Product Information
15cc of fast, furious and fun flying
What if you could fly a remote control plane with the same features of a full-scale airplane? Well now you can, with the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub. This giant 90-inch span, all-wood plane blends tradition and innovation… talk about bang for your buck.
Two-piece wing, easy to transport
Horizon Hobby has designed the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub to put in the car and carry around easily. The two-piece wing and the quick-connect struts mean you’ll spend less time trying to pack it up, and more time flying it. And you won’t get lost flying somewhere new. Unique details like the cockpit doors, landing lights and a scale spinner will keep your eyes on the prize.
Landings and take-offs are streamlined, too. There will be no nail-biting moments. A light wing loading and functional flaps does a lot of the hard work for you. If you run into any tricky situations, its shock-absorbing features will keep you safe from bumps and wind.
The Hangar 9 Carbon Cub: A new spin on a classic
The Cub is known for its flexible design and flying capabilities. Having first flown in 1938, Cub Crafters of Yakima, Washington started restoring original Cub airframes. Today, the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub offers pilot’s unparalleled performance, with the spirit of the classical Cub at its core.
To get you up, up and away, you just need a 6+ channel transmitter and receiver, 7 x standard digital servos, 2 x batteries and a propeller. You might like to think about the optional 1/5 scale float set, too.
So choose that park, lake or even your own backyard – if it’s big – to launch the Hangar 9 Carbon Cub… just be prepared to turn heads.
