Aero Works YAK 54 75cc Set Up
I know there are several of you out there flying the YAK 54 in the 75cc size from Aero Works ( I just purchased one). I would be very interested in your thoughts on Engine and smoke muffler and Electrical Set-Up. I am a Desert Aircraft fan, but would be interested in their and other engines that work well in this airframe. Would like to fly this one with a smoke system, so if you have a good working system, let me know what smoke pump and muffler you are using.
My normal electrical set up for giants is a Sport Smart Fly with Lithium Ions (Relions), 2 ea 2400's for the receiver and one with regulator for the ignition using the fiber optic cut-off from the Smart Fly board. I use 3 JR heavy duty switches for the Ignition and each battery. I can check volts between flights this way and avoid removing the canopy. Anyone have a better idea(s)?
Ideas and building tips will sure be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
