Final video pre-maiden;
Tomahawk mk66 walk through (4 min 52 sec)


Some issues remain, the Intarico tank was leaking from the barb inlets so some work is going to be done to them.

This video shows the overall look of the plane and how the antennas e.t.c were attached. Also the full gear sequence is working in this video.

Cockpit pictures, this will be a work in progress. The cockpit is using seats from a skymaster jet 1.65 scale. This was done for weight reasons as additional weight was needed to balance (mainly because the servos were mounted in the tail instead of in the middle).

The side panels and main front dashboard instruments will be added later.

Does the main wing really have as much undercamber at the root like the picture shows? If so, how does that affect aerobatic flight?

Hrm.. unfortunately I have no idea what that is lol... But I know hawks fly excellent, perhaps someone with more aerodynamic knowledge can chime in.

CONGRATS!! I am sure we will meet up at a Jet Fly-In some time in the future. I'm glad that it went well. The video looks great!

I will try to ask the builder if he can make the speed brake for you.

Canopy

How did you attach the canopy support for your hawk. Did you attach from the inside or the outside? Thanks Paul

do you mean the ridge that goes under the canopy? If so it was done using just normal hp-20 hysol.
