The Aerobird
Challenger was created for the express purpose of giving experienced
Hobbyzone pilots, or any one who flies R/C, a ready-to-fly
experience unlike any other. It's powerful motor, proportional
3-channel control system and big, highly effective control surfaces
will have you flying circles around most any ready-to-fly right out
of the box. Loops, stall turns, whip stalls - the Aerobird
Challenger can do it all.
As with all Hobbyzone airplanes, the
Aerobird Challenger can be assembled and flying in under 15 minutes.
Everything needed to get flying is in one box, including a 3-channel
transmitter, rechargeable battery pack, variable rate DC peak
detection charger with an auto-plug adapter and an easy-to-follow
manual and instruction video CD. Hobbyzone even includes the 8 "AA"
batteries needed for the transmitter. There is literally nothing
else to buy.

The Aerobird
Challenger’s Multi-Mode flight control software gives you two
ways to fly. You can get the feel for the Aerobird Challenger
using smooth, stable Sport Mode that combines Hobbyzone’s Flight
Trak control system with the added function of pitch. Once
you’ve mastered Sport Mode, you can unlock Pro Mode for extreme
V-tail maneuverability that’s perfect for aerobatics or aerial
combat. |
The Sonic
Combat Module (sold separately) emits a sonic "blast" with an
effective range of up to 80 feet. To score a hit, get within 80
feet of another SCM equipped Hobbyzone plane, lock onto their
tail, and fire. When hit, the victim's Sonic Combat Module will
emit a high-pitched tone and disable their motor for 10 seconds.
During this time they will still have directional control so
they can maneuver into position for a counter attack or make a
safe landing. |
Challenge
friends to target practice or see who can get the longest
parachute hang time with the Aerial Drop Module. The ADM (sold
separately) uses an innovative electro-magnetic release
mechanism that lets X-Port-equipped Hobbyzone airplanes drop a
streamer bomb or parachute, both of which are included. |
