RC SUPERSTORE EXCLUSIVE OFFER - FREE SECOND BATTERY!This is the Hobbyzone Sportsman S+ Bind-N-Fly RC Airplane with SAFE Plus and Auto-Landing technology. Take to the skies without hesitation and teach yourself to fly with the HobbyZone Sportsman S+. The Sportsman S+ comes ready to bind with any full-range Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX transmitter and comes with SAFE Plus technology installed.
Landing has always been one of the biggest concerns for new pilots, but
not anymore. Designed to be as intuitive as possible, the HobbyZone
Sportsman S+ comes loaded with SAFE Plus technology which is equipped
with advanced attitude awareness and a GPS system so pilots can leave
their hesitancy on the runway, even if its their first time flying.
Like the beautiful full-scale Glasair Sportsman, the Sportsman S+ is a
natural in the sky with the freedom of four-channel control and a
powerful brushless motor that comes pre-installed. If a pilot is
skittish about the landing, no problem. In the right conditions, the
Sportsman S+ will perform the landing with no help from the pilot.

Features Included with the HobbyZone Sportsman S+ AutoLand- When activated, Autoland returns the Sportsman S+ safely to the ground with little to no pilot input. When flying in rougher conditions, you can provide some directional guidance and let the system do the rest to execute a safe landing.
Holding Pattern- Push a button, and the Sportsman S+ will automatically fly to a point near its takeoff location and circle at an altitude of approximately 120 feet. Once the command is cancelled, you have full control of the aircraft and can continue to fly.
Virtual Fence- You can choose between a circular setting with 360-degree fence or a rectangular setting with a fence that prevents the Sportsman S+ from flying behind you. Both fences will prevent the aircraft from flying too far away. When the Sportsman S+ encounters the Virtual Fence boundary, the control system will automatically activate Holding Pattern and return the aircraft to near its takeoff location and circle until you cancel the command.
Panic Recovery- If you ever lose control of the Sportsman S+, just switch to beginner mode and release the control sticks. SAFE Plus technology will return the aircraft to level flight.
Flight Envelope Protection- Pitch and roll limits protect the Sportsman S+ from entering into extreme flight conditions.
AS3X- Works to stabilize the Sportsman S+ in whatever attitude you command with the sophistication of 3-axis gyros to help battle the influence of turbulence on windy days.
