Default RE: Hangar 9 ARF Quiality~Not

The Hangar 9 ARF;s run great to bad. The worst was an Ultra Stick....the economy one. It was a total waste of money. The hardware was garbage and the plane actually would not fly. Hard to explain, but it was just unflyable. I crashed it, stripped out the radio and engine and left it in the field to get plowed under.

I have a Saratoga. It is covered great and everything fit together perfectly. My only beef was that the wings have anhedral instead of dihedral. I could not get their customer service people interested. Their only concern was if it would fly. It flys, but maybe not as well as it should and it looks funny with the saggy wings. Many potential buyers at my field have passed on buying one after seeing mine.

One the plus side, I have a Pulse 125 that is put together unbelieveably well. Just a great value for the money. My Twist60 was even better until a shorted battery pack did it in. The price for what you get is super.

The Hangar 9 Cubs are all great as is the Taylorcraft and the list of others goes on and on. I would just check around before you buy a Hangar 9 and see what everyone else;s experiences are. Overall, I think they are some of the best.
