Overview: E-flite Habu SS (Super Sport) 50mm EDF Jet BNF Basic with AS3X+ and SAFE Select

The E-flite Habu SS 50mm EDF is based on the legendary Habu, one of the best high-performance EDF sport jet platforms ever designed. This version is the most affordable and convenient yet, scaled down from the popular Habu STS (Smart Trainer with SAFE) and SS (Super Sport) 70mm EDFs.

  • Spektrum Avian 30-amp Smart Lite ESC
  • Four factory-installed servos
  • Upgraded AR631+ receiver for real-time telemetry, AS3X+, SAFE Select, and Smart Transmitter File (STF) technologies.

• Functional and enlarged rudder for added control and aerobatics.
• Wide-stance tricycle landing gear with a steerable nose wheel for excellent ground handling.

Power System Highlights:

• A 12-blade 50mm fan powered by a high-power brushless outrunner motor.
• Smart and non-Smart battery compatibility for real-time telemetry, including motor RPM, current, and battery voltage.
• Battery options:
