Default JHH Hawk Help?

Hello all, just got a used JHH Hawk in good condition, and I need to know the CG, control throws, and neutral point for the flying stabs.

Best Regards,

Michael

Michael,
These are the set ups that I used with my MW 54 powered JHH Hawk. For level flight, set the TE of the stabs flush with the top of the boat tail behind the rudder. About 55 degrees flaps mixed with about 1/32" down elevator for landings. The CG is 5" aft of the wing LE. Movements are; rudder 3/4" left and right, elevator .55" up and down, aileron 1/4" up and down. I also flew with 1/8 " up reflex on the ailerons which helped reduce the snapping on tight turns. My Hawk had a lot of wash in, TE wing tip down, and weighed in at 14 lbs. dry. Go easy on the turns as the Hawk will snap if you do too tight of a turn. But it does recover easily. Good luck.

Thanks Larry, I hope to do the turbine upgrade within a year, either the Wren or an Arte's bee, I think the bee is lighter even with the autostart on it, but its also like another $500. Well thanks again.

Michael
