Default Extreme Flight RC. Profile Yak.

Had the chance to fly Tim Fulk's Yak over the weekend and immediately knew I needed one.
Talked to Chris Monday and late Tuesday afternoon it shows up here.
Took right at 3 hours to get it RTF. Plane went together with absolutely no issues.

Just flew it this morning and WOW IS THAT COOL!
The power on this thing is scary. To say it rockets out of a hover would be an understatement.
Really fun plane to fly to have in your car ready to go.

Heres whats in mine.

Torque 2814T/820
AirBoss 45A ESC
HS 65MG servos
APC 12x6E

Told you Wayne. It looks much better with the horizontal stab on right side up.

Yes. Very. Even beyond stall speeds its very controllabe.
Ever flown a good profile? This is one minus the mess and hassle with a glo motor.
