Last weekend I flew a friends 50 cc Pilot R/C Yak, DA 50, std muffler, and Mezjlick 22x8 prop. We tuned the engine nicely so there was no burble. I then flew the whole FAI P09 sequence with the plane and it was a joy to fly! I was really surprised how well it cut the wind and tracked. Upline speed and overall power was really impressive (to me). It was not quite like my 2M PassPort with YS 170CDI, but it was close enough to make it a bunch of fun. it needs a few points of up elevator mix and a little bit of roll mix and that was it.
Thanks,
Jim W.
