Default 35% Planes ?

Out of the three 35% air frames which would you choose, take into consideration that this plane will just be for fly'n around. QQ 102" Yak, Aeroworks 100cc Extra 260 or Wild Hare 35% Extra 300.

Any of them would work for just flying around. If you eventually want to get into 3D/IMAC, the QQ Yak is the way to go. Best all around airplane period!

Default Re: 35% Planes ?

I'm 52 here and the old thumbs don't work as well as they use to. I'm just looking for a good plane that I can take to the field on a Saturday and have some fun with. I've been back flying for about 2 years now after being out of the hobby for a long time, I've only seen one or two of the QQ planes. My friend has a couple of Wild Hare Extras and I have a couple of the AW QB series Yaks a 50cc and a 75cc, I'm looking to move up to the 100cc class but would like to try something different than the AW, they are excellent fllyers but want something different. I here that QQ customer service is also great.

Wild Hare. If a budget is an issue then you can use the DA 85 on it and have plenty of power.

Take a look at the PAU 36% Edge, too! It will fly great on either the DA-85 or DA-100!!! This plane is starting to create a buzz!!!!

Good luck with your decision!!!

Just bought myself a WH 35% Extra and cant wait to get the gear for it. I have a DA-100 for power but need servos and batteries and such.... Very nice plane.

If your just flyin around I guess the first thing you should do is narrow it down to a specific airframe. Extras and Yaks are much differant looking planes, The Extra is elegant and sexy looking like a shark and Yaks look like an ugly old large mouth bass LOLOL!! Having said that I have to admit that out of those choices the QQ Yak is the best all around plane.
