E-Flite Habu STS 4s w/ Flaps
The Habu is lighter than air; it can fly all day. The downside is that it can be hard to land because it'll glide forever. The Habu generates so much lift, it can be detrimental to flair before landing. The flaps help the Habu create drag while also enabling it to fly at extremely slow speeds (~33mph, the speed needed to take off), which controls it's descent rate to more accurately model the plane's physics in a real environment without having to add wind in the simulator.
The flaps use channel 6 on the Spectrum DXs. I've added elevator deflection to cut a majority of ballooning. The flaps aren't visible but can be if they are assigned to the same parts as the alerions in the editor.
