www.sapacamerica.com for the Composite Hawk and motor/fan.

MFALLON introduced the video and arrival times into the US. Great service too.

The composite does not come in a "rtf" package, like the foam version. It is an "ARF". I did get the motor and fan combo with it. It's a 70mm fan but don't know the specs of the motor. Maybe Mike can chime in and give you the details.

Here is the ready to fly foam version. I am building this while I wait for electronics and retracts for the composite. This is a darn nice plane too!

No, you have to modify it. I am working on it, so hopefully I can do it in a way I can provide templates to people who want to do it.

Yeah it has man! I actually haven't seen them yet. I may have thrown them out when I threw away the outer box it came in. Mike sent me a new set and will be here tomorrow. I plan to work on it all weekend!!

Here is where I am thinking of putting the retracts. This is actually a pretty scale location They cannot go back any further because of the spar.
