Guys the delay was the Ultracote, the container didn't show up on time. They are closing the factory for a couple weeks for Chinese New Year also, so that will push things back more. Chris said March but not sure exactly what part of the month. He's doing everything he can for us and as Rennie said, it will be worth the wait. Rennie hope you lock that Yak up real good, you'll be able to find it in New Jersey if they aren't here in March , haha.

Little progress tonight. Repaired the damage on the wing socket sheeting, checked the fuselage over inside and out. Looks like they used epoxy during the assembly in China. I hit a few places like where the vast plywood jigsaw puzzel of joints with thin CA, (Just me). All in all, I am very happy with the fuselage. It is very light, very strong in the right places, and very BIG. Mounted the motor and figured out that I need 50mm drop headers, measured from the surface of the exhaust port, to the center of the tuned pipe tunnel. I also laid out all of the gear that I am going to use, just to get a feell of how much room I need, of which there is plenty.

Jake, I am using a 5" CF 'Extra' Style Spinner from Troy Built Models.

do these spacers for the da-100 come with the kit? if not anyone know where i can get them? next question is in regards to transporting it i have 80" from the front of my bed in the truck to the middle of the space between bed and tailgate where the wheels would sit WILL IT FIT?

I have got to say that I wold not have believed it if I had not seen it first hand!!!
I can't believe how big the 50cc yak is?!!!
then the 110" yak! wow!
The videos and the testimonials speak for themselves.....
The 50cc yak and extra look and fly like a 100cc plane
and the 110 yak looks and flys like a 150cc size!
In fact GP has a extra 150cc size and gues what? It is only a mear (can't believe I am saying that) 110 WS'!!!!

Extreme flight rc ROCKS!!!

First I want to correct an earlier statement. The fuselage is 102.5" long!

From tip of rudder to landing gear plate is 72" long

From tip of rudder to center of wheels is 80" long.

Hope that helps.


Is that fuz length include the spinner?
Thanks
Chris

Rennie in your opinion how do you think this plane would do on a DA 100 with stock mufflers. I dont know that I can swing the cost for tuned pipes for this thing right now. If I do have to use pipes I guess that I will go with the MTW pipes.
Do you know how Chris had his setup at Atlanta? I dont think that he was running pipes was he?

Looks like the Panzl is out the door so I will transplant all of its guts into the Yak. Know if I can just figure out what color to get.

I was hoping to have a 35% to bring to the FX3D but since the Yaks are delayed looks like I might just swing by Chris's shop on the way home and pick mine up if they are in by then.

Looks like it will just be the 88" EF Extra and the Wild Hare Ultimate making it to the FX3D.
