I'm planning on putting an electric motor in the "beak" with a folding prop. This will allow me to keep up with the local population of hawks and I won't need to bugee or winch to get the thing to soaring altitude.

I'd love to see the reaction the hawks are going to have to this model. They already view my current park flier with suspicion. They swoop in and take a look (fly along side for a circuit), and then carry on about their business.
