Ranger 2400 from Volantex RC

Details

The Ranger 2400 is a large electric powered pusher glider that has been specifically designed for FPV flying. The enormous fuselage has plenty of room for large capacity or twin battery packs, radio and stabilizer components, FPV equipment, and molded into the front just below the nose is a purpose-made provision for an FPV camera. Also included is the usual Volantex camera mount that can take the place of the black canopy if you wish. Assembly is quick and easy with no glue required, the vertical fin and horizontal stabilizer are simply screwed to the rear of the fuselage. The EPO wings are fitted with a carbon spar for strength and 2 robust metal spars join the wings to the fuselage. Also, each of the large ailerons is reinforced with carbon to eliminate any chance of distortion or twisting. The wings are attached to the fuselage using the popular Volantex fast connect clips, after flying, simply squeeze the clips to release the wings.

The wide, deep fuselage is blow-molded from a tough, rugged, and flexible plastic with plywood formers that will take a lot of punishment, it will bend and flex before breaking. The fuselage includes a pre-installed main wheel in the center or you can fit the supplied optional 2 wheeled landing gear. This strong, robust landing gear has large tundra style wheels which will allow you to do normal take-offs and landings aided by the steerable tailwheel. The EPO horizontal stabilizer and elevator are also reinforced with carbon to improve the strength and stop flutter when flying at higher speeds. The large, wide chord wing of the Ranger 2400 offers a high lifting capacity making it ideal for FPV flying or as a very stable camera platform.

This is the 5 channel PNF version which is supplied with a pre-installed 4023-1050KV brushless motor, pre-installed 40A switch-mode BEC brushless ESC, and 6 pre-installed 9g servos. Also supplied is a complete hardware pack which includes a 10x8 propeller, propeller adaptor with spinner, horns, push-rods, and screws. All the control surfaces are pre-hinged using strong plastic hinges and not foam as with some other models. The Ranger 2400 is a big, strong, rugged, weight lifting airplane that is perfect for FPV flying or as an extremely stable camera platform for aerial photography.
