RE: FOX COMPOSITES Bae HAWK, Build thread
That is a first class shot.
Mine is nearly ready, and should be flying within the next week. I'll not fit the cockpit interior until I've done a fair amount of flight testing though, as the drive batteries will interfere with the seats and footwells; I want to get the CG sorted before carving up the cockpit fittings.
The main tasks to be done now are to re-install the retracts, radio and fan unit, and install the esc and flight pack. As I'm going to be short of time over the next month I'll delay adding the transfer set until after first flights, unless we get a few wet days when I might as well use the time to finish the model.
Realizing that I can't afford a JR 12X 2.4GHz this year along with enough receivers to convert my models, I've invested in a 2.4GHz Spektrum module and a couple of extra 9-channel receivers (plus 2 more from the Horizon Hobby free Rx offer) to convert my PCM-10X. That way I'll have the Rxs ready for when enough dosh materializes, if it ever does, to buy the 12X.
