The original Hangar 9® Valiant 30cc quickly became a favourite among pilots thanks to its classic yet modern design, exceptional stability, and surprisingly strong aerobatic capability. It delivered a smooth, predictable flying experience that appealed to a wide range of pilots. However, its large 108-inch wingspan made transportation and storage challenging for many users.
To solve this, Hangar 9 introduces the Valiant 20cc, a more compact and practical version featuring an 86.5-inch (2.2m) wingspan, while still delivering the full giant-scale flying experience. It combines practicality with performance, making it ideal for everyday flying without sacrificing presence or capability.
Construction & Design
The Valiant 20cc is built using a strong, lightweight, and stiff traditional wood airframe (balsa and lite-ply construction), ensuring long-term durability while maintaining excellent flight performance. The model is fully covered in genuine UltraCote® film, providing a premium finish with excellent resistance to wear.
Its aerodynamic design is based on a semi-symmetrical airfoil, carefully chosen to provide a perfect balance between stability, efficiency, and aerobatic performance. This allows the aircraft to perform equally well in relaxed sport flying and more demanding manoeuvres.
Flight Performance
The Valiant 20cc is known for its outstanding versatility in the air. It offers extremely smooth and stable flight characteristics, making it very forgiving and confidence-inspiring, yet it also surprises with its aerobatic capabilities.
With flaps retracted, the aircraft becomes a true sport aerobatic machine featuring:
Crisp and responsive roll rates
Strong rudder authority for knife-edge flight
Excellent tracking and wind penetration
When the flaps are deployed, performance shifts dramatically, offering:
Short Takeoff and Landing (STOL) capability
Ultra-slow, controlled landing approaches
Enhanced low-speed stability
The flap system is highly versatile and can be configured for:
Flaperons (full-span aileron/flap mixing)
Spoilerons
Advanced crow-style mixing
This makes the Valiant 20cc extremely adaptable to different flying styles.
It is ideal for pilots who enjoy custom builds and tuning their own setup.
PNP Version (Plug-N-Play)
The PNP version is designed for maximum convenience and minimal setup time. It comes with all major electronics pre-installed, including:
The Hangar 9® Valiant 20cc delivers the perfect combination of scale presence, sport performance, and aerobatic capability in a more practical size. Whether you choose the ARF for a custom build or the fully equipped PNP version for quick setup, the Valiant 20cc offers a refined, versatile, and highly enjoyable flying experience.
