Overview
Among the hundreds of
homebuilt aircraft designs that have taken flight over the years, few inspire
pilot devotion like the Van's RV line of airplanes. Just ask any of the
faithful. It doesn't matter which RV they fly. They will all testify to a
balance of stability and nimble response that just makes you want to smile whenever
you're at the controls. Master model designer, Ali Machinchy, has perfectly
captured that Van's experience with this 30cc reproduction of the RV-4. It
combines superb detail and thrilling flight performance to give pilots of
almost any skill level a giant-scale experience unlike any other.
The Hangar 9® Van's RV-4
30cc ARF has been designed to make every step of your giant-scale experience as
hassle-free as possible. It all starts with the assembly. The two-piece plug-in
wing and horizontal stabilizer slide together on aluminum tubes and bolt into
place. The large fuselage access hatch makes electronics installation easy,
too. There's even a pre-assembled, self-aligning drill guide to speed the
installation of whatever powerplant you decide to use, gas or electric. Once in
the air, you'll find the model's wide flight envelope and forgiving flight
characteristics just as easy to enjoy. It will do it all, from touch and gos to
advanced aerobatics, with the same smooth, predictable response the full-scale
version is famous for.
Durable Construction
that Shines
Lightweight, laser-cut
balsa and plywood construction is utilized to bring the Van's RV-4 30cc to life
as a durable scale model that's expertly built to exacting standards. Genuine
Hangar 9 UltraCote® covering provides an easy-to-maintain finish you can
customize with either a military-style or civilian look using the decal sheet
provided.
Custom Scale Detail
Beyond the pilot figure,
cockpit, pre-installed landing lights and other scale details, the complete
Van's experience shines through in the air too with functional flaps that help
widen the flight envelope whether performing slow flight or advanced
aerobatics.
Fast Field Assembly
Both the wing and
horizontal stabilizer are two-piece and plug-in with aluminum tube support,
making storage, transport and assembly easy. The large top-hatch makes access
to the internal components, like the flight battery or fuel tank, as simple as
possible.
Power It the Way You
Want It
The Van's RV-4 30cc is
designed to accept a variety of gas engine or brushless electric powerplants.
Hardware for both options is included along with an electric motor mount and a
self-aligning drill guide so you can get in the air faster.
