New Somenized Line of Aircraft

[Reza]

Dear All,

We have just received our shipment that contains all of our latest airplanes except for the 150cc Yak-54 and Python.

New Somenized Yak-54, 69": This plane comes in Brio scheme, made for OS 1.20AX/YS 1.10 or similar in weight and power. This plane flies exceptionally well for its size. It has a bigger plane feel to it and can make an awesome electric conversion as well. I will be doing an electric conversion of this plane later. Please check out www.qqaircraft.com for more detailed pictures and videos. For those of you that want to learn or practice 3D without getting to giant scale, this would be an awesome choice for you. Price $369.95 plus shipping.

GenII, Somenized Yak-54 73". The new design includes foam free technology, New color scheme, clear SFG. Plane is lighter than our older 73" and is made for OS 1.60/YS1.40 or 30-40cc gas engine. Price $419.95 plus shipping

GenIII Somenized Yak-54, 102". This plane comes in Brio scheme/120" QS scheme. Foam free technology, Clear SFG (Removable), Ready to run canister tunnel, new design canopy structure.

New Somenized Yak-54, 86" that is based on successful 85" design but comes with foam free technology, removable stabs, ready to run canisters and many improvements to the 85" that makes the assembly much easier and faster in compare to the 85".

All airplanes come with Carbon Fiber Wing Tube or Stab Tube where applicable. Titanium rods, ball links and ...

The new foam free technology makes the plane stronger, more durable and lighter.

All airplanes are in stock now and shipping. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have on here or email me at reza@giantrcsupport.com . I would suggest that you check out our new manual on our new Yak-54, 69" that is posted on our website.

Here are some pictures of our new 69" and G2 73".

Enjoy,

Reza, sweet looking planes. I'm tittering between the QQ 102 and a Comparf 2.6m Extra. the only reason I'd get the Extra, I think, is that everyone and their mother has a QQ or a Yak! They are SWEET flying aircraft, though. I was wondering if, with the 102, you can use 1 servo per surface, say a Hitec 5955, and 1 for rudder, say a 5955 or a Jr 8711. I'd like to keep it as light as possible. Also, how have the 102s been balancing? a bit nose-heavy, or a bit tail-heavy?

Thanks a ton

Izzy

Hi Izzy,

You can use one JR8711 on the rudder. I have changed my 2 JR8611a to one 8711 and love it. As far as Aileron goes, you certainly need two servos per surface. The size of the aileron and vibration and the position of the servos all of that do require two servos per surface. Let me tell you a true story, my friend bought a used plane of a different kind and different company but same size of our 100 Yak (that wasn't a Yak) he flew the plane about a dozen time, then asked me to give her a ride. I flew the plane, and did a high speed low pass, saw the aileron going crazy/flutter from the tip to root. I slowed down and told him he needs to go to two servo set up. He didn't and guess what two weeks later the aileron broke off his plane and total loss. I also noticed huge amount of blow back on his ailerons with one servo, BTW they were 5955 and servos didn't give up, structure from flexing and lots of flutter around the center finally gave up. Plane was designed for two servo per surface as well. I know some people flying all day and claiming no problems but when I flew that plane with one servo and did not like the performance at all but that's just me.

Now as far as balancing goes as long as you use DA100 or same weight similar engine, you will have NO problem balancing this model. Download the manual on our website and take a look at it. The way I built it for the manual was more IMAC style CG, I now have the battery on the rudder tray.

BTW, these two planes are quite different in design. All I can tell you is our 102" is a plane that gives you the best of both world meaning 3D and precision.

Good Luck with you decision and don't worry about weight saving on the 102" as it is very light plane for its class and yet extremely strong and durable, especially with the new foam free fuse.

Regards,
Reza

Any Idea if we will be seeing a 40% Python any time soon?

Hey Izzy I have 1 8711 on mine too and it's more than enough, knife edge loops tight with authority. The Comp-Arf is a good plane, but like Reza says the Yak is the best all around flying plane. Who cares how many people have the Yak, get the Gen III and your scheme will be different. My plane came in at 27lbs. with a power box and batteries that are a little larger than needed, plus cans. Build the plane as per the recommendations and you will be treated with a unlimited fun flying plane. I wish you were located near me so you could see the new scheme in person and fly the plane, I think that would make your decision easier.

Hi Reza,

I am a big fan of your planes.
one thing bothers me:
why dont you use the "ring" system for the cowl - this way it comes ready to install without the hassle of having to "adjust " the cowl on the fuselage.

any thoughts on this?

Thanks
