I did a search in the review section here on RCU.

Found that Ultra has a 50 size Yak 54; sells for $140 but they are out of stock according to their website.

The reviews I've read aren't very good on that one either :(
It's funny how the giant scale world is filled with Yaks but below like 78" wingspan Yaks are almost non-existant.

I found an OMP profile yak 54. Thats about all I could find. Give it a couple months, with the boom in yaks right now someone has got to come out with one.

Looks like you can get the CMP/Ultra-RC 50 size on Ebay for pretty cheap.

Funny that the out-of-stock one has it's price reduced. Guess they want to not sell it in greater volume.

It was their winter sale. Guess the price will SPRING up now.

Shakes where did you see a review, or did you get that first hand from someone at the field?

The threads I read on RCU say it's a good flyer if you keep the speed up and don't try aggressive manuevers. Basically what I read is it's a good aerobatic plane but not a 3D plane.

Here's a .40 sized built super light for electric power. Got one myself. They are sold out everywhere though for a few weeks[&o] http://aircraft-world.com/default.asp Retails for $189 ..... Putting a slime pump in it would be a bad idea.

This is the same one carried by Ultra RC, which are all made by China Model Pro.

The HYPERION YAK-54 mentioned above is a good match for Saito 82 for size and weight, except that vibrator will probably shake the airplane apart. I had that motor, and it has the most vibration-per-displacement I've ever witnessed.

Would a small 2 stroke work on this plane. Say a .46 or .50 I really like this plane and it is a 40 sized plane. They say the flying wieght of this plane is 84 oz. with electric stuff. I think you could prolly get close to that with a .46

I'll try to find it - someone had some major problems with it but then again, that could be just one or a couple of people and not the norm.

The CMPro yak is heavy and NOT for 3d BUT... keep the throws small and it's a great scale flying plane. I like mine so much I bought a second one just to have a spare. Put a little extra glass around the LG inside or the fuse will crack on the bottom just behind the gear.
