100cc Yaks
I'm considering buying the Extreme Flight 100cc Yak. Any experience out there, good or bad with this company and/or it's planes?
Thanks,
Phil...

They make top quality planes and their customer service is second to none! Not saying that there aren't other fine plane manufacturers out there, but I have yet to be dissapointed by EF, and I have had a number of these planes. Thor.

Great company, great customer service, and great ARF's. I have an EF 74" Yak myself and love it. I live close to their warehouse and there are many guys at our flying field (GMARC.com) who have EF ARF's from the small electrics to the 100cc 110" yak. I have never heard anything bad. I know they do extensive aircraft testing and test production before they release a new airframe.

I'm putting one together right now. Should finish it in one or two days.Very impressive airplane. Great quality and everything fits just right. Big BIG airplane for the size. I should have a weight tomorrow or the next day. Very complete kit. Mine came with axles and wheels also, even though it states in the manual it doesn't. I used all the hardware and fittings Building it completely stock. The questions are always answered quickly on the build threads and even the EF guys chime in on occasion.
Can't say much bad about them.
Thanks
Barry

RE: 100cc Yaks
My plan is to outfit this new 100cc with parts from my Chapman Cap 580. I've narrowed it down to either the EF 100cc Yak or the Aeroworks. The Aeroworks comes prehinged, (which I like) but the EF is larger & has many more extras that AW charges for, Lots of CF parts, pilot, wing bags etc. And to top it off, shipping on the EF is less than 1/2 that of the AW. I'm waiting a bit longer hoping someone has a Christmas sale, AW did last year, EF I'm not so sure about.
