OK all you YAK lovers. I have just got off the horn with Andreas and we have a blue light to do a custom paint job FOR FLYINGGIANTS MEMBERS. We have the opportunity to design a scheme that WE!!!! like but it will be subject to a few limitations of course.

Please go to the CUSTOM 3M FG YAK thread so we can start for real on it there and I will work it through with the factory so we get a killer job on this.

I noticed in the instruction manual for the 3.0 yak that it only has 4 cut outs for the vents. Comp-Arf recommends using a baffle. The 3.3 and the 2.6 yak has all 8 vents cut out and does not require a baffle. Any thoughts on the cutting the other 4 out and not having to use a baffle.

Hey there Phillip....From my experience, if you do not use a baffle, your engine will overheat. It's cheap insurance rather than sending your engine in for repairs.

Wayne is correct.
I overheated the motor in my 3.3 on the 2nd flight. ( holes in both pistons )
The baffling is very simple to do. Well worth the couple hours it takes to do it.
Here is how I did my 3.3/

Guys,
I received my Yak 55 3.3mts. form C-Arf, and is awesome, too bad the freight company broke/drop the crate and caused some damage in the front of the fuselage. The plane is incredibly light. I will be running a ZDZ-210 on it with canninster mufflers. I am building 2 jets, so it will take some time for the plane to be ready, but I will shoot you some pictures.

Thanx

Ed Rodriguez
