From on the deck high-speed passes to horizon-to-horizon slow rolls, the Habu is a true sport jet in every
sense. Optimized airframe for both high speed precision and amazing low-speed stability, the Habu does it
all. With the functional rudder, outside snaps, spins and extended knife edge are all possible. With optional
landing gear, the Habu can perform smooth takeoffs, touch and goes and picture perfect nose high
landings. Remove the landing gear and hand launch for all out speed and performance.
Your Habu already has the 3-wire servos, an E-flite
® Delta-V ™ 15 fan, 3200Kv six-pole inrunner brushless
motor, and an E-flite 60A brushless ESC installed. The Bind-N-Fly version also includes a 4-cell 3200mAh
Li-Po battery pack, 3- to 4-cell balancing Li-Po Charger, and a Spektrum DSM2 full range AR500 receiver
installed. The Plug-N-Play ® version requires a 3200-3300mAh 4-cell Li-Po, charger, transmitter and receiver.
The decals have already been applied, as well. In as little as an hour, you can be ready for
your first flight with the Habu. This means you can spend your time refining your flying skills, not your
building skills.
Warning: Although your ParkZone ® Habu comes almost ready to fly, this aircraft is for experienced RC
pilots only and is not a toy. Misuse of the plane can cause serious bodily harm and damage
to property. Therefore, only an experienced RC pilot should fly it. Because of the high
performance nature of the Habu, we recommend you only fly in very large open areas or RC
club fields.
Note: A full range 4-channel or greater transmitter (SPMR5500, SPMR6600 or SPMR7700) for the Habu
BNF and PNP, receiver (SPMAR500 or SPMAR6200), battery and charger are required for the
Habu PNP.
