Meridian 10cc ARF (HAN5015) by Hangar 9

The Hangar 9® Meridian 10cc ARF aircraft embodies the pure joy of what RC sport flying is about. From its long fuselage and stylishly shaped tail surfaces to the super stability of its generously proportioned constant-chord wing, every feature ties together. A perfect next-level sport airplane designed to have familiar forgiving manners, it appeals to the veteran and novice RC pilot. Its exceptional construction is lightweight without sacrificing strength or rigidity and is oversized just enough to deliver better visibility and great handling. In addition, its functional flaps add a level of capability that complements the ease and grace in which this low-wing model performs sport aerobatics and smooth landings.

The Meridian model shines when powered with the Evolution® 10cc gas engine. Besides the thrilling experience this engine offers, you’ll enjoy the ease of use and reliability that outclasses the hassles and expense of using glow fuel. Because the Evolution 10cc gas engine is so economical, you’ll carry less fuel in the airplane, which means less weight for the same amount of flight time.

The Hangar 9 Meridian not only offers pilots the chance to improve their flying skills, it also offers the opportunity to become familiar with "petrol power" without having to build or buy a larger model. This is especially true with the availability of Evolution's 10cc petrol engine.

The obvious major benefit of using a petrol engine is the huge savings to be made on running costs when compared to the price of glow fuel, however those used to glow models will also appreciate the cleaner operation of petrol engines that generally leaves no oily residue over the model.

Constructed in the traditional way using balsa and plywood the model is both lightweight and durable and features a striking Ultracote colour scheme with matching pre-painted fibreglass cowling and wheel spats. Accurate ground handling is assured thanks to the tricycle landing gear and steerable nose leg, this remains attached to the fuselage and combined with the two-piece plug-in-wing the model is both easy to assemble and transport.The fuselage has a large access hatch providing easy access to the radio gear or if powering the model with an electric motor, access to the flight battery.

Whatever power option is used be it petrol, two or four stoke glow engines or electric power, no additional modifications or hardware is needed as all the necessary parts for all are included. This along with Hangar 9's illustrated assembly guide means this super model can be flight ready in just a few hours.
