Since at that time the remains of hatzegopteryx were rather fragmentary they based this reconstruction on Quetzalcoatlus, but if i'm not mistaken in 2014 or 2015 new specimens of Hatzegopteryx were described and from them we now know how the animal looked like.

I think this documentary series used a Quetzalcoatlus model for the Hatzegopteryx, which is a real shame because if they *did* use an accurate model than they could’ve highlighted it’s burly neck and head and how it didn’t use a long beak and longer neck as it’s weapon, but rather an immensely powerful beak to crush and devour anything smaller than it.

Cynopterus brachyotis The Hateg king. It’s so ridiculously larger than any other carnivore on Hateg, it’s not even funny. Hell it’s larger than most of the dinosaurs!
@@cynopterusbrachyotis9919 How many Hateg dinosaurs exceed the 500lb mass estimate for giant azhdarchids? Aside from the dwarf titanosaurs can't come up with any bigger than the giant pterosaur. The next largest carnivore on Hateg is Allodaposuchus and that animal probably only got around half the mass of Hatzegopteryx.
Why is it that I can picture a flock of these ganging up on a single Magyarosaurus and repeatedly pecking it to death with their beaks? Especially considering there hasn’t been any evidence of any large theropods found in the region they found the fossils of these guys. Clearly something had to kill those dwarf sauropods.
From what I've heard (and take this with a grain of salt) is that there might be evidence of such. There are teeth and a femur assigned to elopteryx which may belong to some dwarf abelisaur.
Actually Witton has strongly suggested that Hatzegopteryx was fulfilling the role of a large theropod, especially as its much more robust built than previously thought meant it could kill most Hateg dinosaurs (with the exception of the adult Paludititan and Magyarosaurus).
It's hard to tell. Their wing spans often have similar estimates, although Hatzegopteryx seems to get higher estimates every now and then. However, it is now thought to be more robuts that Quetzalcoatlus and so, whilst it might have a similar wingspan, its body might have been smaller overall, similar to Giganotosaurus and Tyrannosaurus - one is longer and so technically bigger, but the other has greater body mass and so could also be said to be bigger. Also, Quetzalcoatlus is based on very fragmentary remains so its difficult to know for sure. Some don't even think Quetzalcoatlus is even valid - there are no distinguishing features except their size, so it has a dubious holotype.
In terms of wingspan, they appear mostly equal. In terms of height, Quetzalcoatlus was likely taller. In terms of weight, Hatzegopteryx was likely heavier.
1) Quetzalcoatlus was taller than Hatzegopteryx. 2) Hatzegopteryx was more robust and probably heavier than Quetzalcoatlus. 3) The wingspan of Quetzalcoatlus and of Hatzegopteryx was same equal.
hatzegopteryx was the biggest pterosaur ever due to being the heaviest (mass=size) quetzalcoatlus and arambourgiana are the tallest ones, althought quetz was more robust and heavier so also bigger, cryodrakon was just scaled poorly initialy, and is smaller than all of the above
