Default RE: YAK 54 TOC1

Hey RC,
what did your AUW end up at? I just finished mine today, had to order a new rudder servo. I was going to use a JR Z9000T I had from my truggy which was good for close to 300 oz torque but it was having jittering issues so I ordered a Hitec 7955TG to replace it. I took her out and got her fired up and started the break in. It took a while to get it started but once it was started after it was shut down within two or three flips with the choke off it would come to life. I got anxious and wanted to get some rpm numbers. I am using a 22 x 8 TBM prop which some people say aren't good but at first I got 6100 without touching the needles and with just a hair on the high needle I got 6700 and then I turned it back to factory to break it in. I figured I better quit while I was ahead.
