Sir! I call you that because you are a knight in my eyes. There are so many habu vids out there but none of them show a landing approach. My habu has been hanging from my wall for a long time as I didn't have the guts to fly it. First flight tomorrow.
just waiting batteries from hk and i will be ready to fly with this sweet jet, thanks for this landing lesson man, it's very funny how you say "kill the throttle"
EXCELLANT video!! Best I've seeen. More please!! I am a beginner and you take time to explane the whole landing process. How about take offs, rolls, whatever?
Mr victor i want to thank you for showing me how to land the habu. This is the first edf jet i have ever tried to fly!I have flown nitro airplanes for 30yrs.I bought a plug n play habu and used the 4s 3200 mah 30c e-flite lipo.Used my jr x9503 tx with hobbyking 6cn orange rx and satelite.The airplane took off from a baseball diamond in3 seconds of wot rolling.After 3min of flying i used your method for landing! The outcome was like you said!
Good video. I've noticed the excellent slow flight characteristics in the RealFlight simulator. Looks like the simulator is an accurate representation of the actual Habu.
@theantiredneck Landing vid is very helpful hope all Habu owners see this to aviod what I did to mine b4 I got a new airframe my vid is habu wreck this vid can save the owners a 100 bucks 4 a airframe swap for landing jet just right and most edfs fall under this vid strategy 2 ,thanks 4 the vid LTR
What size 5S pack do you use?? And how long are your average mixed throttle flight times with 5s pack?? And lastly what speed control?? The Castle 75???
People in my area afraid to fly the Habu, they shouldn't be, it's one of the best and most unique RC flying planes I've owned!!!
Totally in love with this plane. Low high speed passes make the hairs on back of my neck stand up. :-) speed range truly amazing!! Power off glide fantastic!!!
@Airman749 I haven't tried hand-launching it yet, though I'm aware taking the wheels off gives you 10-15mph faster top speed. I upgraded the speed control and use 5S for an additional 10-15mph.
Thank you, bastian74! One of the best Habu Videos here! I´m very sad, the Habu will not longer
be produced. I don´t understabd it. It was the best EDF- Jet for such a low price!

@nummer1kirk I don't see that the PNP version is Discontinued at ParkZone's website, though the BNF version is.

Great instructions!!! Love your accent!!
Just got my Habu have 5 flights so far.
Was surprised by how stable and easy it is to fly. Still havnt got landings dialed in yet, so your instructions extremely helpful, thanks!!
I fly mine without wheels as I don't have access to a big beautiful runway like you.
Still havnt quite figured out best way to handlaunch ( from front or back??)
