Whether you love the giant-scale version or want a Hangar 9® classic on
the lighter side, your next dream machine has arrived. The new Hangar 9
Valiant™ 10cc airplane is everything that made the larger version famous
in a size engineered to take full advantage of smaller engines. It will
also accept brushless electric power systems too—no modifications
necessary. With a 10cc gas engine such as the easy-to-use Evolution®
10GX, you can expect to get long flights with a small 7.5-ounce tank
that costs pennies to fill. The large front hatch makes access from the
top convenient and electric flight battery changes simple.
Count
on the laser-cut, lightweight balsa/ply construction to stand the test
of time while the genuine UltraCote® covering makes its classic lines
shine through. The two-piece, cantilever wing design eliminates the need
for wing struts and gives way to a stylish look that makes field setup
simple. You won't be laboring over the basic build for long either.
Except for the glue-in horizontal stab, vertical fin, and control
surfaces, a majority of assembly is bolt-together. All hinge slots and
holes, including those for the flaps, are factory made so that your time
at the bench can be more enjoyable. The wheel pant accessorized
undercarriage completes the sleek appearance with the rugged ability to
operate from average grass runways. Also on the underside are factory
installed hard points so that the optional lightweight float set can
mount-up with the turn of a few screws.
The Valiant design has
proven versatility and virtuous flying manners. A semi-symmetrical
airfoil provides outstanding stability and good wind penetration so you
can be comfortable flying even when the air currents are less than
ideal. Operational flaps can make takeoff and landing super-short, while
a touch of flap makes cruising around at slow speeds more than a
pleasure. Flaps up, the Valiant airplane is a sport aerobatics dream
machine with dramatic loop capability from any attitude, crisp roll
performance and enough rudder authority to do impressive knife edge
passes—especially for a high-wing cabin model. Like its big brother, the
Valiant 10cc presents with an overall rock-solid feel in the air, like a
giant-scale model. As the namesake implies, the Valiant 10cc is sure to
become a hero around your club field as the model to have, no matter
what flying occasion may rise.
Lightweight Construction
Laser-cut,
lightweight balsa and plywood construction is utilized to bring the
Valiant 10cc to life as a durable sport model that's expertly built to
exacting standards. Genuine Hangar 9® UltraCote® covering provides an
easy-to-maintain finish that looks great.
Wide Flight Envelope
The
light wing loading and semi-symmetrical airfoil combine with an
abundant power source to offer exceptionally friendly flight
performance. Operational flaps allow its versatile flight envelope to
open even wider into the world of Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL)
capability.
Ready for Floats
The optional
Carbon-Z® float set and wire mounting strut set exactly fit into the
factory installed hard points located in the belly of the Valiant 10cc
airplane. Once assembled, conversion to a float plane takes only minutes
to complete.
Power It the Way You Want It
The
Valiant 10cc is designed to accept the Evolution® 10GX, 10cc gas
engine, an 11cc four-stroke or brushless electric power plant
equivalents. Hardware for both options is included along with an
electric motor mount so you can get in the air faster.
