Hangar 9 have produced a superb scale model replica of the PIPER PAWNEE crop duster plane accurate right down to the aluminium wing struts, flap locations and detailed cockpit complete with instrument panel.
This 40 size Piper Pawnee ARF can be powered using a variety of 2 or 4 stroke glow engines, or converted to electric power for clean, no-fuss radio controlled flying.
The Piper Pawnee was designed and built for agricultural spraying and the wings were cranked to get the spray bars running along the trailing edge as close to the crops as possible.
The pilot was given an excellent view from a cockpit placed high on the fuselage of the low-wing monoplane. The fuselage was designed to protect the pilot, with the cockpit being designed as a strong capsule that would remain undamaged even in a slow-speed crashes associated with spraying.
The undercarriage was also designed to be very strong and specialised struts helped absorb the rough takeoffs and landings that occurred on dirt roads of the farms.
