HobbyZone Champ Anniversary Special Edition 515mm RTF (Ready-to-Fly) with Safe Select, HBZ04900

Your Journey to Flight Begins Here: The Legendary HobbyZone Champ

For over a decade, the HobbyZone® Champ was the aircraft that launched countless dreams, serving as the first step for a generation of new pilots. Now, in a special edition celebrating a legacy of aviation passion, the legend is back and engineered to be the most successful flight training system ever created. This isn't just an R/C airplane; it's your personal flight instructor, ready to turn your aspiration of flight into a reality.

At the heart of this aircraft is Horizon Hobby’s exclusive SAFE® (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology. Think of it as a virtual co-pilot dedicated to your success. In Beginner mode, SAFE limits pitch and bank angles, preventing overcontrol and providing self-leveling stability the moment you release the sticks. This builds confidence and allows you to master the fundamentals at your own pace. When you’re ready, a flip of a switch to Experienced mode grants you full control for aerobatic maneuvers.

This Ready-to-Fly (RTF) package is a complete flight line in a box. The Champ arrives fully assembled, paired with a professional-grade Spektrum™ DSMX® 2.4GHz transmitter—the same secure technology trusted by pilots of far larger aircraft. We’ve included four 1S LiPo batteries and a convenient USB charger to maximize your time in the air. From your pre-flight check to your final landing, everything you need for your maiden flight and beyond is included. Best of all, its ultra-lightweight airframe requires no FAA registration, making your entry into the world of flight completely hassle-free.
