Little progress tonight. Repaired the damage on the wing socket sheeting, checked the fuselage over inside and out. Looks like they used epoxy during the assembly in China. I hit a few places like where the vast plywood jigsaw puzzel of joints with thin CA, (Just me). All in all, I am very happy with the fuselage. It is very light, very strong in the right places, and very BIG. Mounted the motor and figured out that I need 50mm drop headers, measured from the surface of the exhaust port, to the center of the tuned pipe tunnel. I also laid out all of the gear that I am going to use, just to get a feell of how much room I need, of which there is plenty.

The Rudder servo tray did not come completed, I gues so that the builder can set it up as he pleases. The kit included a plywood tandem servo plate, I will make my own tray and support brace and finish it off nicely. I wish I had more time tonight to get more done, but Xmas time, family time, and work time , kinda collided so escaped into the "Laboratory" and I did what I could to work on the 3D monster. But tomorrow night I plan to get busy. I am going to open up the cannister bays and prep it for the Flat Black "BBQ Grill spray paint job". I also plan to get all of the trays made and equipment mocked up. Maybe even get it up on its legs in the next day or so.

Looks like Chris did an awesome job again.

I'm on the list and can't wait until I have one in my garage. My 87" and 88" will have to make a little room for their big brother.

Looking good! You'll love those ES pipes!

Still can't get the gas tank over the wing tube/CG I see though.

I guess that is an inherint problem with the wing placement.

I guess only choice would be to mount tank in the cannister tunnel but then you couldn't use a can.

I have previous experience with ES pipes on my 88" Yak w/ DA50 and its truly amazing power and very light. That is why I opted to do this on this 100cc project. I feel that the money is worth the extra performance. ES Compiosite pipes w/ Vess 28B prop, should be a real RIPPER!

Yakov, If you already have an 88" EF Yak you would already know that the Gas tank CG issue is really not an issue. If you really wanted to install the tank above the wingtube, you probably could, since the canopy is very large, but I think it is not necessary, especially when there is already provisions for tank mounting built in the model.

The pipes seem to like the smaller prop, so I am running a 27X10 mejzlik. Power is no problem when I am swinging it at 6700 RPM! I can't wait to see your results with the 28B...
