MILES M.2H HAWK MAJOR 1/4 Scale Vintage Racer/Trainer (Giant Wingspan 97.6" 2480mm)
SPECIAL INTRO PRICE $200 OFF The Hawk Major was designed as a successor to the Miles M.2 Hawk by Frederick George Miles. The main modifications were the use of a De Havilland Gipsy III engine, a metal engine mount - the previous one had a wooden one - and a landing gear with a fairing over the legs, the latter sometimes being called "pants" because of its characteristic shape. The prototype, designated M.2F Hawk Major, made its maiden flight in 1934 and, in the hands of Sir Charles Rose, won second place in the King's Cup Race that same year with a recorded average speed of 237.83 km/h. The aircraft sold well to private owners, including two examples that received smoke generators to allow them to write in the sky (skywriters). Many unique racing versions were also produced. In October 1934, Squadron Leader Malcolm C. McGregor flew a Hawk Major from RAF Mildenhall, England, to Melbourne, Australia, in 7 days and 15 hours in the MacRobertson Air Race. In 1936, the Miles Hawk VI, registration G-ADOD, flown by A. E. Clouston, was entered in the Schlesinger Air Race from Portsmouth to Johannesburg. It almost made it all the way to Johannesburg, but was forced to make a forced landing due to engine problems, only 150 miles south of Salisbury.4 In 1935, an improved version of the aircraft was built for use in the USA. In 1935, an improved version was developed for training purposes, designated Miles M.2 Hawk Trainer. Specifications:

Description:Bob Smith Industries CA Glue Super-Gold+™ Odorless, CASUPER-GOLD™ and SUPER-GOLD+™ are our odorless INSTA-CURE CAs They are non-frosting and take only 2 or 3 seconds longer to bond. There are no fumes that irritate the nose and eyes. The SUPER-GOLD™’s do not attack white foam; therefore, they can be used in the building of foam core wings and the assembly and repair of plastic and foam ARF’s. They will not fog clear plastic. SUPER-GOLD+™ is ideal for attaching clear canopies in plastic model kits; however, MAXI-CURE™ is still recommended for assembling the rest of plastic kits. Wood can be bonded to white foam with SUPER-GOLD +™ in less than fifteen seconds. For bonding foam to foam, spray a very light fog of INSTA-SET™ to one piece and apply SUPER-GOLD+™ to the other before joining. Excess INSTA-SET™ may create too much heat, which can melt the foam. Both SUPER-GOLD™’s cure to a more flexible consistency for better shock absorbtion. Whenever a large amount of CA is to be used in such applications as saturating fiberglass or Kevlar, SUPER-GOLD™ eliminates the irritating fumes from the evaporating monomer that make repeated use of CA unpleasant at times.

Avaliable in 2oz and 3/4 Pocket Size. Pocket CAs feature a new top that has a pin built into the cap that covers the nozzle. This pin seals the bottle so that if it is tipped over, the bottle will not leak. This makes the Pocket CAs ideal for keeping in your tool or field box, just like our IC-Gel. One disadvantage that the new Pocket CA top has is the bluntness of the nozzle. This makes it more difficult to apply small amounts of the CA, especially in tight places. From the feedback we have received, it appears about 25-30% of users prefer the new Pocket CA top, which means that over 70% prefer our standard top for general bonding purposes. Most users are buying both types. Our original top for the workshop, and the Pocket CA for use out in the field. The 3/4 oz. Pocket CAs are available in BSI's Insta-Cure, Insta-Cure+, Maxi-Cure and Super-Gold+. BSI's new extender tip #304 works on the Pocket CA.
