This is a great model to start out with. Review by Tepic
The price went up by £10 just after I received mine (lucky me!) If they were still asking £90 it would have got 5 stars. Saying that, the price is still reasonable.
The EZ Hawk is a great first buy. It is easy to assemble, easy to fly and strong enough to accommodate the occasional rough landing. Once completed it has a nice appearance on the ground and graceful in the air!
The overall build quality is good. I had a few small issues with some of the parts being a little fragile, but with a bit of care that wasn't a big problem.
It's really fortunate that this is a simple model as the instructions are pretty bad. To start they are for the Hawk Sky, not a huge problem as the two models are pretty much the same. The instruction book is written in badly translated English, and in places serves to confuse rather than inform. This puts me off buying more complex models from the same manufacturer.
In the air this model is amazing! It is nose heavy, which makes hand launching for the first time a bit exciting, but once it is up it is a dream to fly. It is very stable, smooth, and responsive. The only crash I have had so far was pilot error at a low altitude. On every other occasion where my inexperience has shown, the model has recovered either because of it's stable nature, or thanks to the powerful motor. I have found landings a challenge at times because it just wants to stay in the air. Great :)
If you have no practical experience, but want to try RC flight, buy this.

So far so Great! Review by mike
So far all I can do is comment on the delivery, price and quality of the product and Nitrotek.
Delivery; As they promised next day there is was on the doorstep.
Properly packaged with plenty of the shock absorbing pastic bags that kept it all in good condition. Top marks there!
Product, Again, a very wel packaged and all in good condition product nothing broken and so far on checking all the electrics and radio all AOK.!
Price. What with their keen pricing and the 'Haloween' price reduction I couldn't believe it and all that with the 2.4 Ghz latest radio equipment.
Can't wait to get it built and get flying.
Thanks Nitrotek. (Posted on 07/11/2010)

EZ Hawk Review by Jan M
Hi, I've got my plane yesterday and went flying today for the first time. I flew helicopters before but never a plane and it went great! I only did minor crashes on landing becouse the wind was gusting around 10knots. Nevertheless it is very stable and has a winde range of speed. The stock battery did also a great job as it gave me power for around 20 to 30min. I'm planning on installing a rudder servo from my helicopter to give it even more control in slow flights.
Thanks Nitrotek for the fast service
Regards

EZ Hawk Review by Jess--
1st flight from my new Dynam EZ Hawk (http://www.nitrotek.co.uk/DY8925EZ.htm) Probably shouldnt have been flying (winds between 10 - 15 mph with plenty of gusts from different directions) plane handled it with no problems at all even with the camera attached to the nose.
even tried a loop or 2 and a fast inverted pass with the wind
all in all I am impressed with how well the plane flies out of the box, plenty of power, tame enough to learn to fly with and fun to fly for those with more experience. (Posted on 14/06/2010)
