RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

And finally the baffling... I'm not sure if it's needed. But I thought it couldn't hurt.

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

I know, that is an amazing price. I confirmed it on the website, so I'm pretty sure it's legit. I live just a few miles from Chief and bought mine from them last year. Paid $720.00 and picked it up....

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

I just looked it up on BME's website and it's listed at 4.7, so I assume that is without the mufflers.

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

I have been trying to find where to get the carbon fiber AM gear for the 33%. Since the split with AM no one seems to be able to get them. Do you have a source for that??

Thanks,

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

Unfortunately Chief only got some for the 35%, not the 33% on their last order. I'll call Chief and see if they are able to get some for the 33. I'll let you guys know if I have any luck.

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

I don't know how to get a hold of the AM gear and have been looking myself. So I would be interested too if anyone else knows where they are available.

RE: Aviation Models 33% Yak Build Thread

Mine didn't come with one either. Even though the manual makes mention of a tail wheel bracket, I don't think any of them come with that either.
