You guys with the B46 if experamenting props, try a 22x10 from Topflite....it is light and cuts through the wind really nice....and gives just the right throttle response for my EVO45 and should be for the B46 too...

Hey Mike,Awesome backdrop with those mtns.!!

Cya,Frank

Did anybody have probelems with the screws coming loose on the inside of the landing gear block? The ones that are screwd horizontaly into the aluminum L bracket. I just noticed that 3 of 4 came out and the 4th is almost out. How to heck do you get to them? They're screwd from the inside with no room to manuver any tool in there. I need to put new ones before I fly it again.

P.S. I have a used Bisson pitts styler muffler for the OS 160 if the person that asked is still interested.

Yup I had that happen!! You can get to them but its not easy and very frustrating. I also flew with most of them out. No problems..

I flew with them like that for a little while too but my gear loosened up a little bit and I don't trust it anymore. At least if they were screwed from the outside I could've poke some hole in the covering and get them tight again.

I just had mine out after a few months hibernation.I forgot how agile and Bad Ass this thing can be.I had a few close calls,as I got myself into some tricky situations.I think this Yak reacts a bit faster then my brain.
I have all throws and CG at max,maybe I'll tone it down just a touch...Nah..maybe not

Did you use the standars hardware?if not what did you upgrade,i noticed that there is a tiny but of play on the ball link on the control surfaces,with my hardware anyways,its probably not enough to hurt since im not a great #D machine haha, all i lack is plumbing the tank and checking the CG and breaking in the OS 160 but no hurry cause with temps in 20-30s and rain every other day,i have time!
