I had a pair and they weren't too bad, but no where near as smooth or performance wise as Dragons. You get what you pay for!

You will have a hard time flapping the rotorhawks.
They didn't climb as well as John's dragon wings I tried. But I liked them, untill I used them to cut grass.

Do you know that the new Rotor hawk has the same airfoil of the McCutchen? They fit exactly on a McCuchen hub. The only difference is the hub and that they are aluminum. Remember the new rotor hawks are Flex blade, but Rotor hawks make the hub and they sell them. They also are solid, they don't have rivet. Here in PR allot pilot use to have the old Rotor Hawk that they use to come with rivet and they didn’t like it. Some of them change to the new rotor hawks and they are very please now. But, I am a person that I don't believe what some one just tells me. I just want to see there performance and then take conclutions.

Other thing, you have to take consideration that here in PR (tropical island) is allot of difference on wind, temp, etc. that on the USA. Believe me ALOTE OF WIND and GUST IS WHAT WE HAVE!. For now, the pilot here have taken a conclusion, and is that in PR because of the temp, allote of wind, allote gust, etc. you need heavy rotor blade. For example "McCutchen" and "Rotor hawks". We just have one guy that has DW's on a aircommand, and someone told me that he was having allot of trouble with the gust, and wind, the other guys that were with him was using McCutchen and they didn’t have so much trouble.

Well ,like I say before, I can't say if they are good or bad, because I never have try or Dragon Wing or Rotor Hawks, I only have try McCuchen .
I know what I know because pilot with allote of years on experience on are weather, wind, gust, etc, etc. tells me there experience. For know I will just try it and see. If I don't like it, I just sell them. That is why are machine are
"Experimental". :D
