I have last years last run of SD Models 40% Yak, (http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/f...ls-40-yak.html) although it was highly massaged on to be really light, it is a awesome plane. The quality of CRAFTSMANSHIP on these ARF's are the best in our opinion. Now the 2 men behind Pilot RC are from SD models, and these planes seem to be better than their sd's. They are about to ship the NEW 40% yak's, I would look really hard at them. Also the current run of TOC/TT arf's seem to be really nice too, a bud just maidened a 35% 260 last sun. and that plane looks well constructed(structurally speaking). But just about any 40-43% bird would be just as good in the air w/DA170...I love mine. But your gonna fork out the dough for a plane this size, maybe you can get a good deal in the swapshop.

Or you could get a BH 50% edge/260, strip it, make it insanely light and fly it with the 170 on pipes...now that would be badass....lol

flame suit on....
