HAWK pusher jet

[corey c]

Has anyone seen the plans in the new RC&ME mag. of the Tucano and Hawk? They are for speed 400 but I reduced the hawk plans a little and droped in a speed 280. I will let you know how it flyies and post pictures when finished. If it flyies good I might reduce the plans more and run a direct drive gws motor, a little "pocket rocket hawk"!

If you can get the all up weight down to 5 ounces the GWS direct will push it along. I'm not sure the 4x2.5 prop will give you the speed that airframe needs, you might have to go to a higher pitch, I'm not sure how much the GWS can take direct in that regard. If you go for it share your results, I know I'm interested!
