Technical Performance
The FMS Easy Trainer V2 Horizontal Stabiliser represents precision engineering applied to RC aircraft components. Manufactured to exact tolerances and specifications by FMS Hobby, this stabiliser is constructed from durable materials selected to provide both structural strength and the correct aerodynamic properties required for stable flight. The 1280mm dimension is carefully calculated to provide the optimal moment arm for pitch control, ensuring responsive yet stable pitch authority that prevents the aircraft from becoming overly sensitive or sluggish in pitch control inputs. The stabiliser works in conjunction with the elevator control surface to manage pitch attitude and maintain level flight, making it essential for safe training flights. The engineering behind this component ensures that replacement parts maintain the same flight characteristics as the original equipment, so your Easy Trainer V2 will continue to perform exactly as designed when you install this genuine FMS part. The stabiliser's design emphasises gentle, forgiving flight behaviour — a critical characteristic that has made the Easy Trainer V2 platform a favourite among flight training schools and individual pilots learning to master RC aircraft control across the UK and worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this the correct replacement stabiliser for my Easy Trainer V2? — Yes, this is the genuine OEM horizontal stabiliser designed specifically for the 1280mm FMS Easy Trainer V2 aircraft. Always verify your aircraft's dimensions before ordering, but if you own a standard Easy Trainer V2, this is the correct part. The model number FMSSQ103-1 is the authorised FMS part number for this component.
- How do I know if my stabiliser needs replacing? — You should replace your horizontal stabiliser if it has become warped, cracked, broken, or visibly damaged, as these conditions will negatively impact your aircraft's pitch stability and flight performance. If your aircraft is exhibiting unusual pitch behaviour, difficulty maintaining level flight, or sluggish pitch response, a damaged stabiliser could be the culprit.
- What is the difference between the horizontal stabiliser and other tail components? — The horizontal stabiliser is the fixed horizontal surface of the tail assembly that provides longitudinal stability; it works with the elevator (the moveable control surface attached to it) to manage pitch control. This is distinct from the vertical stabiliser (rudder assembly) which controls yaw and directional stability.
- Can I install this part myself? — Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC aircraft assembly experience. The stabiliser typically attaches to the fuselage using glue and/or mechanical fasteners depending on your specific airframe design. If you're unsure about installation, many local RC clubs and hobby shops in the UK offer installation support services.
- How long will this stabiliser last? — With proper care and handling, an FMS horizontal stabiliser will last many years and hundreds of flights. Damage typically occurs from crash impacts or rough handling rather than normal wear and tear, so fly carefully and your stabiliser should provide years of reliable service.
- What's included with the stabiliser? — This is the stabiliser component only. Depending on your specific installation needs, you may require adhesive, fasteners, or other mounting hardware, which you may need to source separately.
