That's pretty much what I was thinking, too, but I just thought I'd ask. Hoping to have it ready for Joe Nall.

For those of you who can't stand it any longer (I certainly can't). Rumor has it that a photo shoot will occur with this beauty, as early as this weekend. I did see the final build today and this thing is just going to be awesome. Rocco has been working hard on a MTW 75 K Can Drop install. The plate will be part of the former and all you have to do is push in the silicon tubing that holds the can in place. Very nice, clean and no sweat to you should you want that option. Anyways !... If all works out ... weather wise and "model" availability..this photo shoot is going to knock your socks off.  and don't want to miss!Trust me...fg57 Stay tuned. A couple more days of patience! Tease Tease Tease LOL

As promised: Here are some of my shots I took in-between while Rocco was snapping away at his photo shoot. As you can see this 100 cc Yak is just blowing me away, hope it is doing the same for you. From talking with Rocco and pushing him along , it appears the first flights will take place over this weekend (June 10th) plus another photo/video promotional shoot.  I particularly like how the cans are set up with the pre-cut air exit holes in the bottom of the fuse, the production version will have the covering over these holes and it is up to the customer to cut out the covering if you choose to go this route. The can restraint is build in and is part of the fuse former (NO EXTRA WEIGHT). Looks like the crew at Aeroworks has been listening to all the customer input (Especially mine on the can set up  )Currently the Yak has been configured as follows: DA 100 MTW 75K cans HITECH 5945 on all surfaces: 2 per aileron, 1 per elevator, 2 on rudder, 1 on throttle. Hope I get to fly it and I will post some more pics of that event. I am just too exited over this soon to be offered plane from Aeroworks. Better get on that pre-order list,. I AM!!!!

I have been talking to Rocco for over 3.5 years on AW offering a 100 cc Yak. At that time they were not very popular if at all existing in the RC industry! So I can understand your anticipation. I for one can't stand it any longer and basically go over to their shop every other day and prod him along now that AW has come so far. Can't wait to get my hands on the sticks. I know it is going to be exiting for sure.

They don't know it yet, but I will be down there Friday to "re-buy" a 260. I am mysteriously drawn to it!!

Bodywerks, Glad to hear that you have come around (LOL) and make you one of the QB 260 Crew. Keep an eye out on the 260 thread I will be posting my Carbon Fiber conversion there soon. I am sure you can't wait to put it together in a DAY and fly it. Either case trying to keep this discussion thread on topic (100cc Yak). Hope to fly with you soon and the 260 GANG. Now we just need to start the 100CC QB Yak FLYING GAINTS GANG as well. BTW: Started conversations with Rocco about printing some limited edition QB shirts. Not sure how far I will get, but you never know. I'll let Rocco know your coming.

Would you be able to make the plane in the blue color scheme like the 50cc version?
