One of Novak's most popular brushed ESCs, the Rooster, is now available in a Crawler edition. Because crawler vehicles require such precise movement control at low speeds, it only makes sense to use equipment specifically designed for this purpose. Novak is one of the few, if not the only R/C manufacturer, who offers a speed control specifically designed for crawlers. So if crawling is what you like to do, you'll want to take a good look at Novak's Rooster Crawler-Edition.

Besides a different case label, the Rooster Crawler looks the same as the Rooster 12T. Same small footprint, same heat sink assembly, and same 14-gauge power wires on PCB-direct solder tabs for easy soldering. Inside the orange case, however, is where crawler-specific software transforms the Rooster into a Crawler. The special software enables crawler applications to scale, navigate, and conquer the most challenging terrain.

The Rooster Crawler is equipped with an improved 6 volt/ 5 amp BEC that's perfect for super high-torque servos in crawling conditions. Its Zero Reverse Delay allows instant power delivery in both forward and reverse when needed. High-power Drag Brakes provide monster holding power that's especially useful when embarking on a downhill descent. And yes, the Rooster Crawler edition includes the newest must-have
Link feature: built-in Li-Po cut-off protection. This feature monitors the vehicle's Lithium Polymer battery pack's voltage, and prevents the batteries from going below the critical safety voltage level. The driver is cued via throttle blips when the voltage drops to a certain level. After 20 blips it then shuts off, however, full control of the steering servo is left intact. The Li-Po cut-off protection feature can be enabled or disabled via the ESC's two throttle profiles.

Other Rooster Crawler features include a water-resistant case, a user-replaceable input harness, and auxiliary fan connectors. Of course, all the standard features for which Novak is known are also included: One-Touch Set-Up, Radio-Priority Circuitry, Polar Drive Circuitry, and Thermal Overload Protection.

The Rooster Crawler is compatible with single and dual brushed motor crawler applications such as a single Mabuchi 27-turn motor or dual 35 to 55-turn lathe motors.

A ready-to-fly design--just attach the wing, tail and landing gear and install the battery pack
An easy-to-install, one-piece wing that provides incredible handling in the wind and smooth flight

Anybody can have a good time flying the new Super Cub RTF. It comes right out of the box with everything you need included...even batteries for the transmitter. The Super Cub is equipped with 3-channel control that helps provide a true-scale flying experience. Throttle, steering and pitch controls allow you to learn the basics of RC flight, safely and simply, while still having a great time flying. Meanwhile, the instantly recognizable scale Cub design makes you feel as though you're flying a full-size pleasure plane. In addition, the Super Cub comes with all of the features you expect from HobbyZone, including X-Port expandability. Its durable Z-foam construction makes the Super Cub incredibly strong and easy to repair, and its unique trim scheme makes it look great in the sky and in your hands.

The latest breakthrough in RC flight, Anti-Crash Technology(TM) (ACT) makes teaching yourself to fly easier and safer than ever before. With ACT, anyone can fly.

Here's how it works: Two sensors on the Super Cub,one on the top and one on the bottom of the fuselage, monitor the position of the plane in relation to the ground. When the plane is flying level, the top sensor sees the sky, while the bottom sees the ground, and they tell the onboard computer that the plane is flying correctly. If the plane enters a dive and the sensors detect that the plane's orientation is incorrect, the system will automatically correct the control inputs and help prevent the plane from crashing, allowing you time to regain control. ACT lets you fly without worry. And once you've gained experience with your Super Cub, you can turn ACT off for more complete control and increased maneuverability.

You don't need anything to get your Super Cub airborne. Just charge the included battery pack while attach the wing, vertical tail stab and landing gear, and load the AA batteries into the transmitter. Before you know it, you'll be ready to go.

As the most successful fighter of World War II, the P-51D Mustang still thrills thousands of people today in air shows and races around the world. Now park flyer fans can experience Mustang thrills on a smaller scale with this fully aerobatic Charge-and-Fly reproduction from ParkZone. And getting it airborne is about as simple as it gets. Just attach the wing and tail, connect the battery to the charger, and in as little as 40 minutes, you're flying.

Once in the air, you can choose between two flight modes – A or B – with just the flip of a transmitter switch. Mode "A" limits the amount of control surface travel for transitioning pilots so maneuvers are smooth and manageable. Mode "B" grants an experienced pilot maximum control surface movement for high-energy Mustang maneuvers, such as loops, victory rolls, Cuban-8's, and more.

More advanced park flyer pilots will be pleased to know that the Mustang's receiver/ESC module and two servos can be removed and used in other speed 370 or 400-class electric aircraft. That list includes V-tails and delta wings, thanks to selectable control mixing in the receiver. The receiver is also equipped with an X-Port connector, but not an external port, and the speed control’s auto-cutoff can be adjusted to work with 3-cell Li-Po battery packs.

Like all other ParkZone planes, the P-51D has, in one box, everything you need to get flying. Outstanding flight performance and exciting warbird realism await you – with the ParkZone P-51D Mustang, you get it all!

At the heart of this simplicity is HobbyZone’s Anti-Crash Technology system that helps prevent crashes from over-control. If you’ve never flown before, turn the ACT on so the sensors monitor the position of the plane. If the plane enters a dive and the sensors detect that the plane’s orientation is incorrect, the system will automatically correct the control inputs and help prevent the plane from crashing, allowing you time to regain control. After you’ve mastered the basics, you can turn off ACT for complete control and increased maneuverability.

Additionally, the Firebird Phantom has 3 channels with true control of rudder, elevator and throttle, making the transition to flying more advanced aircraft easier.

Parkzone Firebird Commander 2 RTF Electric

Features
-Revolutionary Anti-Crash Technology™ (ACT) makes learning to fly easier and safer than ever before.
-A one-box purchase, which means that everything that’s needed to get flying comes in the box, including batteries for the proportional 2-channel transmitter
-A ready-to-fly design that allows users to get in the air quickly. They simply need to attach the wing and landing gear, and install the rechargeable battery pack, to get flying
-A powerful 380 motor that permits users to have great climb rate and power while flying their Firebird Commander 2
-Two transmitter-selectable flight modes, with Anti-Crash Technology “on” or “off”, for pilots to select the level of control they feel is best given their flying skills
-A detailed instruction manual and video CD that instructs consumers on the proper techniques and steps that need to be taken to get their Firebird Commander 2 in the air and flying safely
-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™
-A soft, resilient rubber nose that cushions the force of impact and decreases damage if the pilot has a hard landing
* A fully proportional 2-channel FM radio system, including batteries for the transmitter, that is offered in six frequencies
-A rechargeable 6-cell 7.2V 900mAh Ni-MH battery pack
-An AC wall charger, with LED and timer, that charges your battery pack in three hours when it is completely discharged
Overview
Nothing as exciting as Anti-Crash Technology (ACT) has happened to entry-level radio-controlled planes.
Here’s how it works:
Two sensors on the fuselage, one on the top and one on the bottom, monitor the position of the plane in relation to the ground. When the plane is flying level, the top sensor sees the sky while the bottom sensor sees the ground, and they tell the onboard computer (receiver) that the plane is flying correctly. If the plane enters a severe dive, the sensors detect the change in orientation and react to the danger that the plane is then in. The software in the receiver will then temporarily cut the motor, and correct the severe angle and pitch of the plane. This causes the nose to come up and pulls the plane out of the dive to help prevent the plane from crashing. The pilot is then able to regain control. If pilots are flying correctly and do not put the plane into a severe dive situation while ACT is engaged, they will have complete control of the plane’s flight pattern. Once users gain experience flying, they can turn ACT off.
Now, you can take advantage of this technological development by purchasing a Firebird Commander 2. This plane comes with everything that you need to teach yourself how to fly, including a battery pack for the plane, batteries for the transmitter, and an instructional video and manual. All of this, including the revolutionary Anti-Crash Technology, makes a price of less than $100 seem like a steal. And, with the ability to shut ACT off, it’s like you get two planes in one. You can learn to fly with ACT engaged, and then shut it off to fly more aggressively and to use X-Port modules, such as the Aerial Drop Module (HBZ6023), Sonic Combat Module (HBZ4020) or the Night Flight Module (HBZ3510). Because flying at night is very difficult, you should be quite experienced before you attempt to use this module and the ACT software should be shut off.

Overview
The Blade CX2 takes the excitement and beginner-friendly flight stability of the original Blade CX and adds Spektrum 2.4GHz DSM radio control that lets you fly anywhere, anytime without ever having to worry about interference. It's the first ready-to-fly RC aircraft of any kind to come with this extraordinary technology built in.

When it comes to micro heli fun everyone can enjoy, you simply can't beat the value and performance of the Blade CX2.

The Blade CX2's coaxial, counter-rotating blades cancel out the rotational torque that makes hovering a conventional heli so diffcult. Instead of a tail rotor, the Blade CX2 uses differential rotor speed for tail control so the inherent stability of the counter-rotating blades is preserved in all phases of flight, making this a heli just about any first-time pilot can enjoy.

No assembly is needed and there is nothing left to buy. In addition to the 2.4GHz DSM 5-channel transmitter and 4 AA batteries, the Blade CX2 also includes a rechargeable 2-cell 7.4V 800mAh Li-Po battery pack with Charge Protection Circuitry, DC Li-Po Balancing Charger, AC charger adapter and a step-by-step instructional VCD that helps ensure your first flight is a successful one.
