Does anybody here have experience with the "Dare Design" Sporthawk?
What's your opinion?

I have one waiting to be built. The design was first published in one of the magazines a number of years ago and is an improved Veco Tomahawk. More wing area with better airfoil and moments. The laser cutting looks very good and the wood is decent. Thats about all I can say at the moment.

Here are my 2 cents:
Top notch kit! Laser cut, simplebuild, excellent wood selection. The kit is perfect for a beginner, sport pilot or someone learning the pattern. Lack of movable flaps starts to show in square maneuvers but the rounds are excellent. On the other hand, no flaps means almost no trimming needed(ie less time wasted).
