Description

The BAe Hawk like the Aero L59 and the Aermacchi 339 is a stylish EPP Power Scale Soarer (PSS), designed for the sports flyer looking for something different. Like both the Aermacchi, and the L59 the BAe. Hawk is an advanced jet trainer. It again makes an ideal PSS subject due to its 'model' size proportions. The construction follows the same pattern as the Tucano and the Aermacchi i.e. EPP base material reinforced with ply doubler and hardwood spruce spars.

The Hawk will fly in surprisingly light winds for this type of model, typically 6 - 10 mph. It will also fly in the very strong winds with the aid of ballast. It will peform most glider style aerobatics including loops and rolls etc. Once again it will be noted for it's viceless handling characteristics along with it's manoeurveability, not to mention FUN factor. It makes an ideal aileron trainer for the 'improver' flyer looking for a model with a bit more style.

The kit contains all the necessary control linkages and assembly materials except the glues which are 'runny' Superglue (cyno), 2 part epoxy and Spray impact adhesive. The wing and fuselage profiles have been cut using computerised hot wire technology. The only tools required to assemble the BAe. Hawk are a sharp modelling knife, sanding block and a soldering iron.
