E-flite Habu XS 80mm EDF RC Airplane Introduction
Inspired by one of the highest-performance EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) sport jet models ever designed – the iconic Habu 32x – the E-flite®: Habu XS (eXtra Sport) 80mm EDF also features swept-back wing and stabilizer trailing edges to enhance the appearance and performance. The overall design, including the wing featuring leading edge extensions, was scaled up from the extremely popular Habu SS (Super Sport) 50mm and 70mm models to deliver incredible low-speed handling characteristics that make it easier to fly at slower speeds and to land. This makes it one of the best first-ever full-house jet models for low-time EDF pilots and one of the best-ever everyday sport jets for experienced pilots! Both versions are equipped with LED lights, shock-absorbing struts, and a power system that’s compatible with popular 6S 4000–7000mAh batteries and features a Spektrum Avian 130-amp Smart ESC with optional-use motor/thrust reversing. The BNF Basic version also includes a factory-installed AR637TA+ receiver that delivers real-time telemetry data along with the benefits of exclusive and expertly-tuned AS3X+ and SAFE Select technologies to make it quicker to get in the air – plus easier and more enjoyable to fly than other similar class models!
E-flite Habu XS 80mm EDF RC Airplane Overview
Based on the legendary Habu design, the E-flite®: Habu XS (eXtra Sport) 80mm EDF is a more powerful and capable full-house version of the popular Habu SS (Super Sport) 50mm and 70mm models. It has an extremely wide flight envelope that combines incredible low and high-speed performance plus aerobatic capability, making it an excellent choice for experienced and low-time jet pilots. At its core is a 6S compatible Spektrum brushless motor and AvianT 130-amp Smart ESC matched to a 12-blade fan that works with the expertly engineered and optimized ducting to deliver an abundance of speed, thrust, and a turbine-like sound – without the need for cheater holes. It’s capable of level flight top speeds up to 120 MPH and has impressive vertical performance. Plus, it can fit batteries from 4000mAh up to 7000mAh to deliver class-leading flight times.
No glue is required for assembly, and the factory-finished one-piece wing, separate one-piece stabilizers, and fuselage bolt together so the Habu XS can be ready to fly in almost no time. The lightweight, composite-reinforced EPO airframe is factory-finished in a premium, fully painted trim scheme, while the plastic-capped hatch edges and opening improve durability to prevent damage and paint chipping when installing/removing batteries. Eight factory-installed digital, metal-geared servos with ball-link equipped linkages, plus control surfaces with unique captured rod hinges, deliver crisp and precise control at every speed. Functional features include LED landing and navigation lights, extremely effective flaps, and electric retracts with shock-absorbing, trailing-link struts on the nose and main gear so you can easily fly from grass and other surfaces.
Both versions include the factory-installed power system and servos. The BNF®: Basic version also has a factory-installed Spektrum AR637TA+ receiver featuring enhanced AS3X+®: and optional-use SAFE®: Select technologies. When using compatible AirWare®:-equipped transmitters, the receiver and Smart ESC supply overall battery voltage, current draw, motor RPM, and other telemetry data in real-time - with both Smart and non-Smart batteries. With a 7–8+ channel transmitter, you can also utilize the optional-use motor/thrust reversing to shorten rollouts after landing and for other unique ground handling capabilities. It all adds up to deliver a full-house and high-performance EDF jet experience unlike any other for low-time to experienced jet pilots!

Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage
Already own a SpektrumT transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly!
This Bind-N-Fly Basic model is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSMX¬ receiver featuring AS3X+ (Artificial Stabilization-3-aXis+) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence. The result is a heightened sense of stability and precision that makes you feel like you're flying a much larger, expertly tuned aircraft.
If this is your first model of its type, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the airplane, you can enable the optional-use SAFE¬ Select flight envelope protection technology built into the receiver. No programming is required. Simply change up the binding sequence as directed in the manual.
With SAFE Select enabled, you get:
Pitch and Bank Angle Limits
- These envelope limits keep the airplane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.
Automatic Self-Leveling
- The airplane instantly returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the centre position. It's also helpful for keeping the wings level during takeoffs/launches and landings.
Easy Switch Assignment-No Complex Programming Required
- The simple procedure for assigning a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any complex programming and takes just a few seconds.
If you don't want to enable the SAFE Select features, just bind the receiver normally and it will function like a standard AS3X+ receiver.
