Hangar 9 Twist plug and play
Hiya.
Any one have this plane? Im really interested in it but Im concerned about a couple of things. Quality of covering, not enough speed/ power and bad quality servos.
Any help apreciated thanks.

RE: Hangar 9 Twist plug and play
There's quite a large thread on this plane here
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_16...tm.htm#1674813
I bought one in the US as a quick "Get in the air" plane and liked flying it so much that I bought it back to Oz with me but:
DO NOT TRY TO FLY IT FAST
The servos that came with mine were just basic JR's (577 I think) but they work fine.
The Evo .46 that came with it works pretty well (12/4 prop - avoid the 12.25/3.75 as they don't seem to work as well). It doesn't have unlimited vertical but is pretty good for most things.

Like all 3d planes of this type, they have large control surfaces (It's what makes them such a lot of fun to fly). Large surfaces are very prone to fluttering at high speeds and this will tear the plane apart in about a blink of an eye
