Congratulations on choosing the E-flite
®
Apprentice
®
S 15e airplane. Within
your grasp is the most intelligent RC airplane ever offered by Horizon
Hobby. Based on the renowned original Apprentice model, at its heart is
groundbreaking SAFE™ (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that
makes learning to fly RC easier than ever and more fun for the experienced
pilot too. That’s because SAFE technology makes the complexity of model
aircraft spatial awareness possible so that you get the innovative benefit of
flight envelope protection, smooth flight performance and more.
Multiple levels of flight envelope protection allow you to reduce or remove
assistance features from the transmitter instantly so your skills can progress
more quickly. In addition, a “panic” feature is always ready to instantly return
your model to level flight if you ever loose orientation.
Patented Z-Foam™ construction of the Apprentice S offers durability beyond
comparison. Spektrum
TM
DSMX
®
radio technology means that you get the
assurance of an interference-free 2.4GHz signal for industry-leading command.
Because great control is more fun with power, count on the installed E-flite
electronics and power system to deliver crisp response of your transmitter
commands, and the performance to make it more fun.
All you have to do next is read and apply the information presented in this
instruction manual. Once you’ve learned the basics of RC flight, feel free to
enjoy this aircraft to learn more advanced maneuvers. You can also consider
flying from a lake or pond by installing the optional Apprentice S Float Set
(EFLA550), available separately.
