I like that Golden Hawk , Kim can you tell me how good it fly's ? I got some those sexy Space Bugs and Jr. too LOL Very Happy There was a guy in K-ville not to far from here that was selling the walt M kits at one time , he only carried a few wonder if he is still doing anything "?! Huh...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Golden Hawk is short-coupled, but flys nicely under power, and glides well on shut down. It's only real problem is that it needs to be flown more. It's stitched hinges are still a little stiff, and more flying would fix this. I also want to build up a nice retro-looking cowing for it that might give it a sleeker look.
The Space Bug is a bit balky, so it has been limited to big barnstormer loops and wingovers, with no sustained inverted stuff yet, but the grass is gonna be pretty tall by the time I get home, so it may get it upside down then.
I can get the plan sheet to you if you decide to scratch one out...

Your description of flight characteristics of Golden Hawk is consistent with the one I had as a 12 y/o. Mine was powered with a fairly hot Wen-Mac MK X with a Perfect wedge tank inside fuselage, so it didn't have that alien sex toy look about it. It was a good solid zippy sportster. Good luck getting any more out of in the aerobatics department.

Nice work. By the way, I think that a Model of the Month contest can be arranged.

I've go this scanned sheet here, or if you PM me you snail mail address, I'll just send you a printed copy. I'll also run a Sharpie pen around it's wing on a sheet of cardstock to give you it's shape, since that's not included on the plan sheet.
