New Somenized (TM) Yak-54, 102" Gen III will be available by Mid June. Plane will have the folowing changes:

1. New 120" QS scheme, meaning just like the new 120" QS scheme.
2. Foam free tech.
3. SFG clear color
4. Plug and run canisters
5. New canopy structure for longer life.
6 A thin foam has been added to the back of the canopy to reduce noise.

Regards,

Is that true?

Thanks

This batch first of the G III 102"ers is the new Brio scheme. I'm not sure if they will do white ones in the future, I'm sure Reza will answer that. Mine will be here this week, your pretty close to me you are more than welcome to check it out anytime, it's a great looking and flying plane.

Lee

Status: offline 		What is the "Brio" scheme, and how is it different than the previous colors?

Are you saying that you have one on order and it will be here for sure this week?

I called today and was told the next batch will be here soon and had to leave my name on a call list.

Status: offline 		Mine arrived on 07/03/07 also. I was told the shipping company would give a call to schedule delivery, but there was no call.
It's a good thing I was home, and it was late evening when it got there. Wonder what would have happened if I wasn't home?
No biggie.

This thing is top shelf in workmanship, and a beautiful plane. Everything was as advertised and straight as an arrow.
I could not have done as nice a job as the plane I received.

One suggestion for packaging for clumsy people like me. I had to unpack it alone as there was no one around to help me.
When I pulled the fuse out of the bag, the canopy fell of and hit the floor
Put a nice sized break in the back of the canopy which I'll have to patch up somehow. No matter what I wind up doing, it will show
and be ugly.

Anyway, after I finish with the 80" OMP Edge profile kit, this baby is next.

Raining here today on the 4th

Status: offline 		Here are a couple pics. All servos and linkage is installed know also. I'm held up right now because I need to get to the hobby shop for some things. I don't want to mount anything until the motor is mounted so I can figure out where to put the power box ect... I will be ready to fly tomorrow.

Status: offline 		Reza, I was doing a visual check when I noticed that the left landing gear metal brace has the tapped holes only partially through the metal, whereas the right brace has the tapped holes all the way through. Is this normal? I guess not. In that case, what can be done to rectify it?

The instruction manual in the box is for the Gen 2 Yak 102". Has there been a packing error?

Thanks
