Spektrum AS3X for Newbies!

Spektrum AS3X for Newbies!

The Horizon Hobby/Spektrum AS3X for Newbies video discusses the unique Spektrum AS3X stabilization system for RC planes. In addition, I'll discuss the SAFE select system that builds on AS3X and provides autopilot flying functions for your RC model airplane.

AS3X stand for Artificial Stabilization 3 axis. AS3X uses advanced sensors and software to instantly detect aircraft movement in the sky due to turbulence, wing tip stall, torque, etc. and provide instant control surface correction. The effect is a smoother and more "locked in" flight control feeling, allowing for a more natural a connected flight experience.

I will demo how AS3X works on an E-flite Pitts RTF micro model.

Horizon Hobby planes use AS3X, along with other brands under the Horizon Hobby logo. Key item is to see AS3X on the RTF RC planes box or receiver.

AS3X comes ready to use for a RTF airplane. With an "open stock" receiver, the AS3X system needs to be activated and set. This can be done with a smart phone and bluetooth technology.

SAFE technology is an autopilot assist for an AS3X model. There are various modes of SAFE to include "panic" recovery, GPS fencing, loiter and autoland.
