Hi Steve, well I haven't flown the T-Hawk but I have flown quite a few like it, the plane should be pretty good about self righting itself so that will help, the biggest thing is don't try to fly in wind over 5 mph, for a while anyway, on most of these planes they will lift on there own with elevator set level but just a tad up is OK, just give it full throttle and a nice straight toss and it should climb out nicely
let it get to at least 100 ft before trying any turns, once there you can adj trims for level flight and just start with gentle turns making big circles, the Hawk should fly good at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle so I would try that once you get it up, this will slow down reaction time and make learning easier, also don't give full left ot right movment on the stick as that can cause it to spiral out of control, try to remember if you get into trouble let go of all the sticks and drop the throttle and it should self level itself, unless of course you have it in a bad spiral dive then it's 50 50 as to it catching itself. these planes are a lot of fun and fairly easy to fly. There are some mods you can do to strengthen the wing and secure the motor and tail boom, I don't know about the T-Hawk but the Fire Bird and AeroBird have issues with the motors pulling throught the fuse on nose crashes and the props eating the rear of the wing as well, Packing tape on the leading and trailing edge is a good idea for strength and protection from prop, If you are interested in other mods there is a whole thread on it called bullet broof that bird, you can use the search and pull it up and read through it, then decide for yourself what you think is needed
Good Luck, I think you'll like the plane
