Ready To Fly Design comes with Everything you Need to Get Flying
Start your RC flight journey with the ultimate all-in-one trainer package: the HobbyZone Apprentice STOL S 700mm RTF (Ready-To-Fly). This ultra-micro model combines the proven Apprentice design with impressive STOL (Short Take Off and Landing) capabilities, making it easy and fun to learn to fly in smaller spaces like large yards and parks. As an RTF version, it includes everything you need in one box: the aircraft, a Spektrum SLT6 transmitter, a 2S 300mAh LiPo battery, and a convenient USB-C charger.
The aircraft itself is packed with features to ensure success. Exclusive SAFE technology provides Beginner, Intermediate, and Experienced flight modes, allowing you to learn and progress at your own pace. Its powerful brushless motor and oversized tyres enable it to take off from various surfaces, including grass, and handle light winds up to 8 km/h (5 mph). The durable EPO construction can handle the bumps of the learning process.
To further aid new pilots, this version also includes a trial version of the RealFlight Trainer Edition RC flight simulator, which can be used with the included transmitter. This is the most complete and capable trainer package for anyone dreaming of taking to the skies.
This Ready-To-Fly (RTF) version provides everything you need to get airborne, straight from the box. It includes a controller/transmitter equipped with Spektrumâ„¢ SLT 2.4GHz technology, AA batteries for the transmitter, a rechargeable lithium polymer battery for the aeroplane, and a convenient USB-C charger. There is genuinely nothing extra to buy, so you can focus entirely on the joy of flying.
The Apprentice STOL S 700mm is driven by a factory-installed brushless outrunner motor, designed for performance and efficiency. Compatible with common 2S 300mAh LiPo batteries, this motor provides ample power to fly in winds up to 5 mph, a significant advantage over other ultra-micro and mini-class trainer models, ensuring consistent performance.
The Apprentice STOL S 700mm is equipped with robust landing gear, including oversized tyres and a steerable tailwheel. This setup makes it possible to operate from a variety of surfaces that usually pose a challenge for ultra-micro models, such as grassy parks, gravel paths, and paved areas, significantly expanding your flying opportunities.
Get airborne quickly with the Apprentice STOL S 700mm. It arrives largely factory-assembled, with essential components pre-installed. The only assembly required involves sliding the landing gear into the fuselage and securing the wing with two thumbscrews, a process that needs no glue or tools and gets you flying in minutes after unpacking.
The Apprentice STOL S 700mm is a scaled-down version of the popular Apprentice models, specifically designed to offer impressive STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) capabilities akin to E-flite® Timber® series aircraft. Its ultra-micro size makes it more affordable and convenient, allowing more people to fly in a wider range of locations and smaller spaces, from backyards and parks to sports fields.
The Apprentice STOL S 700mm is engineered for longevity and resilience. Its airframe, made from advanced EPO material, provides a lightweight yet extremely durable build. This robust construction ensures it can withstand regular flying punishment, making it the most durable ultra-micro trainer yet. A full line of replacement parts is also readily available for any needed repairs.
This plane is equipped with exclusive Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select technologies. AS3X works seamlessly to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence, providing a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger aeroplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits along with automatic self-levelling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make it easier to take off, fly, and land!
