Default RE: Comp ARF BAE Hawk build thread

Like the guys if I could only have one I'd probably have the Hawk, it can be flown fast (like the Germans do!!) but I think it looks wrong.
I have a lot of hours on mine (it did start this thread!) and I have flown it in some very tight fields and rough ground (Aberdeen!!) and it does everything. Probably the easiest and slowest flying KE machine out there! Yes my UF is great to chuck about, but the reason I was flying them differently in the videos is they are different type of aeroplanes. I can actualy fly both pretty much the same!

I don't know Hitec servo numbers as I really don't like/rate them. My Hawk has JR 8711 on the tail, 8511 on the rudder and wing I think 8321/8421...I'd have to look at the build again. Basically tail 2 x 15kg plus is enough and everything else 11kg+

I do have a Powerbox fitted and that makes a difference too
