OH YA, I didn't bother with spinner either, don't need the extra weight at tip of plane, I just reverse starter rubber, works just as good as a spinner for starting.

RE: NitroPlanes 69" YAK 54 - anyone built one ?

THAT IS TRUE, but the 120 AX runs in the same RPM range as Saito, so the OS120AX produces power more like a 4 stroke. Someone at our club had a Funtana X100 with Saito 150, it did fly well with...

RE: NitroPlanes 69" YAK 54 - anyone built one ?

the OS has way more power than Saito. Even the Saito 180 is only 2.8 hp and the OS 120AX is 3.1HP and about 20% lighter. Go with OS :D

You'll see the low hovers, and even a tail touch, again the OS120AX had ample power even in 10 + lb plane to hover low with pull out power to spare

RE: NitroPlanes 69" YAK 54 - anyone built one ?

RE: NitroPlanes 69" YAK 54 - anyone built one ?

Rocket Man, does it fly well ? Meaning does it track straight, all surfaces (wing, stab, tail) seem straight (not warped) ? I have a few spare CF wing tubes from some crashed H9's, perhaps one might...
