I was asked this question by a fellow Helifreak, I took the measurements of both the Hawk and the Stinger swashplates. What do you folks think?

I don't know how much tolarance these things have, but it could work. My measurements are not "scientific" there could vary a little. I just measured them with my dial calipers.

Both machines are on a 10mm main shaft.

Measurement from Aileron to Aileron (from ball link tip to tip)

Hawk- 67.85mm
Stinger- 65.57mm

Measurement from inside plastic swashplate Aileron to Aileron (inside dimensions

Hawk- 48.50mm
Stinger- 49.07mm

Measurement of metal ring on swashplate (inside metal part)

Hawk- 25.14
Stinger- 26.00

Measurement from plastic part elevator front to back (measured platic outside, no ball)

Hawk- 56.76
Stinger- 55.09

These measurements are very close. but I am not sure whether close would count????
