They are custom cut vinyl and included with the large YAK kit. I can do about anything you can dream up and cut it on vinyl for a small fee

WOW!!! I just received my kit from Mike and am blown away at the quality as well as all the goodies that come with this kit. It has a great detailed instruction sheet and cool decals. Cant wait to build it and will post some pics and video when completed. Great job on this one Mike.. No FG member should be with out. You guys better pick one up as the price is awesome!!! Thanks again.

Claes!!! Hello my friend!!! Amazing yak my friend!!! Please tell us more about it! Love your hat!

Mike, thanks for making this announcement here with our members! For those of you who don't know Mike, he's a good friend of The Flyinggiants Crew, and is a local pilot and electric enthusiast to your's truly. Mike is a sponsor of the 2007 Vegas Huckfest and will have his design built and ready for those in attendance. On top of everything else, he has donated these kits to the raffle.

This is definitely exciting stuff!!! Big foam is cool, and he's done it right! Check it out, and thanks again Mike for your ongoing support of all we do here at FG! Question now, can you print on the depron?!?!? I've got some ideas!

All the best!

Max

Meijer= badass!

xtremeRCpilot · 08-23-2007, 02:31 PM

just got finished building the airframe and all I can say is WOW.... This thing is huge!!!! Already mounted the motor and am waiting on the speed control to finish the rest. I may do some type of truss bracing as I want to wring this bird out.... Thanks again Mike.

hey guys( MAX) why dont you start a new post for Claes, as he deserves his own post, instead of invading Mikes

. Awesome looking plane Mr. Meijer.!!!

see ya next year at the ETOC..

I am working on a 'Special Edition' color scheme for Mike and the BAF Yak. Should have something by next week and then Mike can cut some vinyl on his end. I'm dealing with Tiny and my own kit production this week too... busy, busy, busy!

Claes, Let us know where your moving to, I'd like to see more of that monster.

For those interested, I have started a build thread on our BigAss Foamie YAK- You'll see in detail all of the great features of our YAK.

madmax · 08-30-2007, 12:57 AM

YALZA!! Mike, finally got her together today!! Quick shipping dude! Going to go for some maiden action tomorrow. Also got my first hot glue gun. HOT GLUE THE WORLD!!!!!

madmax · 08-30-2007, 12:58 AM

Oh yeah, nevermind that servo on the top of the wing.....

**wizard** · 08-30-2007, 01:23 AM

That item sitting on the other wing didn't have anything to do with the placement of the servo, did it?

gareth.ky · 08-30-2007, 01:32 AM

I got a little Yak kit. I gotta say this is a well thought out foamy. You can hinge all the surfaces on a table before you assemble it, which is key for good hinges. The pegs to align the wings are just genius. You could build one in, literally, 2 hours. Mine is taking longer because I used RCZ-56 glue.

3DBatixkid · 08-30-2007, 03:18 AM

Now Max...remember what happed with the FG foamy last time you had that liquid encouragement with you...something went screwy with the wing and it wasnt a product defect.
