I haven't flown any of these Yaks, however, an AM 30% Yak was maidened here in VA last week. It was overweight(IMO) and landed like a baby.


50%

You definitely check out the Aeroworks Yak 54 as well - high quality hardware, and very fast building time. I have the 75cc and it's awesome.

I'm not sure of the exact weight, however the motor(Fox 4.8[79cc]) weighs five pounds bare as opposed to the three pounds of the DA 50R which most folks fly the plane with.

OK guys, thanks for all the help. The final decision is the QQ 73" Yak. I may still buy the EF Yak Electric or the extra 300 electric.

Good plane.
I'm going to fly mine this weekend.
Slapped a Webra 1.20 2 stroke in it.
Plane weighs NOTHING.. should float like a feather.
