Which Yak ?
 
I posted this on rcgroups but figured i would try here tooo

Looking to buy a electric Yak in the 50 inch range.
Which do you think are the best?
QQ, EF, 3d hobby ?
If you have had more than 1 to compare or if you have built one give your oppinion.
I'd also consider a extra in this range.
thanks

RE: Which Yak ?
 
I`ve only had the .40 Yak from Hyperion, none of the ones you mentioned. VS is 54,3", and I use the motorkit they deliver: Hyperion 4020/14 and the 80A ESC.
Have flown for some decades, and I think the Yak is OK. I power it from 4S LiPo and 14x10 APC-E propell. After some tweaking it flies good acro, good verticals but often get a noseover when landing on grass. Since I have got really tired of 3D I prefer acro-ability. But those of my friends who still like 3D use a 5S LiPo and 15x7 - 16x7 propellers. Then the power is enough for hovering. Landinggear were a joke, have put on a glassfibre gear.
Would have tried the EF today instead I think.

My 2C.

RE: Which Yak ?
 
Has anyone built and flown the EF YAK and The QQ YAK ? The little electric ones? If so please comment on pros and cons.
Thanks
