I have heard many good things about wildhares service and the qaulity planes for the price but I still think an AM is a better choice. Just my humble opinion.

I guess it's a matter of what you are looking for. The WH Yak is a bit smaller (80") than the AM (85"), but they fly very similar. I have the WH with a Moki 2.10 and it comes in at 13lbs 12oz. My buddy has the AM with a DA50 that came in at 17lbs. 2oz. I can quote this because we weighed them just yesterday at the field before fueling. And that is with almost identical set-ups, Hitec digitals, one battery for the raido and one for the ignition (mine has an on board glow heater) his has the ign. box of course. I got to fly both yesterday and I think his lands a little better, but both feel light on the sticks and are pleasntly over-powered.

After having to fiberglass, triangle stock, use screws, and more glue, to keep my firewall from falling off my AM Yak, I'd say try wildhare. I guess china wood, is too weak for Da-50!

Hello somebody !!! If all else fails read the manual, all firewalls on a gas planes should be pinned and tri-stock used in the corners for proper support. These engines require proper building practices as stated above. I think the AM Yaks are some of the best planes in the world today.

Even though it is my christmas present I took I peek at my yak and the the construction is increadible!!!! I dont think you would be dissapointed with either yak but since I have an am yak I think that it is the best. But it really is an amazing plane so do your self a huge favor and get the am. You will be so much more impressed. Btw I have never had a wildhare so I am not saying anything bad about them. I will admit that wildhare might have better customer support and tom is an awsome guy!!!
