Red Arrows Hawk – Back in the air 5S flight

Posted on August 27, 2011October 29, 2011

Success! back in the air after a pretty long time of being grounded. I got some 5S 4000 mah batteries and now it can easily get off the ground ( from grass ). With a bigger nose wheel it does do it on 4s but its very borderline. It flys great on both 4 & […]

Red Arrows Hawk – New Struts

Posted on July 28, 2011October 29, 2011

Installed new landing gear that have springs built in. Look great. Went out for a test of the new gear. They do a great job of absorbing the bumps in the grass. I just dont have enough power. Couldn’t get in the air The nose wheel is a bit smaller than it was before so […]

Red Arrows Hawk – Return to flight

Posted on September 19, 2010October 29, 2011

Finally got back in the air again after the FOD incident on the second flight. I installed a Wemotec rotor into the original fan housing. I was planning to use the whole Wemotec fan unit however it would have needed modifying to fit the Sapac motor. In case I want to upgrade the power system […]

Red Arrow Hawk – Canopy

Posted on July 11, 2010October 29, 2011

I decided to use a slide catch at the back and made a tongue and slot at the front. At the back of the canopy I added a small bit of ply to strengthen the area where the slide catch goes in. I later added the magnets to hold the canopy down in the middle […]

Red Arrows Hawk – Nose gear, thrust tube & pics

Posted on July 4, 2010October 29, 2011

A while back the HET nose wheel steering arm broke. The grub screw got stuck and the thread stripped when I was trying to remove it. After trying to get a replacement I decided to try and make my own. Parts aren’t available in the UK according to HET and a few shops I called. […]

Red Arrows Hawk – First Flight

Posted on June 22, 2010October 29, 2011

It went very well. I start from the end of field to give it as much run up as possible. The crops are quite high at this time of year so I needed to be a good 2.5 meters up at the edge of the field. So flaps down a bit gave it full throttle […]

Red Arrows Hawk – Final Touches

Posted on June 12, 2010October 29, 2011

Over the last few days I’ve finished everything of and finished the canopy today. CG has come in between 75mm & 80mm with out any extra weight in the back. The battery is right at the back of the battery tray so I can’t go further back without adding weight, so its very close even […]

Red Arrows Hawk – Tail servo replacement & progress

Posted on May 29, 2010October 29, 2011

Rather annoyingly the tail servo decided to break. Of all the servos this is the hardest to replace as its glued into the tail. Had a look at getting it out from underneath. I just can’t get my fingers far enough in there. So moved to plan B, remove the rudder. Had it out in […]
