Has anyone seen the ARF OV-10 Bronco being sold through Hobby Hangar?

Let me know if you have any comments. At $269 it looks pretty good.

I have one with a pair of supertiger 34's, it flies really well. I think you will like it.

Default Engine Choices

My thoughts were a couple of O.S. .25 or .32 fxs, or possibly a pair of .28 Webras that I may be able to get a hold of from a friend.

Has anyone set this up with Retracts?

Default OV-10 ARF retracts

Daven and others who may be interested. Here is the prototype retract installation which will retrofit easily to Broncos currently equipped with the standard fixed gear as supplied.

Hey, I finally ordered one of these kits (ARF)..the retracts will sell for around $ 180.00...will be available soon...going to use Magnum 30 4 strokes...a good combo,I believe...Looks like the skies will be filled with Bronco's this summer.....and I bet they will be coming out with a 81" version later this year....If that is true(I think it is), that'll sell like hotcakes......would you please pass the syrup..............

$180.00 for the retracts? What kind are they?

Spring Air 202 retracts (three gear set) cost about $110.00 at Sheldon's.

Default No retracts here

I didn't go with the retracts on mine, and I'm glad. This thing already has enough servos, extensions, and wires as it is.

I got 3 more flights on mine last weekend, and am really starting to get the hang of flying a twin.

This is a fun plane to fly, that really gets attention.
