My dad built the 40% Yak Aerotech. Fuse went together fast and straight. The rest of the plane builds typical carden type construction with foam balsa sheeting. Most of those planes I have seen come out about 41 pounds because it is a very large airplane. Span is 126 inches. The lines of the plane I think look great. My dad has not finished his yet.. waiting on paint and engine but I have flown another guys and it was a very large pussycat. It floated at very slow speeds and the snaps stopped when I came off the sticks. If you built the plane light with a good powerplant, I think you would be very pleased.
