Default Re: Composite model 100"-120" Choice

We have probably around 130 feet probably more (haven't measured it), but problem is that it's narrow asphalt strip and after landig models keep rolling much further as it is on gras runways. Even with springs or fuel tubing on axles, which we are using. And you do not feel comfortable when you have to land on first feets of the strip.
That guy with 110" YAk is flying much longer and better than me, but he had only few flights with this model, so probably we will see shorter landings in future.
I haven't flown 110" YAK but I have flown Lembeck 90" Extra, if compare it to QQ YAK it is very dificult plane to land in restricted space (from aside 110" Yak didn't look much different on landing) and that scares me, because I'm looking toward model with same wing load.

May I ask weight and setup of your CARF Yaks ?
