I have always been told that flying a Hawk without fences is like useing razor blades for toilet paper !! I had the the 1/5.5 kit, key word is HAD.. So I think there is truth to the myth... Please tell !!!




Thanks,

I know of at least two Hawks flying without wing fences, mine being one of them. I put about 30 flights on mine last year without any problem. They are not necessary.
