This is my buddies newest creation.
He wrecked his 74" extreme flight yak a few months back. The wings and tail were in good shape. So he built a fuse and attached a dle 20....I got a short flight on it today and it is outstanding!

Nice! Great job with the FrankenYak, looks like it flys great. Love the DLE20, heard it's a monster when it comes to power, equivalent to most 26 size engines.

I've thought about doing that same thing. The EF Yak makes a good candidate cause the root rib is parallel to the center line of the fuse. You could do it with other wings with a wing tube but you might have to make a little wedge to make it mate to the fuselage.
That's really cool! Get some more video after he dials it in.
