Default Re: 25% Great planes Yak 54??

Hey Jared - I've met you out at Buder Park before. You have my old re-built Funtana. Anyway, if you are gonna go 1/4 with gas, I might suggest going 30% with a 50cc?? There are several good 50cc Yaks out there. Also of interest would be the new Wild Hare 50 cc Extra 300. Good price and supposed to be quite a bit lighter than their previous 50 cc Extras. I think you should shoot for 84 to 87 inch wingspan and you'll find the cost is not much more than the 25% Yak with gas. 1/4 scale is a tough size to do good 3D on gas because of wingloading so maybe go a little bigger for not much extra cash....
