HI all!!
I have been running the Hawk since beginning, mine has serial number 002 . Its great engine that deliver what they are promising, I don´t have to have barrel with fuel with me to the flying field. Starting is easy, kerostat will come but they keep on gagging something that it have to work as reliable as the gas start so I hope that they will manage to that soon.
I have mine in the Skymaster L, 39, I have 10kg thrust installed, the plane is 15,5kg ready for take off, maximum speed is 270km/h , Verticals are limited, I prefer 1:1 thrust radio , now I´m moving the Hawk to Wild Hornet , I believe that that is perfect match for the turbine.
This engine is perfect for fast and overpowered planes as it takes less fuel than any other turbine on the market .
Mi opinion is that these guys is the only one that actually knows what they are doing and develops the turbine before they are starting to build prototypes, the rest of the pack is developing thru try and error. I have build mi own turbine with modifications , that is no too hard.
So as far as I´m concerned there is ONLY Hawk for mi project in the future, I only hope that they will develop a larger Hawk engine SOON!!
Best regards
