Overview
The Twist 3D 40 ARF from Hangar 9® is the
most fun you can have at the flying field without getting arrested. An exciting
.40-size plane capable of both sport and extreme 3D performance and an excellent,
unintimidating fun flyer to putter with on the weekends, the Twist is constructed
from sturdy, lightweight balsa and plywood, and looks super-cool with its bold
yellow UltraCote® trim scheme with contrasting accents. Best of all, the
Twist, with its deep bevels for extreme 3D throw and counter-balanced rudder
and elevators, provides plenty of aerobatic thrills.
For instance, the light wing loading and oversized control surfaces allow for
incredible 3D maneuvers. From hovers to harriers, knife-edge loops to climbing
flat spins, the Twist can handle just about any aerobatic maneuver thrown its
direction. Using a Saito™ .72, the Twist can run tight ten-foot loops
and—unlike some fun-fly planes—full-throttle high-speed runs. It’ll
hover and torque-roll down to head high. On low rates with low power settings,
the Twist demonstrates stable slow-speed characteristics and very gentle stalls.
For convenient storage and transport to the
flying field, the wing removes quickly and easily. The tail-mounted servos offer
short and stiff linkages. And the Twist can easily be adapted to electric power,
using a brushless motor and the enclosed installation instructions.
