Hawk Kit

The Hawk kit uses higher performance brushless motors, speed controllers, and motor wiring. This results in a more manuverable craft with greater lifting capacity. It requires full air frame assembly which allows for more customization options. It uses a MultiWii architecture flight controller which can be configured and customized on PC, Mac, or Linux systems. The MultiWii architecture uses a highly customizable open source software code base. To simplify configuration, SI Drones provides pre configured controller firmware and flight parameters in the online assembly guides. As users advance their skills, they can take advantage of unlimited hardware and software customization options.
