I just ordered the sd model yak 54 from TBM. The HP version , orange color with checkers.
I was hoping I could hear your thoughts and feelings on this plane. I will be putting my spare ZDZ 80 RV silver head in it.
How does the plane fly? I plan on putting 4 JR ds8411's on the ailerons, 2 jr ds 8711's on the elevator, and 2 8711's on the rudder. Using the JR x9303 2.4GHz and will be using the JR r921 rx.
Should I use a power expander? Do I need lipos or can I use NiMh and NiCd?
This is my 2nd gasser and first I will be assembling myself.
Please, any suggestions, advice, or info is encouraged and welcomed.
I would LOVE to see pics of your 33% sd models yak's guys. Inside and out!
