Re: Yak
REZA, my close friend just finished one and running the old style 3w 150 that was about 8 lbs. He mounted everything upfront and the CG came out perfect. We have about 250 flights on it already because we both fly this plane about 3 times a week. Its a great 3d plane but is also doing very well in the Imac style of flying. It will do some tricks that I have not been able to do with other planes. The wing will hold on forever at slow speed but the control surfaces still respond right away. We found that the 3w 3d prop works best and will haul the plane around great.
If I was going to build a new one and install everything here is what I would use for engine power. I would go with the 3w 157 TS CS 3w 3d prop. I have always wanted to use a 3w 212 4 cyl on this plane but have never got around to it.
