Mit knapp 1,4m Spannweite is der kleine ziemlich zickig. Er will schnell bewegt werden und wird bei langsamflug sehr kritisch. Motorzug- und Sturz passen berhaupt nicht. bei vollem Schub zieht er senkrecht nach oben und wenn man im Kurvenflug den Motor anwirft, kippt er weg und geht dem Boden entgegen. Ich baue ihm jetzt zum reinen Segler um. macht so kein Spa. Sieht zwar toll aus der Habicht, aber in Sachen Performance muss stark nachgebessert werden.

Dieser Habicht ist beinahe unfliegbar. Kann ihn nur fr erfahren Flieger und Bastler empfehlen. Das Leitwerk ist eine Fehlkonstruktion. Er schmiert sofort ab, sobalt man versucht ihn ein BISSCHEN langsamer zu fliegen. Unmglich!!!!

This is a nice flying motor glider once you get the trims set.I have been flying it on a 3s/1300 lipo and the balance is good with that battery. I go six good climbs to 500 feet with this battery. The big thing to be careful of with this model is the amount of aileron throw. Keep it down below 50 pcnt and put in lots of expo. 40 to 60pcnt because the plane is very senceitive on the ailerons. I needed a good amount of up trim on my plane but this may vary from plane to plane. I did not glue the wings on as some have suggested and I found the model worked fine that way. It is really a fun airplane and can be very relaxing to fly.

The habitch product to make it fly, with a 1800 mAh battery requires about 30 to 40 grams of weight in the nose, trust corrergir the engine down or make a mix with the elevator and put slats, for a washout .. . otherwise "no fly" .. My Ratings of 1 to 5 ... in my opinion one

HobbyKing should do a recall on this glider.

Save your money and avoid the frustration of owning this model. My best advice is to get the Phoenix 2000 or the AXN Floater Jet instead.

They both fly very well and are easy to control. Flying the "Habicht" is like holding an angry cat by the tail ! Every flight is very short and does not have a happy ending !!!!

Great looking glider, well made and not overly expensive, the only problem we have is that it is totally useless in the most important area ,it is totally rubbish to fly

Do not purchase this plane it is difficult to fly, squirrels during launch and if you are lucky to get it into the air it will tip stall if flown to slowly. This is not a typical glider but more a sport flyer. i have had more crashes than flights.
Access to the motor is impossible as everything has been cynod closed you have to cut the nose off to get to the motor. If all attempts fail to get this plane into the air I will be sending it to EPO heaven.
