Our extensive range of ready to fly (RTF)
and almost ready to fly (ARF) trainer, performance, aerobatic and scale
model aircraft are engineered and crafted to exacting standards using
the latest computer aided design and machining technology. An extensive
pre-production program of assembly and flight-testing is undertaken
to rectify any issues that may need to be ironed out and resolved before
the models are put into production and then released to the hobby industry.
Hangar 9 models are constructed from laser cut balsa and plywood ensuring
lightweight, rugged airframes that fly superbly. Only the finest materials
and components are used in their construction such as our exclusive
Ultracote covering. Comprehensive top quality hardware packs containing
wheels, fuel tank, control horns, pushrods and links etc. are included
with each plane and the detailed photo illustrated assembly guides
makes building these models enjoyable and hassle free! |

A relatively recent addition to the aerobatic
scene is the rapid growth in freestyle aerobatic
models.
So what makes these models so different? Well right from
the start they are designed to fly
at the very limits of
performance, having an ability to perform extreme 3D manoeuvres,
whereby
the aircraft is able to hover, almost stationary
in the air, defying the rules of flight. Truly stunning,
and outrageous performance.

These aircraft are designed to emulate the flight
performance of the many full-scale aerobatic
aircraft that are
flown in competitions around the world today.
Capable of performing high plus or minus G manoeuvres these nimble
aircraft fly to a precise
Internationally recognised aerobatic
schedule, the Federation Aeronautique Internationale (F.A.I)
Aresti schedule, where positioning and accuracy of the aircraft
in the sky, is all important. |

The Hangar 9 range of warbirds allow the modeler the chance, albeit
on a smaller scale to
experience the thrills of flying a fighter plane.
Equipped with retracting landing gear, sleek looks
and accurate paint
schemes, these models perform in a very realistic manner, looking at
their best
when flown in low strafing runs across the field, pulling
up into gloriously slow victory rolls, and
coming in to perform a perfect
three point landing with the flaps and gear down at the end of
another
successful mission. |

Super Scale models are just that, models based on full size aircraft
with a wealth of scale detail
allowing the modeler to recreate a truly
outstanding representation of the original. Fully detailed
and functioning
landing gear, detailed flight control surfaces, accurate and detailed
instrument
panels, dummy engines, properly airfoil shaped wing struts,
but above all super scale looks and
flight performance all contribute
to a Super Scale model. |

The staple diet of many flying clubs. The
sport model, so called because of their superb durability
and performance. These models are rugged enough to handle
the rigors of week after week flying
without getting knocked
out of shape, aerobatic enough to keep the adrenaline flowing,
and
compact enough to get into and out of all but the smallest
flying sites. The real bonus however is
the fact that they
can be flown with inexpensive 4 or 6 channel radios, and
be powered
with economically priced two-stroke glow engines |

With the exception of the P-51 Mustang, which takes a brand
new approach to the concept of a
trainer these trainers are traditional
high wing cabin type which have generous wing areas and
light
wing loadings. They also possess very stable flight characteristics,
and a degree of “self
righting” that allow the novice time to
think and react. Covered in high visibility colour schemes
that
make them easier to see in the air, and equipped with tricycle
landing gear that helps to avoid
“nose-overs” all of these rugged
models are designed and built to withstand the bumps
and knocks
that are inevitable during the learning curve. |

Long before radio controlled flying became the norm models
were flown either in free flight model
or by using control
lines. Now with this latest addition to the Hangar9 range
of models, modellers
looking to step back in time and recreate
those early days can do so easily with this super ready to
fly control line model. |
