Default RE: FOX COMPOSITES Bae HAWK, Build thread

Decided to test fly the hawk today it was very late in the day and was starting to get dark and there was no wind.

The model climb after takeoff and needed half down trim for level flight.

I found the controls very soft with the recommend travel and expo [X(]. I will remove the expo and increases the control travel for the next flight.

The centre of gravity was ok as it did not require much down for inverted flight .

Due to poor light I decided to land after 4 1/2 minutes using half flap. I need some lights.

I have attached some photos the quality is not very good due to poor light. I will get some more photos next time.
