This is the YUK 54 designed by E. Chassin...it's a total blast to fly and hovers like it's tied to a string. The video below is only 2 minutes but it's cool...we had fun that day. If anyone wants any specs let me know.

Here are some other 30 second videos of the YUK 54 without the music.

That's a Great video!
The plane looks like a Pizza Box Flyer with a profile fuse. You can see what a PBF looks like [link=http://mypage.yhti.net/~dmcdnld/pizzabox.htm]at this site.[/link]

John...it is a PBF with a fuse..sorta kinda. I flew it after work in the parking lot under the lights and did probably 15 tail touches...looked around and had about 30 people watching so I got nervous and touched and stayed....busted the prop all to heck but the round of applause was worth the cost of the prop. Then I spent the next 15 minutes explaining it to thosed that we kind enough to ask questions.

I didnt mean anything bad about it. The plane looks cool !!!
It just made me dizzy trying to watch it when every second or 2 the picture would change to another angle etc.
also I was trying to figure out what the parasail was doing there,.. I was waiting for it to take off.

svo...I was just funnin with ya...it does jump around a bit ...so I stuck the other links up there for normal 30 second videos. That is an Ultr Light Parasail thing...I know it's called something else...he takes off from that field and this thing is huge...carries 2 and is powered by 400,000 Himax 2015/5400 on a Rotex gear box....just kidding. svo...check the torque rolling vid...it's insane how this plane/whatever flys. It's the most multi tasking plane I have ever built. It's so much fun I plan to always have 1 flying.

LOL...yes it does fly level pretty good actually. I had so much fun with this little plane that it's time to cut a new one. It survived a crashing into a high power line, a dead fall from 40-50ft. and more crashes than I can count. It's all bent up, dented up, beat up and worn out but still flew great for me. It has taught me more about working a hover than all my foamies so far...it's just a cool little plane.
Glad you liked the video.

Mike...I had not seen your video until today so I was not aware your plane was out there. As far as it being a copy of that I am also unaware of and it may well be. I did not design the Yak 54 so I can not say if it is a direct copy of the Mini GB or not. As I said to you in rcgroups.com...everything kinda looks like something else and if it does look like your plane then I would be flatterd as I am sure you are. I know the person fairly well that posted the thread of the Yak54 he designed and I doubt his intent was to copy your plane and post it as his own with intent to do any one harm. He posted free plans to a plane he was having fun with and thought other may like to build one. I am sure no harm was ever intended Mike.

Mike...Trust me when I tell you I am not going to kit this or any other plane in an attempt to generate a cash flow with intent to compete with you or anyone else. I am glad that people like you and the other designers are busy coming up with planes that modelers like myself can take to a park and have fun with and as far as I am concerned foamies are the most fun I have had in 30+ years of RC.
The video/thread I posted here was to show people the fun I was having with this little plane but from some of the post's I received in most cases it has done otherwise..hell one guys eye hurt and another said the music had something to do with sex with sheep. I thought I made a pretty cool little short video with some good music that folks would enjoy...go figure.

Boss,
The Hell Raiser is going very well. Almost to well!
I am having a hard time keeping up with the demand. Like eveyone else I have a real job on top of Horse Fly Hobbies.
My next design will be a 3Decathlon! It is still in the design stages.
