Default NEW LARGE SCALE "TWIN SENSATION"

Hello everyone, Hodges Hobbies has been working long and hard on this plane and has finally got it to where it is perfect! Let me introduce you to the "Twin Sensation"! It has a 126 inch wingspan (yes I did say 126"s) and can cater motors from 26cc to 50cc. It comes in two different colors for you to choose from, white, red and silver or white, black and silver. Both look very attractive. This twin comes as an ARF with all the retracts included, wheels, tires and all the hardware needed! Not only does the plane look real good, it also flies very well. With the wide range of motors you can set yours up to be mild or wild. This plane will only be offered through Mac at Hodges Hobbies. Purchases can be made easy and the plane will be drop shipped at your house! If you have any questions about this plane or set ups feel free to ask me here or speak with Mac at the shop. His phone number is 866-924-9505. Mac is open from 10am - 6pm, Monday - Saturday. We have the planes on site so you can watch it fly and have a look at the construction. For those who can't get by let me know and I'll get some pictures of what you would like to see.

Thanks for looking,
Chris

Yes it is. Also for those that were at Joe Nall and saw the large twin up there it was Mac's. He was flying it on the main flight line that week.

One thing I did forget to mention is the wings are separated in three sections. There is a center section that bolts on to the fuse and then the outer panels bolt to the center section. I should have pictures up later this afternoon.

So whats the all up weight on this thing??

A 126 inch airplane with two 1.4 four strokes - I don't think so-IMHO...

All up weight will be 31-32lbs depending on motor choice. One of the first prototypes had 26's on it. It flew very scale like. 26cc engines will work very well with this airplane. Just like a 100cc motor will fly a 40% plane "scale". You arent going to be doing much 3D with it but it will fly the airplane in a scale manner.

You would have been impressed with Mac's 10 foot Nosen 310 with two YS 1.20 four strokes then ! Automotive paint it was sharp. And flew VERY well.

You're right if you are going to be hovering, but this is scale, and plenty of power I assure you.
