Default RE: Great Planes 25% Yak 81" 12-lb, seen on Fly3D Magazine

Without the cowl and spinner my CG is at about 6 3/4" back with a Brillelli 46 and push - pull servo's (in the tail). I wish I had known this sooner, now I am going to have to move the rudder servos up and move my throttle servo over and I guess plug up some holes. Using my digital bathroom scale I am around 14 lbs.

This is a little disappointing since the rear rudder servos don't even balance properly with the recommended Fuji engine.

Another problem I found is that the 22x8 Xoar prop doesn't fit in the spinner - though this I can understand.

Thanks BMiracleTX for posting.
