I'm interested in the new P-6E Hawk ARF by Great Planes. I swore I saw a thread started on this plane but danged if I can find it. Anyways. It will be out about Christmas time.

It looks like a real fun airplane. I've never built a biplane before. And this is a stretch for me. I'm usually a 3D guy but I'm trying to broaden my horizons a bit and this looks like a fun plane to own and fly.

Anyone else interested?

What engine would you use?
What servos are required for this size of airplane?
How aerobatic would this thing be?
The upper wing would come off in severe stunts?

Anyways, anybody's input would be appreciated.

Thanks
Barry

your right this is a good looking plane if you look on great planes website they have all the information you need.

I found the original thread. Naturally it was just after I started this one. Go figure. Anyways, please post on the original thread, not this one. "Is this thing released yet"

Thanks,
Barry
