more, no other trainer offers so much help for the first-time pilot.
In addition to the airplane, radio, and engine, this package also
includes a RealFlight NexSTAR Windows PC disc with transmitter
interface to use with the included Futaba radio allowing the modeler
to practice and perfect their skills without risking the airplane.

Molded Composite Main Wing Rib maintains perfect alignment and
includes a built-in aileron servo mount, wing halves are joined with
a steel rod. Flat bottom high mount configuration One-piece, all
wood precision airfoil with SpinControl Airfoil Extensions that
provide lift even in a stall to keep the NexSTAR level and the pilot
in control. PivotFlex Wing Mounting System fastens with one nylon
bolt, a rubber retainer and pivoting channel absorb minor jolts of
normal use, more severe jolts cause the wing to separate from the
fuselage and escape the full force of impact. Airspeed Restrictor:
SpeedBrakes Training Flaps attach to forward section of wing near
fuselage and hold airspeed to a minimum to insure smooth landings,
removeable as pilot skills increase Covering: Polyester based heat
shrink, color scheme is white and red with silver accents Engine:
Pre-installed O.S. Max .46FXi (7.5cc) with high-speed needle valve
extender/limiter that limits the movement of the high-speed needle
to prevent engine from being run too lean, engine is mounted on
IsoSmooth Mount to isolate airframe and radio gear from damaging
vibration Radio: Futaba 4YBF 4-channel FM radio system with trainer
system and AFS (Active Flight Stabilization) that actively searches
for any signs of instability and takes immediate action to correct
them. This system uses on-board electronic sensors that detect
instability-just release the sticks and AFS does the rest.
Sensitivity is adjustable as pilot gains flight skills. Landing
Gear: Duraluminum SnapGear Quick Landing Gear Mounts lock in place
with a snap and provide the strongest landing gear of any trainer,
also easily removeable Aileron Control: Single standard size servo,
wings are built with dual aileron servo trays for future upgrades as
skills increase, can also be equipped with flaps Tail Mounting:
