Based on one of the very best platforms ever designed for learning to fly radio controlled (RC) airplanes, its large size and 1.5 meter (59.0 inch) wingspan offers better visibility and the ability to handle more wind while learning to fly at an RC club flying field. Its inherently stable design plus SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology featuring Beginner, Intermediate and Experienced flight modes makes it easy to fly successfully, especially with the help of an instructor. The addition of exclusive Spektrum Smart components including a Smart ESC make it more convenient to monitor performance in real time (battery and charger sold separately for the BNF Basic version). And best of all it now has the option to upgrade to SAFE Plus GPS-enabled technology that offers features such as AutoLand and Virtual Fence, plus the option to install the Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) that automatically “flares” for smoother landings, to make learning to fly — and to land safely — easier than ever!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA BNF Basic version is available for experienced pilots and clubs that want to use their favorite Spektrum transmitter along with batteries and chargers they may already own. The powerful and efficient brushless power system including a Smart ESC, plus the flight controller, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd the fun doesn’t stop after you learn how to fly! In the Experienced Mode, the Apprentice STS 1.5m is capable of performing aerobatic maneuvers including loops, rolls, inverted flight and more. The Apprentice STS 1.5m is the smartest and best club trainer ever — perfect for first-time pilots, experienced pilots that teach others to fly, and club training programs alike. It’s also the best choice for new pilots seeking a larger trainer that makes it easier to progress into more advanced RC airplanes!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSAFE Technology Flight Modes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeginner Mode:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pitch and bank angle limits prevent over-control and crashes.
