Default RE: Cessna 182 arf


ORIGINAL: Moms Mistake

Suavehouse504, is this the H9 Cessna 182 you are talking about? If so, it fly's just as Norfolksouthern said. I flew the H9 Cessna 182( Giant Scale ) about a year ago and she was ahandful.My brother spent between 2,000 and 2,400 on this Cessna and countless hours building and he couldn't fly it because of little experience.

After seeing the moneyand time he dedicated to this airplane and him not being able to fly it made me feel bad. We went to the airport, I did the maiden and flew it a 2nd time to let him get some stick time in and onto Ebay she went.

Stay away from this Cessna, it is heavy, has low wing area, isn't forgiving and experience is a must.

If you really like the Cessna, you can still get 1, but stay in the 10 lb range and away from the 17 and 20 pounders.
Yes, thats the one. I was also eye balling the top-flite 182 arf. After reading the last couple of posts I've decided on the Hangar 9pulse 125 arf as a second plane
