You did it with the Maule which made me broke my promise to myself that I am not buying anymore planes because I was soooo captivated by its looks with a real cockpit. Im really want to hear from you, Gentlemen :-)
Can the new thumbscrews be used on the old model? I wouldn't mind being able to swap out some of the hardware to the tool-less stuff !
Wanting a new transmitter but I'm stuck between the ix12 and nx10 spektrums which would you get? Also seen alot of reviews on radiomaster tx16
NX10 is a bit less complex than iX12 and still has plenty of channels and features that most people will never outgrow! Outside of that, if you prefer a touchscreen and Android interface iX12 is the way to go.
Which transmitter would you recommend for it?
Nice. I’m just starting out with planes , and this just looks beautiful. 😊👍✈️
How do you setup the REVERSE PROP???
Wonder if is flap ready with servos already installed?
stefano ath Yes
lol. poor jason mircel got cut off by codey. lol codey was so wanting to say something lol. nice cutting him off on live ty lol
That's a pretty sweet looking plane 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Trying to find one now. I think anything you guys made around this size would sell great.

@@HorizonHobbyProducts I am in Canada and I may have found one today. :)
Hi, I have this plane, after some QC control issues I have it assembled.
The motor looks like it's pointing to the left, it should be straight or to the right. What are the thoughts behind this? I've asked this on rcgroups and some other have this to.
Can you please help? I'm afraid to fly it. With the maiden it extremely banks to the left. I have the pnp so no as3x problem
Contact HH and ask...
@@ricardopr54 i got a private message on yt that i definitely should not point to the left and should contact horizon tech support.
Sended them all of the pics but they say i need to contact my lhs. Which is closed because of covid..
@@cnnlt200 Send them another email and request a return label so you can send the plane back. That's BS on their part to refer your issue to your Local Hobby Store... If they won't do that and give you a replacement aircraft or refund after returning it, then Sue their asses! This planes aren't cheap and it is disrespectful on their part to do that to their clients...
The albatross and the se5a
Does it still have the optional camera mount to go on it? I don't recall that being mentioned...
Beautiful airplane!
What about overstocking on Parts
I bought one of the first one and I need parts like pushrods parts that just aren't available yet and batteries..........
Can you add a 1.0-1.1 m cub with flaps for intermediate to advanced pilots to the lineup ? Thanks.
We currently offer the HobbyZone Carbon Cub S 2 ( www.horizonhobby.com/search?q=Carbon+Cub+S+2+1.3m&search-button=&lang=default ), which is set up for optional flaps and has a 1.3m span. And although the RTF version is geared toward beginners, the BNF Basic version is perfect for intermediate to advanced pilots! As you can see this video (especially after the 2 minute and 40 second mark), it's capable of aerobatics, float flying and more: czcams.com/video/Wgsq8VQZrG8/video.html
I'm curious if you can make the ESC reversible with a software upgrade.
The Carbon-Z Cub SS 2.1m BNF Basic version will now be available with a Spektrum AR637TA receiver and a Smart Avian 60A ESC! And yes, you can use that receiver and ESC to reverse the motor :) See this new version here: www.horizonhobby.com/product/carbon-z-cub-ss-2.1m-bnf-basic-with-as3x-and-safe-select/EFL124500.html
I bet this will be an amazing stol aircraft. I will haves and put a wood prop on.
Wonder if inhave ix12 set up can be download on the fly.
Would this be a great 2 plane to buy for intermediate pilots?
Skis? Are there any? I live in the great white north. We still fly with snow on the ground up here. 😜
Love the look of this plane and the size seems just right as well. For me the safety tech means one thing. I can fly..hahaha!
just wondering can a camera like a gopro or a FPV camera be mounted? also is there a light kit for it as well?
The reason I ask is I have a 6 yr. old grandson who has gone through two high end RC trucks, 4 boats and 2 planes of varying skill levels from beginner to expert. mastered them all and now he won't go near them because as he put it they bore him. So I'm hoping something like this will respark his interest again. It's either this or I'm gonna have to buy him the real thing..
This plane is for 14 or older rated my friend!... 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Please, please,please,..come out with a giant scale SR71 Blackbird !!!!!
Make setups able to be download for ix12 an eflite app with the set up or spektrum set ups app
In looking at this plane from directly in front, (in the video), it doesn't look like it have any dihedral. does this make it difficult to fly?
Harpoon_Bakery hard compared to what?
@@michaelsell6928 to non-dihedral
This is a very stable plane especially when using AS3x. If you have mastered a high wing trainer with it without dihedral you can handle this.
Dihedral basically gives you some self righting ability. With a flat wing you have to fly the plane and level wings yourself is all.
With safe select activated all you have to do is let go of the sticks and it will level itself out.
should this be my first plane or the carbon cub S? i have only flew the gas powered planes on a string in the early 70's
Ron Elliott no, this is not a first airplane, it could be a second one, but better a third one. Check out the carbon cub RTF or the apprentice/mini apprentice, or the umx champ or cub, but there is a lot more trainer airplanes like the bixler, etc.
You should get an E-flite Apprentice STS as your 1st airplane. The STS is the best beginner RC airplane in the market no doubt about it!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵😷🇵🇷
UK date estimations please? Always planned on getting the G1 but other planes got in the way. Love SAFE btw!
They are expected to arrive in the UK late September. If you haven't pre-ordered one already, we recommend you do so!
Can we retro fit that landing gear to our old CarbonZcubs?
Please Please bring back the CZ T-28 in the yellow scheme .
I am new to the hobby- I am decent with the apprentice but would like something bigger. Could a newbie fly this similar to the apprentice (besides being a tail dragger)?
Very easy to fly. Better in the wind than an apprentice. Tail daggers land easier imo.
Timothy Nettesheim thank you!
If you're practiced with your ground rudder work you will be fine. This plane is very docile and forgiving but does need some rudder work on the ground
Light kit available?
Nop!
Let me rephrase,...80mm twin SR71 Blackbird,...PLEASE,..for the love of God !!!
Hello, I went looking for the new motor to put in my blue carbon z cub. You didn't change the part number. You should be kicked out of the aircraft line. If I go to my local shop they will sell me the old motor. If I call tech support they will sell me the old motor. I did call them and they told me the number had not changed and I had to send them a link to this video.
Please bring back the hinger 9 twin otter(HAN4610)
Great looking plane, I live near water so floats would be amazing for me. Any out there that would fit?
The Carbon-Z Float Set will fit is model as well.
@@HorizonHobbyProducts Thanks so much for the answer. I really like the looks of this plane and I'd love to see it fly from water. All the best.
Hey Horizon, Make A Full Scale de Havilland Fox Moth... And When Is The New DRACO Comin Out? Y'alls Can Send Me One To Tourcher Test & Give An Independant Real Unbiassed Review Ifin You'd Like, Since I'd Really Like That Also!!! LOL Thanks
would this make a good trainer?
We do NOT recommend this model as a trainer! It could be a good second but would be a better third model after learning to fly with something like the HobbyZone Carbon Cub S 2 1.3m ( czcams.com/video/Wgsq8VQZrG8/video.html ) then moving up to the Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5m ( czcams.com/video/qVAveeNrDVY/video.html ).
@@HorizonHobbyProducts thankyou. I was considering the Carbon Cub S2, you helped me make up mind.
A lot or a little is missing ... only the correct measure is acceptable ... wingspan 1300 ... lol ...
T28! Bring it back
Done!... Available now online! 2020👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵😷🇵🇷
Is this a good first plane?
Not in particular. It's a perfect second plane, however. Take a look at the Apprentice STS, the Aeroscout, or the Carbon Cub S+ for a first plane.
HorizonHobbyProducts yes that’s what I bought my daughter but she says it’s a. Little small to see she flys high up and now has been bringing down closer to the ground. She’s only 9 but flys great she started with drones now carbon cub s+ but she keeps saying something bigger would help her see it. So was just curious. We don’t know all the Lingo but she flies with me in both of my real planes and so I think she got the concept very fast she also takes control on my real aircraft once we are up at altitude of corse Im on the other stick but literally she flys great she has only wrecked her RC plane twice and I thought this might be a good step what are your thoughts.
Please bring back the Prometheus 😫😫😫😫👍👍👍👍👍😎
I have the original plane and put 3D printed camera platforms on it that add both FPV and GoPro cameras...my CZcams channel has them being used.
pesky screw
Bring back Radian Pro.
great looking fixed wing.....wanted you guys to know that i am very impressed with the cutomer service you have.... i got hold of a defective product and your tech support handled it with professionalism and speed...GOOD JOB!!!!!
