Primarily known as a “bush plane,” the de Havilland Beaver is distinguished for its ability to excel deep within territory where neither surface vehicle nor average pilot would venture lightly. The Hangar 9® DHC-2 Beaver 30cc ARF is built with the scale RC pilot in mind who wants a giant-scale model that’s as versatile as it is realistic. Its impressive stance begins with a huge 110-inch wingspan, but you’ll enjoy great performance using just a 30cc gas engine. Construction is an evolution of Hangar 9 tradition where only the best materials in balsa and plywood are selected for use with our modern processes, form assembly, tab alignment rigidity and laser-cut part accuracy. The result is an aircraft in final form that has sacrificed the least amount of scale authenticity to achieve the best appearance and most especially flight performance.
Scale Outline
The easy flying characteristics,
plus the outstanding attention to scale detail and outline make the
Hangar 9 DHC-2 Beaver 30cc an excellent model for first-time and expert
giant-scale pilots alike.
Excellent Low-speed Performance
The operational
flaps offer short field operation and are a popular for intermediate and
expert pilots who want to replicate full-scale performance.
Working Doors
Both sides of the fuselage feature
scale-shape doors that open wide to allow generous access to the
interior where included scale details such as pilot seats and an
instrument panel can be found. We recommend the Hangar 9 1/5-scale
civilian pilot figure (HAN9119) for an accurate appearance in flight.
Corrugated Control Surfaces
Corrugated surface
detail is factory applied to simulate the aluminum sheeting used on the
full-size rudder, elevator, ailerons and flaps for control surface
rigidity.
Fiberglass Details
The radial cowl and landing
gear fairings are painted to match the Hangar 9 UltraCote® covering. The
sculpted shape of the wing tips is also replicated in fiberglass.
Two-piece Wing and Horizontal Stabilizer
The two
wing panels that make up the 110-inch wingspan slide on over an aluminum
joiner tube and pin into the fuselage sides with rods and a nylon
thumb-screw. Each airfoil shaped wing-strut adds to the structural
support and secures in place with a quick-release mechanism. Each half
of the horizontal stabilizer connects to the tail section with an
aluminum joiner tube to provided support, assembly and storage options
that make the DHC-2 easier to maintain and transport.
Genuine UltraCote Finish
The all-wood airframe of
the Beaver is finished in genuine Hangar 9 UltraCote covering which is
well known for its durable finish, brilliant looks and ease of
maintenance.
Optional Floats and Strut Set
The DHC-2 Beaver
30cc can be converted into a float plane when you add the optional float
strut set (HAN454512) and floats (HAN4580)—sold separately.
