Seem's like every year or two a new plane comes out that takes over the flying scene. A few years back it was the Cap 232, then the Extra's, then the 540 Edge. Bi-Planes made what seemed like a appearance.

Now the Yak. So what's next. I would like to get ahead of the curve this time. I'm talking about glow, gas and electric. Let's have some feedback on this one.

I don't think the Yak is done yet.

I wish it would be. All the prospctive decent planes come out in some 40 size produced by some low life third rate company.

Might be the "Katana". Seems like everyone's starting to sell one and they are a little different from all the other "cookie cutters" types.

Rcpilet. You might be right. You know what they say.........What go's around, comes around. And the Lazer will still fly with the best of um.

Great submission. I vote for the yellow Cub! Bob

There have been a bunch of Katanas around for a little while.

I think the yak is still the it plane.

Maybe the Sukhoi could be next? There have been a few kits of it out there but not to the extent of the extras, edges, etc.

LonestarMan

Yeah, I agree. Ev'ry body flyin' should have or own(ed) the following planes:
1. yellow Cub ,any flavor
2. Sig Kadet
3. P-51, any flavor

I think the Sukhoi is about to make a long overdue reappearance. The round cowl planes just roll too well to be ignored, and a lot of people are just about Yakked to death.

I'm flyin a large Sukhoi now and have found it to be quite a fine airplane. I would think versions slightly larger and much smaller will follow by about the first of the new year from various manufacturers.

Boy I will go along with that. I think everybody has been Yakked to death.

I decided to do my part and blaze a trail. I went out and bought a Sukhoi. I know its a foamy, but its still a Sukhoi.

Foamy's count in this unscientific survey.

LOL.....if this could really be predicted, we'd sure be on it like white on rice.....

As it is, all of the various Team members report what they see and what people are talking about, and we hope we make the right choices. Sometimes we do, and sometimes we don't. Just like any other manufacturer.....

carwood444

I would agree with your point totally.

I was at the Ford museum last year and really enjoyed their aviation section. I had never seen or heard of the flivver before I saw one there. When I saw it I thought it would make a good RC model. I guess the real one is almost small enough to put a glow engine and standard servos and then head out to fly

The Cub is a good idea. If everyone had a Cub they would be forced to learn how to use the rudder.

I had a guy come out to the field with a 100" Cub that had been flying all the usual plank wing 40 and 60 size aerobats and he was convinced he knew how to fly. u would have laughed your butt off at the first few attempts to take off. Rudder, what rudder? Once it got into the air it was a catastrophe waiting to happen. Bank left, bank right, and little would happen. Rudder, what rudder? I had to land it for him.

Gringo Flyer

My Feedback: (18)

No!!!!! Please no more cubs.......

I promise to be good boy and fly with the left stick if it means I dont have to get one.

BTW I am becoming a hack pattern flyer and have been working hard on using rudder.

Tell this guy about aileron to rubber mixing. That will help him out a little.
