E-flite Habu SS (Super Sport) 50mm EDF Jet BNF Basic with AS3X+ and SAFE Select

The legendary Habu platform gets its most capable and accessible makeover yet with the E-flite Habu SS 50mm EDF BNF Basic — an upgraded, refined sport jet that punches well above its size and price point. Built on the same optimized airframe DNA that made the original Habu famous for jaw-dropping low-speed handling, this updated version arrives with a stronger, stiffer composite-reinforced EPO airframe (no cheater holes), an enlarged functional rudder for true aerobatic capability, and a power system now compatible with both 3S and 4S batteries — giving you the flexibility to tune performance to your flying style. Load a 1300mAh 3S for a lighter, nimble setup, step up to an 1800mAh for a well-rounded blend of performance and flight time, or push an 2200mAh 4S pack for maximum thrust and extended sessions. The upgraded Spektrum Avian 30A Smart Lite ESC feeds real-time telemetry data — voltage, current, RPM, and more — directly to compatible Spektrum AirWare transmitters, keeping you informed on every flight.

For pilots ready to make the leap into EDF jet flying, the Habu SS 50mm is genuinely one of the easiest jets ever designed to get airborne and enjoy. The AR631+ receiver brings enhanced AS3X+ stabilization that smooths out wind and turbulence invisibly, while optional SAFE Select flight envelope protection adds pitch and bank angle limits and automatic self-leveling at the flip of a switch — there when you want it, off when you don't. The Smart Transmitter File (STF) downloads all switch assignments, rates, expo, telemetry settings, and voice callouts automatically during binding on NX and iX series transmitters, getting you in the air faster than ever. Wide-stance tricycle landing gear with a steerable nosewheel handles paved, dirt, and short grass runways with ease, or pull the gear entirely for cleaner lines, hand launches, and belly landings on grass. Already own a compatible Spektrum DSMX/DSM2 transmitter? Bind up and fly — it really is that simple.

Skill Level Note: The Habu SS 50mm EDF BNF Basic is a Skill Level 2 aircraft intended for pilots who have successfully flown a trainer model such as the HobbyZone AeroScout 1.1m, Carbon Cub 1.3m, or similar. It is not recommended as a first-ever RC aircraft. New pilots should start with a purpose-built trainer such as the E-flite Habu STS 70mm EDF RTF.
