I just got my first scale EDF, Freewing Bae Hawk 70mm EDF. I am very happy with it. A complete different feeling from the models I am used to, the Hawk is heavy(relatively :)), solid and precise! I expect it to be a great flier!
I reuse one Spektrum receiver AR636, and set the gyro gain for row at 60%, pitch 70% and yaw 70%. While I swerve the model, I can see pronounced movement of control surfaces. I am sure the direction is valid. However, I am not totally sure if my gain is too aggressive or too weak. I get the gain number from the E-flite Viper 70mm EDF config file provided from HH. I assume the numbers should not be too far off. But I still would like to know your opinions.
Another issue is: I think the front wheel is too small. It is 1 3/4 inch diameter. I look at the front gear, the cavity seems large enough to hold a bigger wheel. Is it a good idea to replace a larger wheel? I want to do this because I will fly it from grass. If I can replace it, how big is good?
Thanks a lot! happy flying!
