Introducing the StockHawk, the sequel and fierce foe of Stocktimus Prime. Contrary to popular belief Transformers are not toys and it is not to be flown in a casual fashion. Only the best trained pilots are able to handle the tech required for this craft to be flown by kerbal-kind.

This is only the first second (10/11/17) iteration prototype of the craft and much of its flight capability is still being tuned. This craft will be updated as I finalize the design but it’s too awesome not to share as it is already usable for some fun crashes.

There are strict check-lists to be able to fly the StockHawk.
