| This plane will make it easier for new pilots to teach
themselves how to fly with a 3-channel system, and then
progress on to other larger and faster RC planes in the
HobbyZone and ParkZone product lines. Additionally, X-Port
technology makes the options for fun endless! With this
plane come many exciting firsts for HobbyZone, which raise the
bar for teach-yourself-to-fly, ready-to-fly RC planes:
A 3-channel radio system in a Zone 1 airplane;
Anti-Crash Technology in a 3-channel airplane;
A 2-piece, mid-set, swept, plug-in wing; and
Rigid, steel wire pushrods to more precisely manipulate
the control surfaces
 | Revolutionary Anti-Crash Technology, exclusive to
HobbyZone, which actively monitors the plane’s orientation,
as it relates to the ground and sky, and cuts the motor, in
tandem with giving neutral steering and up elevator, if the
plane enters a steep dive. This causes the plane to come out
of the dive so the user can regain control. Once pilots gain
experience flying, they can increase maneuverability and
overall control by turning ACT off via the switch on the
transmitter
|
| A 3-channel radio system that makes it easier for pilots
who are new to RC to teach themselves how to fly with a
3-channel airplane, thanks to ACT. Additionally, the third
channel allows for pitch control so that pilots can make
tighter turns and have a wider range of maneuvers, as well
as the option to make pitch trim adjustments while the plane
is in the air
|
| A one-box purchase, which means that everything that’s
needed to get flying comes in the box
|
| A ready-to-fly design that allows users to get in the
air quickly after simply attaching the wing pieces and
landing gear, and installing the rechargeable 7-cell 8.4V
900mAh Ni-MH battery pack
|
| A two-piece, plug-in wing that provides better handling
in the wind, smoother flight, easier transportation, and a
sleek, swept-wing design
|
| X-Port™ technology that allows pilots to use exciting
plug-in accessories, such as the Sonic Combat Module™ to dog
fight with other X-Port-equipped planes, the Aerial Drop
Module™ to drop bombs or a parachutist, or the Night Flight
Module™ to fly at night after they’ve become more
experienced
|
| A powerful 480 motor that permits users to have great
climb rate and power while flying their Firebird Freedom
|
| Durable, steel wire pushrods for more precise and
consistent control
|
| A detailed instruction manual and video CD that instruct
pilots on the proper techniques and steps that need to be
taken to get their Firebird Freedom in the air and flying
safely
|
| A 1.2 amp variable rate DC peak charger, with LED
indicator and trickle charge
|
| A soft, resilient rubber nose that cushions the force of
impact and decreases damage if the pilot has a hard landing |
