Hi, having been lucky enough to fly both - though the Yak wasn't mine - I can say you'll be equally impressed with either. Some subtle differences: Yak rolls ever so slightly more axially, Yak has slower downlines. The Yak - from what I can tell from a few flights on a friends - is a slightly more neutral airplane, meaning that ultimately your trimmed final mixes will be a little less than with the 260 - but not by much. That said, I think both are outstanding - there're Cardens - so it really may come down to your personal preference from an asthetics standpoint. If you're a die hard precision freak, there are some slight advantages to the Yak. Good luck, you'll love which ever one you end up with.
