Default SD MODELS YAK 33% or 35%?

I am thinking of buying this yak for 3D only, Which one do you guys think is going to have the best power to weight ratio and/or fly better for 3D.
33% with a DA-85
35% DA-100

I think a 33% with the 85 would be a hot ride.....

I can tell you this....I've got the 33% with a ZDZ Super 80......24 lbs and a few oz........and the power to weight is amazing. If your mounting inverted.....be sure to reinforce your glass around the cutouts...it will not hold up.

33% with an 85cc would be wicked.

I have the 33% with the 3w 80cs and it could rocket into outer space. Awsome plane. It can rip and still do a 5 mph harrier.

What about the SD-Models 33% 260 with a DA-85, would that be an option for you?

35% with a 3W 106, bigger always flys better, and besides the engine cost the setup is the same.

I would say 33% and 85. Because the 35% is a little on the heavy side.

I have to disagree with ya on the heavy side comment. I'm currenlt flying a 35% SD YAK, DA 100 swing'n a Vess 27B. Weighs 28 lbs on the nose. Has awesome vertical, and flys really light. This plane is a floater when you need it to be, and a wild cat when you corner the sticks. I simply LOVE this plane!
