Default what looks more scale to you?

Just wanted to know from every YAK owner/possible buyer, which of the Yaks available is or looks more scale. There are always differences for making a model airplane fly better. Not taking into account the covering/paint scheme, but the proportions, wing placement, tail size and that sort of thing, when it comes to looking scale..... which one?

Hey, you left off the carden, but I don't know whether to classify it as a Yak or Extra myself. I think that the Composite looks more scal because it's bigger, but the EF is close enough in my opinion to be a tie. The QQ looks better though. I don't own a Yak, but want to get one.

Woops

After reading my post, I realized that I forgot to mention that I like the Yak 55 over the 54. (the EF is a 54 and the Comp Crap that I've seen is a 55)

yours is very close Dick, not just the paint covering, but the wing seems to be almost in the right place! The Somenzini has the wing too far down, not in the middle of the fuse... But looks good

they QQ yak is like an Yakxtra as it's a mix of a yak and extra so no way should it be the most scale...The Comp-arf is the most scale as the companies like Aero-tech, EF, TOC, are all putting full wheel pants which no yaks have to my knowledge.
