I have my comments on the "new Carl Goldberg models. I was browseing their websight and saw the sukhoi there. since I own a CG extra and A CG Ultimate built from kit, one was bought in 1992 the other 1993. well anyway i saw the Sukhoi instruction manual there so i went to open it. THEY want to charge you $4.95 to look at the manual in PDF form[:-]. I said well I will not mess with the "new" version of the Co. pretty soon they will be charging $1 to look at new models and $2 to se specs. GEEZZ. Then if you take a slide over to Dave Patrick models (which is who designed the CG aerobats) You will see quality built and flying planes. you can tell by browsing around his site he cares about his products. My next model will be one of them!!.
Back to the YAK. I also think that QQ cares about the quality of his planes. and just from watching this threadand the other. I would say out of as many planes sold. 3 or 4 Is not by any means a "major bug" in design. Then things are looking a little weird when 2 of them are from the same guy. I know he maybe a pro pilot. but even he after his second one went down a red flag should have gone up. hey maybee something is not right. It will have to start looking like the Funtana wing explosion epedimic before I would say they there is a design flaw. I for myself have an F90 and am using a Y.S. 1.40 and have put it in VERY voilent blenders with no wing problems. (just use metal wing bolts) I am also on 50+ flights with the same HS-425bbs that i had in it since day one. I dont think QQs design is at fault.
