Default yak

I need to make a confession. I don't own a Yak, I have never owned a Yak and I don't plan Buying a new Yak ARF anytime soon. With all the new Yaks on the market and new ones coming out every month does this mean there is something wrong with me.........[]

A good YAK flies wonderfully, a bad one doesn't. A good Edge/Extra/Cap flies wonderfully, a bad one doesn't. The current fad for YAKs is based on the fact that Quiqui flies one and, when they first came out, they were new and different. There are even modelers out there who like the looks of a YAK.

Yes, actually I do like the loks of most of the ones I've seen but it just seems that there are so many out there and every ad has a Yak arf being advertised, to the point of my being "tired" of them without even owning one.

I'm sorry but the reason there are so many Yak's out "There" is because they are GREAT at what they do and that is flying without adverse yaw or cross coupling.They are just really fine at doing the 3D stuff without much effort on the pilot.Now as far as the looks department I can not defend that,one likes the look or not.

If it helps you, read it backwards and call it a Kay
