What is safe technology in RC planes?

SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology is a revolutionary electronic flight envelope protection system. It also offers smoother flight capability that battles windy conditions for you and multiple modes so you can fly with the level of protection and assistance that suits any given moment of the flight.

How long can a RC glider stay in the air?

Electric RC aircraft are not known for long flight times, with multirotors usually doing 20-45 minutes, while most fixed wings will struggle to get past two hours. [Matthew Heiskell] blew these numbers out of the water with a 10 hour 45 minute flight with an RC plane on battery power.

1 per 50,000 flight hours, which makes soaring per activity hour about 2x as dangerous as riding a motorcycle, 25x as dangerous as cycling, 40x as dangerous as driving a car, and almost 200x as dangerous as traveling on a commercial airline flight.

Which Spektrum transmitters have safe?

Spektrum AS3X® technology is a part of the groundbreaking SAFE® assisted flight envelope protection system found in many Ready-to-Fly and Bind-n-Fly® airplanes and helicopters offered from Horizon Hobby brands such as HobbyZone®, E-flite® and Blade®. Every SAFE system has AS3X technology at its heart.
