E-Flite Apprentice STS - Beginners plane with 1.5m wingspan

BNF Version - EFL37050

Tear through the skies with this E-Flite Apprentice!

If you are talking about the best beginner aircraft, then this big guy definitely belongs to it. It is perfect for beginners without model flying experience. It has technology on board that makes the learning process more enjoyable, for everyone. This plane is well established and has been the start of many RC pilots' careers.

Why is the Apprentice so suitable for beginners (even without model flying experience)?

Stable, durable and extremely stable design

The Apprentice is made of high quality, hard foam and can therefore stand up to a lot of wear and tear. In addition, the design is the result of many years of study & experience, which has led to E-flite's best 'trainer aircraft' (beginner aircraft) ever. Moreover, the manufacturer chose to provide the aircraft with a slightly larger wingspan, which makes this plane the king of stability. Wind at the airport? No problem!

Smart Technology on Board

The exclusive SAFE® technology ensures that almost everyone can learn to fly! The 3 different flight modes (Beginner, Intermediate & Experienced) ensure a progressive learning process. In the beginner mode SAFE helps to avoid loss of control and orientation, prevents most crashes and helps you to guide the aircraft safely through the air thanks to innovative steering assistance. In addition, you always have the 'Panic Recovery' button at hand, which automatically straightens the aircraft's wings at any time. When you have mastered flying sufficiently, you can of course switch off this assistance system, even during the flight (switch). In this way, you will not only learn the basics of flying, but you will also be able to go wild in the experienced mode without limits!

Fun (and ease of use) in the first place

The powerful and efficient drive system gives you a long flight time from one battery charge. It is the ideal stepping stone to your next challenge in the sky. Assembling the Apprentice takes no glue or special tools. The easy process is clearly explained in the manual. In no-time, this plane is ready to immerse you in the wonderful world of flying.

Are there any extra accessories needed?

RTF - Ready To Fly: this total package contains everything you need to start flying except the battery & charger : Apprentice STS (with all equipment already installed + transmitter, needed to complete : battery & charger.

BNF - Bind 'n Fly: This package also contains the Apprentice with all equipment already installed, but no transmitter, charger or battery. This allows you to use previously purchased equipment (Spektrum DSMX transmitter, batteries, charger) with this plane.

If you are an absolute beginner, you should go for the RTF version.

Start2RC Tips: this is useful to know!

Buy an extra battery (or two) to make the most of your free time; this way, you can already charge the other battery while you continue to fly!
If you want to recharge your batteries faster than with the standard charger (RTF version), you should buy a separate charger. These can be found from €44.95 and are a must if you have several planes in your fleet later. Charging is also best done in a LiPo Safe Bag, safety first!
A LiPo Tester is also a must-have tool for model airline pilots. It allows you to measure before or after your flight how much battery charge you have left. This way you avoid taking off with an empty battery or flying with a too empty battery.
Something broken by accident? No problem. The foam is usually easy to glue with the appropriate glue, and all parts of the aircraft are available separately. So there is always a solution and we like to help!
