Default RE: Lanier Yak

The 26x10N is only with the header and canister @ 6,000 rpm.

I am turning a Bolly wood 24x10 @ 6,000rpm static with a slimline pitts modified to fit.

Pulls an 18# BME YAK-54 around like its nothing. Verticle till you cant see it anymore, how high do you need to go? This is at 5,000 ft elevation.

Spools up fast enough to get the YAK moving verticle from a hover. Alot of people use the term "Rocket", I like to compare it to a good TOC set-up. Not afterburners but it jumps into verticle when you tell it to. This is the kind of power 3-Ders are looking for, very resposive usable power. Not too much, but enough when you want it. In other words I dont wonder if I should have used a bigger motor and I'm not wanting for more power-yet.
