Hello all,

I am new to this fourum bet have been flying models for about 7 years now.

I recently bought an AMD Hawk allong with the Wren 44 Gold and found it to be a really nice model to fly,

Unfortunatly on the 6th flight it all went wrong and the model ended up looking not to dissimilar to the black Hawk of Garry UK.

The model was flying in a slight shallow dive when i went to pull out there was a total lack of elevator responce and the model went into the ground.

After much thought and consideration it turns out that the Elevator servo was not powerful enough even ay 8.5kg@10mm.

The instructions say to use a 8kg servo or more so i thought that 8.5kg wouls have been good enough.

There is some pritty weired forces actin on the tailplane of the BAe Hawk and for the size of the AMD Hawk a 11kg servo is needed for the model to fly any speed.

the forces were worked out in the Wind tunnel at Airbus uk where i work and were pritty high for such a small model.

This may have been the cause of pauls model to crash??

So i was looking at the Jim Fox Composites model as a replacment.

Many thanks,

Chris.
