I’ve been a pilot for 6 years and have flown nearly every brand out there. The blackhawk has some strong points like the comfortable harness but it has some major weakness’s. The biggest one is that your hand can easily hit the prop if pressed against the cage netting. Not good in my opinion! Even advanced pilots mess up, why bother getting something with such a weak cage setup?
