includedOverviewIntroduced in 1977, the Christen Eagle II was the brainchild
of avid aerobatic pilot and entrepreneur, Frank Christensen. His idea? Give
pilots a refined, aerobatic kit plane almost anyone could build. The sporty
little two-seater was so well-received that a slightly modified, single-seat
version became the plane of choice for one of the greatest aerobatic
demonstration teams of all time – Charlie Hillard, Tom Poberezny and Gene
Soucy, otherwise known as The Eagles. The trio flew the plane from 1979
through 1995, thrilling millions at air shows all over the world. The Hangar
9® Christen Eagle II 90 ARF brilliantly captures the spirit of this remarkable
airplane. Constructed of top quality balsa and light plywood, it will eagerly
perform extreme aerobatics just like its full-scale inspiration using your
choice of glow or brushless electric power options. And it comes out of the
box with a level of scale fidelity that truly sets it apart from the rest of
the sport model crowd. If you’re a sport flier ready for more advanced planes
or an aerobatic pro looking for a fun, sport scale model, the Christen Eagle
II 90 has what you’re after.
