SAFE® Technology. Smart Electronics. Official AMA Trainer.
The E-flite Apprentice STS 1.5m is based on one of the most successful platforms ever designed for learning to fly radio-controlled airplanes. As the Official Trainer of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), its large 1.5-meter wingspan provides excellent visibility and stability, even in light wind. Equipped with SAFE (Sensor Assisted Flight Envelope) technology, it offers multiple flight modes that grow with your skills, ensuring a successful first flight.
Smart Innovation for New Pilots
The Apprentice STS is more than just a trainer; it’s a "Smart" aircraft.

Built from durable EPO foam, this Ready-To-Fly (RTF) basic version includes the Spektrum DXS transmitter, needing only your choice of battery and charger to take to the skies.
