RE: Let's see some videos and pics of your QQ Yaks
Here is a pic after the third flight on the aircraft. The plane flew awesome. There is very slight roll coupling but I'll mix it out after I move the CG back and get a few more flights on the plane.
Hopefully I'll have the graphics for it before next weekend.
My setup:
DA 100 on stock mufflers
Hitec 5945s on all surfaces
dual 2400 LiIon and regs
Flies precision and 3D very well. The plane stops perfectly in both positive and negative snaps. Wonderful flying plane and I can't wait to get it back in the air.

Looks Awesome shakes! How did you like it? BTW, this is by far the best flying field I have seen. You guys are lucky.
Did you like my modified CG?
Thanks,

. JK, I LOVE the plane. As far as a maiden report...here goes.QQ Yak 102" with DA-100, MTW Canisters and PT 27x10 prop.
Smart-fly power expander, equalizers
Fromeco batteries and regulators
Started it up, sounds awesome! Taxied out, throttle on....take off was just gorgeous as it rotated! Wow this thing has some power - had to back off quickly. 2 clicks of down trim was all it needed. Since this was a maiden and the first time I have flown anything in the 100cc range, I just pretty much flew circles. Some vertical climbs, etc. were thrown in. I didn't really try anything else but I can tell it flies just like my 85" just better. The characteristics are the same, just 100% better. Most stable thing I have ever flown - rock solid.
I can't wait until I'm comfortable with it!
Very hot today and this plane is definitely a floater. Verticals were unlimited and the power on the DA-100 was amazing honestly for the first time it has ever been in the air.
I only flew once, the plate holding my fuel tank came lose on the back side so I need to epoxy that back into place. Also, Reza...I had some gasoline drip down from my fuel dot and eat a couple of huge chunks of foam in the wing saddle. Should this be something I need to fix or is it just not anything to worry about?
Video - yea, its boring but its my maiden
[link=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqmjP8DFX44]QQ Yak 102 Maiden[/link]I rendered it low quality so it would upload fast. I'll replace it with a better quality vid when I have time. Oh, the CG is close to the 8.5" and it seems dead on - not nose heavy or tail heavy, very neutral. LOVE IT!
Oh, my landing was quite HOT [:@][:@]. I usually come in a little faster when its as hot as it was today but since I am not used to something this size, it looked like it was moving so slow up until it crossed the threshold of the runway - then it was like "holy cow!" [X(]

Shakes,
Great news! Don't worry about the foam but make sure you lay a layer of alcohol epoxy on it so it doesn't start coming off more.
Video looks great and like you said it sounds really COOL, way better than mine with stock mufflers.
Thanks for sharing,
Reza

Here is a video of my 85" QQ Yak taken today before the maiden of my 102". I hadn't flown in 3 weeks so I was really rusty but you guys are welcome to watch 
I swear this plane does the best flat spins but today I was so off it was sad [&:]

No it didn't but it did in another pic I rather not touch the tail, I have broken my pull-pull cable almost anytime that I touched the tail.

RE: Let's see some videos and pics of your QQ Yaks
Here's a pic of my 85" Yak, re-schemed the wings and stabs just enough to personalize it. Hitech servos and Duralite Batts. Unfortunately I lost this plane at Joe Nall. Somebody turned on their radio in the pits.......on my channel!. It's still in the deep wood of South Carolina [&o] IT was my favorite 3D airplane. Good news is, I built another one just like it and probably will be ready in a couple of weeks . Happy Skies and God Bless!

Hey Randy
Yeah, My computer at work does not want to upload pics. Anyway the pics are posted above. As far as the 102", I've decided to go composite, maybe even 40%. Let me know how your new 35% project goes, will be looking for build thread from you.
