For fliers on a budget, Hangar 9's Value Series is just the ticket. Framed from balsa and ply like the Ultra Series and covered in pre-printed PVC film covering, they feature ABS wing tips and stab tips. Hangar 9 continues, the Value Series with the semi-scale Cessna .40 Value ARF. The Cessna's semi-symmetrical airfoil and large 720 square-inch wing, combined with its light weight (just 5-1/2 lbs.), make for light wing loading. This means stable slow speed performance and predictable flight characteristics, making it an excellent choice for pilots stretching their skills into basic aerobatics. The Cessna goes together quickly, with components that are straight and true, and comes with a complete hardware package that includes literally everything except the engine, radio, and glue. Indestructible polypropylene wheel pants dress up the model and add to the scale appearance. If you’re looking to move up to more advanced maneuvers than your flat-bottomed trainer will allow, the Hangar 9 Cessna is the perfect step up. With its semi-scale looks, it will stand out from the rest of the sport R/C airplanes at your flying field, and its performance will stand out in your mind!
