Yes, you are right as it (in MY oppion) is to large for a 25% Yak
I am installing the SPE 43 cc in a 29% Giles U/L witha 78 inch span and 1100 sq inch wing..

It will fly but you may have tip stalling at slower speeds... BE very careful...
Why would using a 43cc engine which only weighs a few ounces more than say a 28 cause the model to tip stall, and I'm assuming while accelerating from a takeoff position ..... just curious .

Karol
I own TWO CRRC 26cc and ONE SPE 43cc
I do not have a scale but I do not need one as the 43cc weighs
much more than the 26cc...

It would most lilely tip stall at the WORST times like landing....

ALSO read the post 3 above....
It DID JUST THAT and is in airplane heaven now...[]
