Of course, if you enjoy using templates and cutting your own balsa, those options are less attractive.

Semroc's Hawk boost-glider kit is actually a reproduction of the AMROCS Hawk kit. It is very similar to the Estes Falcon, though. The most noticeable difference between the two kits is that the Hawk's motor tube pylon is swept foward rather than rearward as in the Falcon kit. |
