- The best first EDF on the planet? In Model AV8R episode 146, we feature the E-Flite Habu SS 70mm in our Quick Look/Fun Flight series. This is an excellent first ever EDF for an aspiring jet jock. Simple, reliable, and easy to fly...it inspires confidence and builds skill. However, when it is "turned up," it is as capable as most other 70mm sport jets while giving you a flight time no other EDF we have ever flown can compete with. Is it truly the best first EDF on the planet? Well, that is of course a matter of opinion, but it gets our vote. Check out this episode and see why!

That's such a great flying airframe. You could actually get started with this jet and probably succeed too.
It is, some could for sure.
Hello, "Model AV8R"! Thank you for showing us such a great video! I feel very happy! I'm looking forward to your next work! Have a nice day!
Thank you very much! You too!
It's a great sport jet for sure 👍
Habu is an excellent plane as you have demonstrated.
It is Ruby!
Top of the class pilot & camera girl. Always look forward to the special flight offerings from the AV8R team.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟ps . Love the hat!!
I rock that hat don't I...lol.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Epic flying as usual Adam, always a pleasure to watch. Fun bird as well. 🫡
Thanks Chris, it is a really versatile jet.
What a joy to watch! The gliding half an inch off the ground (15:45) and so stable - that was a magic moment! 🪄😁 Great presentation as always, Adam and Heidi!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thats an impressive plane Adam. You're right, its a perfect fun EDF for all pilots... Eflite did a nice job on this one..
They did man. So much better than I thought it would be!
Good demo of how to turn & burn with the Habu! So zippy - that it looked like Heidi had a challenge keeping up with it some of the time. Well done!
Thanks! It was a surprisingly capable jet...and very easy to fly all things considered. Heidi was on thankfully...lol.
Great flight times for this one. Good stuff Adam 👍👍
Yes sir, thanks man!
I enjoyed watching those flights , I had never considered removing gear , I had 1 , flew it for some time , sold it to another beginner pilot
Great low stress entry level jet.
Great flying!
Thanks! Great airplane...
Very nice handling plane !!!
It is! Very light...
What a fab EDF Jet Adam, I will have to think about getting one!! Great review both 😀👍
Great flyer Ian, you'd enjoy it I think. Thanks!
A want to see a UMX 30mm Habu. Habu's rock!
Yes and yes!
That's what I'm hoping for, they already have the 30mm 4S power system in the F-86!
Hello Heidi and Adam, very nice display of the Habu SS capabilities. The fact that with no flaps servos and gear remove the wing loading is light. Your video showing how much you were enjoying the aircraft. Cheers!
Thanks Rommel! Surprised me just how good it is!
I had this bird until I crashed it in low light conditions (lost orientation). Really glides and great intro to EDFs. Retracts would have made it perfect. I ran it on 6s 4000 at one point. Did make it heavy and need a lot of runway for glide path approach (use reverse thrust is essential to stop it once on the ground). Flaps would have been preferable. All in all it’s a really good jet but absence of landing gear, flaps and LEDs meant I felt like the FMS Viper 70 is better VFM
Sold mine a while ago due to hot landings & i missed having flaps.
I get why a lot of folks want all the bells and whistles, but the absence of them on this one is exactly the point of it. Its much less expensive, has less to "break" on bad landings, and less to manage for a more timid first time EDF pilot...yet plenty of capability to teach them more advanced aerobatics later. There are plenty full featured, more expensive EDF's that could make a good first one for more confident pilots with a bigger budget.
Adam great review and video. Sometimes simple a simple grab and fly edf is best Zoom Zoom Zoom Jeff in LA USA
Absolutely!
Looks really nice with manners and ability. Even though I mainly use Crossfire and ELRS on my better models, if I was buying this, I'd absolutely use the BNF because that nonchalant hand launch was epic! I'd never be flying it gear on so the hand launch aspect is vital to me. My only EDF atm is a HK Stinger 64 which tries to kill itself on hand launches but looks stupid and rolls forever on its gear. I almost never fly it and any replacement has to be significantly better.
You'd enjoy this. So capable but really easy to fly. You're right, the hand launches are a breeze.
Very ably demonstrated, Adam. Is the Habu the EDF Timber?? 🤔😃
Thanks Gina! Hmm...could be...
This will probably be on my short list, when I get the EDF bug. But, if wearing a "sexy hat", like yours, is a requirement for flying EDF's, I might just stick with the 1.2m Eflite warbirds for a little bit longer. No offense 😊 👍
Al not everybody can rock a sexy hat like that. I'm special...at least that is what my mamma said. She was kinda sarcastic though...so she may have been kidding.
@@ModelAV8RChannel
You and I had similar Mommas, then 😂
BTW- Heidi deserves another Atta-gurl for keeping this one in frame and in focus- not to mention what she puts up with from the likes of you 👍
Ha! Awesome, thats why we're such cool dudes right? LOL...yes. Yes she does...
Hi Adam I started with the 50mm habu and moved to the 70mm had many flights on it fun edf, Did you pay Heidi extra for chasing that jet around lol😊 good video you can't go wrong with this edf 😀👍👍👍👍
You really can't Frank. Habu's are hard to beat in that regard.
2 handed launch 😆😆
Yep, you can do that if you launch in SAFE, lol.
Hey adam ! Please tell me you know something about a new eflite f-15 or 18 😂
Not yet!
