Any plans for this? I know you did an 80" Yak in the past but I always wondered why you haven't done an 85-87"?. Too many out there already?

Thanks,
Joe

Actually the Sukhoi started out life as a Yak, it flew great but I thought there are too many out there already. It still seems that way, am I wrong?

Can you tell me what it is that you as a customer are looking for that is not available from another vendor?

I actually like the Yak, I just don't want to have something that is totally redundant in the market. There's Hangar 9 now, plus Extreme-Flight and Aeroworks plus any number of off-brand Yaks, why does the world need another one?

You're right, there are too many already. I thought this might be the reason and it makes total sense.

That's a very good question. I thought for about 5-10 minutes and couldn't come up with anything. I do with I could tune my engine from the transmitter though. But I know this has probably already been done. Just probably isn't too practical with the room needed, extra weight and cost.

Maybe we'd like to have a Wildhare Yak because of your designs, color schemes, service, price etc....????
Just a thought.

I appreciate the thought and support, I really do. But that alone is not enough reason to develop a plane.

Now, if somebody came out and said "all the other Yaks have some serious problem" and then documented that, I'd listen. But there are plenty of other ways I can make my head hurt.

Hey Tom,
How about a Yak in 90-96" wingspan and about 22-25 lbs, not to many of those out there, and you don't have anything in that size range. Great fit for the DA 85 or ZDZ 80 but still small enough for 5-6 servo setup.
