I think Airwild's new 540T color scheme isn't bad, but the EF stuff just seems to look so awesome. Can't wait to get mine together when it gets here. Hopefully, I'll be picking up the servos / spinners / etc... pretty soon to have it ready when it arrives. Might have to get Gremlinx to come up and help throw it together in a day!

Man oh man she looks great!

I like the fact that Chris has taken the time to get the gear just about as scale as anyone can and the "spats" are what Yak's where not "pants"!

Hmm I might just have to order one.

Anyone want to buy my 87", I almost got it finished. Only 12 months to build an ARF............. not bad!

I can't believe there's not much interest on here about this plane. Mine should be here in a few more weeks.

Well this certainly beats the alternative. The thread on RCU became downright nasty with people screaming at each other and throwing around ad hominem attacks. At least it is civil here and we can discuss the plane on its merits.

I think the plane looks great. I hope they will be available to everybody who wants one (they should, as the new factory relationship he has is a good one). The planes are being built in Hyperion's factory, which is why the 74" electric Yak from Hyperion looks so "familiar". Hyperion sells the electric version and EF sells the gas/glow version.

There's always "a plan". Best bet is to not get too excited until he says the container is on US soil, IMO. This goes for all ARF companies, IMO. Personally, I'd wait for a second shipment to arrive before I bought one.

Because we have all ben down that road before. This plane looks like it will be another revolutionary 50cc plane from EF, but the last EF 50cc plane took over 2 years to get here and only saw one container from it. Add that to the simple fact that pretty much no ARF company I have EVER delt with has EVER met a shipping date, and you can understand why I and others might not be too overly excited. Also add that a lot of EF fans have moved up from 50cc planes and don't want to look back, perhaps...

Looks like a really exceptional airplane. Can't wait to hear the feed back on them. I understand they're quite a bit larger then the other Yaks in this size range.

I just tried reading that thread and I promise that will not be allowed to happen here.
