Product Information
The full-size OV-10 Bronco was one of the most versatile military aircraft and saw action as a light attack and observational platform. Faster than a helicopter yet slower with more maneuverability than a jet, the Bronco was the best of both worlds bringing a multitude of tactical advantages. In military operations, the Bronco excelled at anti-guerrilla operations, air support and utility missions. It saw action in the final years of the Vietnam War and flew combat missions in Operation Desert Storm.
As a rarely modelled warbird, the Hangar 9® OV-10 Bronco features incredible scale details and a unique flight experience as a twin-engine aircraft. Hangar 9 is proud to introduce this modern warbird in a complete ARF format for the giant scale RC pilot.
For the giant scale warbird enthusiast and experienced pilot, the new Hangar 9® OV-10 Bronco is our largest giant scale warbird to date. It features many scale details and the incredible flight performance Hangar 9 customers expect. As a unique subject matter, the OV-10 Bronco features many scale details such as highly detailed satin-finish printed covering and ultra-scale accessories including a pilot, cockpit details and sidewinder missiles. The fully-painted fibreglass cowl features added weathering for scale realism. Featuring a 108-inch wingspan, this model represents giant-scale flying, yet is practical enough to fly every day. The three-piece plug-in wing with centre-section landing gear support allows for easy transportation and field assembly. Designed to accept 30 – 35cc gasoline engines as well as electric power, the complete hardware kit is included and makes mounting the power system quick and easy. Like the full-size warbird, the scale undercarriage legs are sprung for shock absorption and made from high-grade aluminium taking most of the bounce out of tough terrain. The optional-use, electric retract set with shock-absorbing scale struts provides additional scale realism. The Hangar 9 OV-10 30cc is a matchless model delivering the flight experience of a versatile twin-engine aircraft.
