hello. i would be happy to get beta plans

Hi, I already received the link, I loved it.

It's done!

I built on of these with the centre of gravity 40mm from the front of the wing but it flipped upside down and flat spin when I launched it. On the plans says the cg is 40mm, I assumed it was from the front of the wing but now i'm thinking it meant 40mm from the air intake. I wish this was more clear with a CG mark on the plans, gonna have to rebuild the nose now.

Please forgive me, but that's the way it is with BETA plans. At V0.95 the center of gravity was 40 mm. After that I had built V0.96 with a bit more wing area and was finally able to fly (see video). The CG has changed due to the changed wing. On V0.96 the CG is 28 mm from the leading edge of the wing (where it meets the fuselage). The model is now completed and V0.96 becomes V1.0. I will mark the CG in the plan of V1.0.

Hi,

Many thanks for this beauty. Any chance to get the V1 of the plan ? I can't find it on the website (only V0.96).
My old version died in a tree

Where is version 1.0 located? Can't find it. Thanks!

Hello @Bobii and @datamichael. Since I was busy the last months with the Hornet and the Thunderbolt, I completely forgot to finish the build plan of the Goshawk. I just uploaded version 1.0.

To the download page!​

It is now also available in letter or A4 paper format. Have fun ... and if you find an mistake, please let me know. Feedback is a gift!

Then I'll start to create the decals next week!

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

I've been working on the decals.
For inspiration I have watched the awesome Goshawk Ball video and decided for the number 158:

Here the left side view of the decals:

Yes, I'll retrofit the landing hook. I will publish the parts with the decals.

 

[FoamyDM]

I picked up two 50mm edfs.... I guess this was one of the reasons.

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

The decals are created.

I'll have the sticker sheet printed next week at the local printshop.
The format is 700x450 mm. If everything fits, it will be published.

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

The decals in the format 700 x 400 mm are published and ready for download.

Also the plan is updated with the hook and its fin.

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

Is anyone interested in a swappable Mini Power Pod (FT Power Pack F) version of this Goshawk or in letter or A4 size decals for self-printing?

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

I added the small numbers for the wings:

The decals in letter or A4 format are available for DOWNLOAD. 6 sheets are required.
If you need a specific number on the aircraft or a specific pilot name, just contact me.

Have fun with it!

I'd be interested in a power pod capable version.

I would be interested too.

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

I'm just building the version as a pusher with a FT Power Pack F setup.

When it is finished and the maiden flight was successful, it will get its own thread.

 

[AircPirateNinsei]

It's ready! For the pusher configuration (FT Power Pack F) click here!

Hi AircPirateNinsei,

Could you please send me the v0.4 plan, I really like your design. I want to try to change to push version.

thanks,

V0.3:

View attachment 93869

I replaced the two 5g servos with one 9g servo and a 2mm linkage stopper.

View attachment 93868

I have already prepared some decals:

View attachment 93860

In the search for the decals I found this awesome "Goshawk Ball" video:

V0.3 had enough thrust with the Hobbyking 50mm Alloy EDF V2 4200kv.
Unfortunately, it got strong side wind and was not interceptable. The result does not look good.

V0.4:
I am currently building V0.4. The rear part is no longer so angular and the air intakes are closer to the original.

Now it needs a new canopy and a wing, then it goes to the next test flight.
I will enlarge the wingspan from 610 to 700mm, let's see how it flies with it.

Could you please send me the v0.4 plan, it looks so more scale .
