My Feedback: (13)
Gents,
I am considering getting the Skymaster T45 as my next project. I had a Skymaster 1:4 3/4 BAE Hawk before and loved it. Could anyone provide a review of this bird...how challenging a assembly/build, flight characteristics (I assume it flys like the BAE Hawk but any comments on this), and overall quality of the bird.
Really appreciate any help here.
Thanks,
Wes

It builds pretty much just like the just like the Hawk kit... Cockpit detail is a bit different and gear doors are a bit more to sort out as far as plumbing and sequencing , but not a problem... Speed brakes on the sides not bottom, tail hook assmy is easy as well. Fly's just like the Hawk, I would recommend vortex generators on the wings ( scale ) and we have been putting wing fences ( not scale ) on because I does help stall characteristics... Also a little reflex in the ailerons for normal clean flight helps as well...
Great airplane, you will like it !!
