Default RE: Great Planes 41" YAK 54 Elevator Issues

I have been eyeing up that yak too. I love those counter balanced ailerons. Very Cool. I really don't know if I'll buy another GP product. I have an extra 300s Gene Soucy that I really like, but this plane has kind of spoiled their name. Actually it's the customer service that I keep hearing about, not really the plane.

Ok, I believe you. Seriously though, you should put that A30 in a real airframe and have some fun with it. Don't waste it on a tiny plane like this. I have mine in an Extreme Flight extra 300 and it's a real floater. I have a Steven's Aero Edge 540 waiting to go on the building block that it'll be going into next. If you have the time, build one of these. With the A30 the wing loading is insanely low and if you push the Hacker a little you can get up to almost 200 watts a pound. I can't wait.
