Why is the flight time too short on my Horizon Hobby E-Flite HABU STS?
If the flight time of your Horizon Hobby Toy is too short, there are several potential causes. Ensure the battery is fully charged by recharging it. Avoid flying at full throttle for the entire flight; fly at just above half throttle to extend flying time. Also, consider the wind speed; it might be too fast for safe flight, so fly on a calmer day. Finally, inspect the rotor for damage and replace it if necessary.
Why is my Horizon Hobby E-Flite HABU STS Toy aircraft difficult to control?
If your Horizon Hobby Toy aircraft is difficult to control, it could be due to several factors. A wing or tail may be damaged and need replacement. A damaged rotor also affects control, so land immediately and replace it. Another cause might be the center of gravity being behind the recommended location; shift the battery forward and do not fly until the correct center of gravity is achieved.
Why does my Horizon Hobby E-Flite HABU STS aircraft keep turning in one direction?
If your Horizon Hobby Toy aircraft keeps turning in one direction, it may be due to incorrect rudder or aileron adjustments. Adjust the stick trims. Then, land the aircraft and manually adjust the aileron and/or rudder linkages to eliminate the need for transmitter trim.
How to fix a Horizon Hobby E-Flite HABU STS Toy aircraft that will not bind to the transmitter?
If your Horizon Hobby Toy aircraft will not bind to the transmitter, several factors could be the cause. First, the transmitter might be too close to the aircraft during the binding process; move the powered transmitter a few feet away, then disconnect and reconnect the battery to the aircraft. Another cause could be interference from a large metal object, wireless source, or another transmitter nearby; move the aircraft and transmitter to another location and try binding again. Lastly, ensure that both the flight battery and transmitter battery have sufficient charge; replace or recharge them if necessary.
