Even if you've never flown a radio controlled (RC) airplane before, the HobbyZone Apprentice S 2 1.2m is designed to make learning to fly with a more "traditional" trainer easy and fun! It's an updated version of one of our best-selling trainer aircraft "â€œ the Mini Apprentice S 1.2m "â€œ and is scaled down from the larger E-flite Apprentice STS 1.5m design so it's more affordable and more convenient to fly at large parks and sports fields in addition to typical RC flying fields. The Apprentice S 2 is equipped with Horizon Hobby's exclusive and innovative SAFE technology, making it possible for almost anyone to learn to fly successfully. Beneath its durable exterior, pilots will find an efficient brushless motor along with a telemetry-capable ESC plus a factory-installed receiver and servos. The wide-stance tricycle landing gear with a steerable nose wheel and oversized tires offers improved ground handling for easier take offs and landings. Optional floats can also be installed for takeoffs from and landings on water!

Welcome to the exciting world of RC (Radio Controlled) flight! Horizon Hobby is committed to engineering aircraft that you can learn to fly with successfully, even if you've never flown RC before. Every HobbyZone aircraft features industry-leading design and technology developed by experts to keep you in control and learning at your own pace so you can turn your dreams of flight into a reality!

The HobbyZone Apprentice S 2 1.2m is the perfect trainer because it makes learning to fly an RC airplane easier and more fun than ever before! Featuring a more "traditional" trainer design, the Apprentice S 2 helps aspiring pilots get flying almost instantly. It includes exclusive SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that helps to prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation, and crashes, allowing nearly everyone to learn to fly successfully. The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basic version includes everything needed to fly in one box except for a battery and charger. This allows you to choose a convenient and money-saving Spektrum Powerstage bundle or the separate battery and charger you prefer!

The powerful and efficient brushless power system including a telemetry-capable ESC, receiver, and servos are all factory-installed in the durable EPO airframe that assembles quickly and easily without the need for glue or special tools. In Experienced Mode, the Apprentice S 2 is capable of performing aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, inverted (upside down) flight, and more. You can even use the same DXS transmitter included with the RTF Basic version along with the same battery and charger to fly a variety of Bind-N-Fly (BNF) and BNF Basic version "Next Step" aircraft following your successful training on the Apprentice S 2.

Additionally, you have the opportunity to purchase the RealFlight Trainer Edition RC Flight Simulator and a Spektrum WS2000 Wireless Simulator Dongle to practice flying this and other models using the transmitter included with the RTF Basic version. The simulator helps new pilots learn to fly successfully by practicing on a PC at home or on a laptop just about anywhere else!
