Busy day at our local patch, I've test flown three new Turbine models, FL Hunter, an UF and this CARF Hawk. Smiling Matt after the first flight, the conditions today were rough with a tonne of roll over from up wind ridges and gullies. This Hawk was hugely nose heavy too, we added a few hundred grams of lead to the tail and moved the three packs back and its still infront of where I'd like it. Even so landings were fine using a burst of power at touch down. XG-11, P-140Rx M&R spec accessories.
Matt had a fly around, second flight and loved it. Needs some serious re-installing to sort out the balance before I finish honing the set-up
