RE: FLY EAGLE JET models 2012
Ordered the large Hawk from James last month. Saw the new version at a jet meet here in Pa. and met James at the meet. First class gentleman. Saw the honeycomb construction and talked with the pilot of the hawk and he was impressed with the way it went together and especially the way it flies. No problems with the gear and over all pleased with the jet. That sold me.

RE: FLY EAGLE JET models 2012
James, the pilot flying the hawk is Matt Balasz. Hope I spelled is last name correctly. It was after I saw his jet I knew I wanted one too. Doane.

RE: Landing Lights
I build my own. When i get back home Monday I'll shoot you a couple of pics. I installed it on my FB HAWK. I went a little crazy and installed 2 more one on each main gear for a total of 3. plus running lights on the tail.

RE: Fei Bao Hawk
I see the last post is almost 3 years old. Thought I'd bring it back to life with my almost completed Hawk. Are there any flying that have any info on what the cg and the throws are? Here's a couple of pics of mine.

FB hawk stab servos
I have a FB Hawk and need to find servos for the flying stab. I tried the Hitech 5645's and there was way to much slop at the elevators. Any ideas? What are you guys using with good success.

RE: Forming light covers. Best way?
Here are the lenses: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cat/lenses-mounts/ Here are the LEDS: This is a one watt unit. Notice the different voltage ranges. http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Fspecs%2Fpr2-1whp.html#photos Here is a 3 watt unit: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Fspecs%2Fpr2-3whp.html The lenses are for a different light setup. I modified them to fit the led case.

RE: Forming light covers. Best way?
I make my headlight covers from glass bulbs. I carefully cut the tip off a ceiling fan light bulb and then add the lens and LED to the tip cover. I used this technique on my L-39 wing tank tip lights and now on my hawk when it arrives. The lenses cost about $3.00 and the high power LED was $10.00. Glass bulb was a burnt out one. These LEDS are so bright that looking at it for a couple of seconds will result in red spots floating around the room. Not good.

RE: Maj. Woody's Fei Bao L-39
I have the newer tail with the servo bay in the stab. I also chose to mount the servos in the engine compartment to reduce the nose weight to counterbalance for the CG. I have Hitech 625MG servos.

RE: Nose Strut Pin
Are the pins from McMasters hardened enough to be used without bending when used on grass fields? They have to be able to resist the loads we see on these arcraft within reason of course. I've used the 1/4" from Robarts a couple of years ago and they're still hanging in there.

RE: Maj. Woody's X-Treme Jets BAE Hawk 1/5.5
[/quote] Thanks Doane. No Just working for my fellow modelers. I often thought about not doing these build threads because It is like I am advertising and working for free for the manufacturer. I know for sure that guys have bought jets after getting the inside scoop from my threads. I only hope that I get good customer support from the manufacturers if I have problems. Not working for anyone also allows me to call it as I see it and give an honest evaluation of a product. By the way, did you get those measurements I sent you? [/quote] Yes I did.... Thank you Dom. I was able to put together a decal list for the Hawk to get bids from a couple of vendors to see what they come up with... Thanks again for taking the time to do that for me... Doane
