RC Electric
Planes (Large) Including the P-51 Mustang and other giant scale RC airplanes.
THE TYPES AVAILABLE
RC Electric Planes are now available in larger and larger sizes,
up to and including Giant Scale RC.
The photo above shows the
Hanger 9 P-51 Mustang Bluenose.
This is a good example of RC
Electric planes (Large) As well as possibly being powered by a 60 size glow
engine, it comes, ready from the box, for installation of an RC electric motor.
Many of the RC airplanes available today are totally suitable for electric
power.
Note the scale flaps and the panel lines. This model also comes
complete with all-metal mechanical retracts with spring-loaded strut assemblies.

Overview
Hangar 9’s P-51 Mustang 60 ARF is a remarkably accurate rendition of America’s
favorite fighter airplane. This 60-sized almost-ready-to-fly airplane was
designed and crafted to be the most realistic sport-scale ARF when compared with
other RC electric planes. It is constructed of lightweight balsa andplywood,
and the entire airframe is fully sheeted to maintain the model’s strict scale
appearance and strong flight performance. Scale airfoils were used to maintain
the exact scale outline of the P-51’s tail surfaces, and the control surfaces
feature scale hinge lines as well. Even the location of the tail wheel matches
that of the full-scale P-51. The functioning flaps facilitate scale takeoffs and
landings while the internally mounted flap and elevator linkages preserve the
scale outline. The P-51 Mustang features a plug-in, two-piece wing and plug-in airfoiled stab/elevator sections for easier assembly and
disassembly.
For the ultimate, realistic flight experience, in the field of RC electric
planes, the P-51 comes with all-metal mechanical spring-loaded strut assemblies.
These retracts are easy to use—no previous retract experience is necessary.
The P-51 comes out of the box with all kinds of details that have been finished
for the consumer, including a factory-painted fiberglass cowl, removable scale
antenna, scale-shaped spinner, scaletires and hubs, scale guns, and much more.
For a high-quality outer surface and realistic appearance, the P-51 is dressed
with a printed, scale-like flat finish UltraCote® covering.
The P-51 Mustang 60 can be powered for performance using a variety of 2- or
4-stroke glow engines or a small 20cc gasser like the Saito FG-20; it is
perfectly powered by an Evolution® .61NX engine. Or, the P-51 can be converted
to electric power straight from the box—no modifications or conversions are
necessary. Hangar 9 has thought of just about everything to make set up
convenient, including a removable, easy-access belly hatch and large top hatch
for battery packs or radio equipment. Because all of the mounting hardware is
included, consumers can exercise the electric option to quickly and
easily mount their favorite E-flite motor to this airframe for charge and
fly excitement right from the start.

This scale beauty shows just what is possible using today's technology in RC
electric planes, Electric power in a twin removes one of the biggest problems
when flying twins-engine reliability! When using conventional glow or
gas power, if one engine were to fail, flying a scale, heavy twin on one
engine takes considerable flying skill. The use of RC electric motors
gives the ultimate in engine reliability.

The photo here shows the DeHavilland DHC-6 Twin Otter. This
makes into an ideal first twin RC electric plane. The
combination of a fixed landing gear and flaps makes every landing
a joy and no more single engine emergency landings with the reliability of RC
electric motors!
