I never thought it would be possible to recommend a semi-scale
P-51 as your first RC trainer airplane! -but now it is possible. The
Mustang PTS from Hanger 9 has been specifically designed to be a
trainer.
It comes equipped with NACA "Leading Edge Droops". These
are clear plastic pieces that act as leading edge lift devices that
prevent wing tipstall.
This P-51 has a large wing area and low weight, resulting in a
relatively low wing loading that makes the model easy to fly and very
forgiving.
I have seen beginners learn to fly, using this airplane with help from
a good instructor. Bear in mind that you will need a good runway,
to take-off from and land. I do not recommend hand launching this beauty!
To make your learning curve even shorter, the model comes as a
Ready-to-Fly aircraft complete with installed glow engine and a 6
channel radio!
If you can use a screwdriver and a wrench then you can
build this P-51 Mustang!
The model is of conventional construction and covered with
Ultracote-thus making the inevitable repairs possible.
Description
Hangar 9’s P-51 Mustang Mk II PTS is perfect for the entry-level pilot. PTS™
stands for Progressive Trainer System—making this an airplane that will allow
you to go from training to advanced sport maneuvers without upgrading or
purchasing a new plane. Once you’ve mastered the basics with the help of a
flight instructor, simply remove the NACA droops and advance to sport maneuvers.
This Mustang Mk II PTS also comes ready-to-fly so there’s nothing left to build.
And it has incredible scale detail.
The included Spektrum™ DX6i is a 2.4GHz DSM2™ 6-channel programmable computer
transmitter designed to provide freedom from frequency restrictions and
interference. With a variety of features, the DX6i is a radio system that’s
perfect for the student pilot, and just like the plane itself, can grow with the
modeler. Also included with the Mustang is Evolution® Engines’ no-fuss Trainer
Power System. It’s ready to start right from the box with no tuning or lengthy
break-in period necessary. The P-51 Mustang Mk II PTS—the new standard in first
class.
