well, yeah.... It's a little pig..... The thing that gets me about it... and is ultimately my fault.... Ok, I had a funtana X50 that was totally awsome untill I stuffed it. Then I went down to the hobby shop to ask the experts.... Who recommended the CMP Yak 54. Being a fan of the Yak I jumped on it. Should have done my homework, it's a major POS. After the fact, I ended up asking the guy at the hobbie shop some questions and he was shocked and then played it off that it was fiberglass.... and that it was a scale plane not a 3D plane at all. So far I'm really disapointed in this plane. Which really sucks because I was happier than a clam when I first took a look at it. It's a really pretty plane but a total dog. I figure if I can get it to fly half way well, I'll just hang on to it and enjoy it. If I can get it to do a half way decent loop I'll call it good. Other wise I'll sell it to a buddy that, 1 really likes the looks, and 2 only flies around in big circles. HAAHHaAHa. No really, I'll give it to him. I won't sell an ill flying hunk of junk like this to anybody. But if I can fix it! Oh how grand that would be! With really, really lite touch I can fly it around doing snap rolls and hammerheads, but if I can get it to behave! Cuban anyone? It's just the super hypersensitivity to elevator imputs that make me really dislike this plane.Yes, I have plenty of EXPO...but know I have more. 50%. Besides, just the fact that several hundred dollers of my stuff is flying around in the little tank.... I want to make it behave. Which in my honest opinion is not a lack of skill on my end, I haven't stuffed it yet... If it flew fairly decent it would be a great scale plane, not a flying tank.
