The long anticipated wait for the high-end, electric ducted fan (EDF) powered Schubeler BAE Hawk is over as a number of kits have just arrived in the UK.
The BAE Hawk was originally developed by Benedikt von Arx for Schubeler. He designed a beautiful semi-scale model for their 90 mm ducted fan DS-51-DIA 3-ph. The model’s construction is very high quality with a multitude of detail including rivets and panel lines. Wing and stabs are built as a 100% honeycomb sandwich. The fuselage consists of a multilayer laminate made of aircraft-grade glass cloth. The result is an ‘extraordinary lightweight model with excellent flight qualities’.
