Its ultra-micro size makes it perfect for flying in large yards, parks, soccer fields, and other suitable spaces where larger “trainer” models can’t typically be flown successfully by first-time pilots. Plus, it features a “pop off” prop saver design and incredibly tough EPP construction that makes it one of the most durable trainer airplanes yet! Best of all it also features SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology that helps prevent overcontrol, loss of orientation, and crashes so nearly everyone can learn to fly successfully. The 100% factory-assembled airframe is equipped with a reliable electric power system, receiver, and servos. It’s also RTF (Ready-To-Fly) right out of the box including two rechargeable batteries, a charger, and a controller/transmitter so there’s nothing else you need to buy or provide to fly!LEARN TO FLY SUCCESSFULLYWelcome to the exciting world of RC (Radio Controlled) flight! If you’ve ever dreamed of taking to the skies, Horizon Hobby has you covered. We are committed to engineering aircraft that you can learn to fly with successfully even if you’ve never flown RC before. Every HobbyZone® aircraft we offer features industry-leading design and technology developed by experts to keep you in control and learning at your own pace so you can turn your dreams of flight into a reality!The HobbyZone XCub 450mm is a scale replica of the popular XCub by CubCrafters, which is the safest and most extensively tested adventure airplane ever! It’s also an upgraded and modern iteration of the Super Cub and the classic J-3 Cub that came before it – which was one of the most popular trainer aircraft designed before WWII Review: 9/10. Good for slightly experienced pilots. Nice plane. - Great rc plane! 9/10 Overall it’s good. The batteries included work well and have about a 5.5 minute run time before they FAIL. When I say fail I mean almost all power cuts and the plane loses insane altitude. It’s not horrible if you set a timer while flying. Not a con or pro. It flies really well and cruises softly. It can do inverted high Alfa rather well and rolls nicely. Loops need plenty of airspeed prior to rotating. The landing gear is nice AT FIRST. After hard landing and such it bends. Once you rebend the gear back into place enough, it SNAPS. The replacement gear is really cheap though ($4.99). The wheels are nice and fit into the scale. They can land on rough concrete/asphalt, but can’t do grass or gravel. The rudder is dampened once the motor is activated: meaning it has limited range of motion and is slower than the elevator and ailerons. It is nice to do coordinated turns with the rudder. Its durable to a point, and so many crashes and glue repairs, it loses it mobility. It gains weight and feels more sluggish. The ailerons rip off and have to be glued on eventually. I don’t have the correct means of repairing the ailerons, so they are now permanently flaperons. Anyways, very nice airplane, If you nose dive into the ground, do it over sand, thick grass, or anything soft; ANYTHING BUT CONCRETE. I have been lucky. The motor withstood many nosedives into concrete. Eventually it broke. I had spare parts and constructed a new motor. 9/10 Review: Bad unit - This is probably an awesome plane. Unfortunately, the one I received had a faulty aeleron servo which would twitch severely when commanded to move. Credit to desertcart, they refunded me in full. I might try to order another one; we'll see. ## Features - One of the most durable and easiest to fly trainer models yet for beginner RC (Radio Controlled) airplane pilots - 100% complete and ready to fly right out of the box – there’s nothing extra to buy so it’s an incredible value - Equipped with SAFE technology that helps prevent crashes and makes it easy for everyone to learn how to fly - Includes a 5-channel controller/transmitter with 2.4GHz technology and features 4 channels of control for training to full aerobatic flight capability - Ultra-micro sized to fly in large yards, parks, at sports fields and beyond ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DPLHLYWD | | Batteries | 4 AA batteries required.

Unfortunately, the one I received had a faulty aeleron servo which would twitch severely when commanded to move. Credit to Amazon, they refunded me in full. I might try to order another one; we'll see. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall great value! *by S***R on October 27, 2025* Props we received not manufactured sufficient to keep prop on under normal operations. Props snap off too easily. Bought replacements that stay on better. Overall the plane is a good value. Suggest if you are a novice to aviation that you get a mentor, tutor. Learn the essentials of aeronautics and flight dynamics, controls. Keep the power on the lower end and keep the plane in front of you. Work on slow level flight and turns. Power down when going downwind, power through turns. ## Frequently Bought Together - HobbyZone RC Airplane XCub 450mm RTF Everything Needed to Fly is Included HBZ-1250 - Ernst Manufacturing Ultra Stand for Model Airplanes - Durable Aircraft Assembly and Maintenance Work Stand - Fuel-Resistant Plastic, Features Tool Compartments - Blue - Spektrum Smart G2 Powerstage Air Bundle: 3S 2200mAh LiPo Battery / S120 Charger, SPMXPSA200 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/686450799-hobbyzone-rc-airplane-xcub-450mm-rtf-everything-needed-to-fly](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/686450799-hobbyzone-rc-airplane-xcub-450mm-rtf-everything-needed-to-fly) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
