Overview
Designed
as a trainer and light combat aircraft for use by the British Royal Air
Force, the British Aerospace (BAe) Hawk was mainly used to teach air
combat, air-to-air firing, air-to-ground firing, low-altitude flying
techniques and operation procedures. There are currently over 900 Hawks
in operation and nearly 2 million flying hours have been logged on the
Hawk.
E-flite’s BAe Hawk 15 DF ARF is a sport scale version of the British
trainer. Constructed of fiberglass and balsa, the fuselage is
prefinished with scale details. The Hawk boasts the rare and very
visible Central Flying School airshow trim scheme from 1987 in red,
white and blue.
This exciting model was designed around E-flite’s Delta V 15 (69mm)
fan unit and matched 15 DF brushless motor. Pilots can use a 3-cell
battery pack or utilize a 4-cell battery pack for increased vertical
performance. The built-in fan mounts make installing the fan easy—just
drop in the fan unit and tighten four screws. The removable front hatch
also allows easy access to the radio equipment and battery. The entire
trim scheme is prepainted, pre-trimmed, the wings are covered in
UltraCote and all the decals have already been applied. Created for
the advanced sport scale pilot, the BAe Hawk 15 DF ARF
easily lives up to its reputation of being a stable flying jet.
