This is the HobbyZone Sportsman S+ Bind N Fly Electric Airplane. Take to the skies without hesitation and teach yourself to fly with the HobbyZone® Sportsman® S+. Designed to be as intuitive as possible, the Sportsman® S+ comes loaded with SAFE Plus technology that makes it easy for nearly anyone to take the control sticks and learn to fly. SAFE® Plus technology uses advanced attitude awareness and GPS sensors so pilots can leave their hesitancy on the runway even if it’s their first time flying. Landing is easy thanks to AutoLand technology and Panic Recovery Mode greatly reduces the risk of a crash. The combination of Virtual Fence and Holding Pattern also work to keep the aircraft within a comfortable range.
No matter which flight mode you fly with you’ll always have the freedom of four-channel controls and a powerful factory installed brushless motor.
