Denight Special Racer 50
from Hangar 9
ARTF Semi Scale IC or Electric

Air racing is as popular now as it was a during the early years of powered aviation and modellers looking to combine the spirit of the past with speed and performance in the form of a scale classic racer should look no further than Hangar 9’s latest release, the Denight Special.

This great looking model delivers great flying characteristics together with all the looks and glamour of a bygone age in air racing.
This almost ready to fly plane is a scale model of Bart Denight’s 1950’s Reno racer, complete with its traditional trim cream and red colour scheme and matching helmeted pilot.

Hangar 9’s Denight Special provides the look of a classic racer with a smooth, crisp, and precise flight performance that is well within the grasp of less experienced pilots. This is due in part to the generous wing area and light wing loading and the lightweight balsa and plywood used in construction.
A comprehensive hardware pack and photo illustrated assembly guide make assembly a quick and enjoyable experience and the model may be made flight ready in a few evenings, perhaps less if choosing electric power and for modelers using a conventional two or four stroke engine a transparent dummy engine cowling is included making cowling installation a lot easier.

The model may be powered by either a conventional glow engine mounted on its side to maintain the clean lines of the airplane, or easily converted to electric power for silent racing!
Whatever version you choose the Denight is just that little bit different to guarantee you an audience at your local flying field.
