Default DAWGHOUSE YAK 55 BUILD

Hello!

I have always been a favorite of the 100cc and larger planes but recently the 50cc bug has bit me hard. Affordability and ease of transortation are what really appeals to me. I have another thread on what cc plane to buy and all the emails and poll results indicate this market is strong.

We have all seen enough Extras, Edges, and YAK 54's to make us see dots. Please do not get me wrong I still like those planes.

We all know who Dawg House RC is and if you have not taken the time to view what they are offering, please do so! These guys have released a YAK 55SP ARF that I think will be the one of the hottest offerings very soon.

I have the blue/red/white and a orange/black/white on the way. One plane will be powered with the TOC 53mm w/ stock muffler, and the other with the ZDZ 50NG w/ JMB cannister.

Please take note of the price they are offering and give them a call for more details! Scott and Tim work very hard at returning e-mails and phone calls with enthusiasm.

www.dawghouserc.net

Photos coming soon...

Regards,

Perry

I might be interested, but the website won't let me look at anything other than the thumbnail pictures, can't see the planes, the engines, nothing. Can't get interested in a plane that all i can see is a small pic. Shame, good looking 55sp

This is one of three planes I'm considering buying this weekend. I'm going bargain basement so the choices are the H9 260 $380 shipped from Chief, the 30% Lanier Extra about $350 shipped from Tower and this one and I go get it. Which won't save but about $20 or $30 bucks on shipping but I'd get the plane Saturday. Oh what to do, what to do !

Go with Dawghouse! I have flown a couple H9 260s and they were a little small for a 50cc. Brought the wingloading up a bit too much. As for Lanier... havent flown this one myself, but I wasnt too impressed with what I saw. The Dawghouse birds look pretty sweet and are the right size for a 50.

I agree with Tank, I had one of the 260s. It was OK but small for a 50cc. I don't have any experience with the Lanier, but I have seen Dawghouse's Yak. I was very impressed with the quality of the airframe and the included hardware. I just bought one of there 68" Suhkois. The quality is great, I'm just waiting on the engine and servos to get it ready to fly.

I appreciate the imput, I don't want to hijack a thread but I haven't bought a new plane in over 10 years, although I have a few kits and one that was built but has not flown (the wings got run over, don't ask ) The Yak from DH is currently the front runner though. If I went with the H9 I would've put my Moki 1.80 in it. It flew my 15lb Midwest Extra pretty good and a 13lb plane would be just the ticket for it. I'll probably use a G-62 in the Yak since I have one, I'm checking out RC Ignitions lightening treatment for it.

Looks like a rode trip Saturday! It will be so completely different to actually LOOK at the plane before buying it.

Get the Dawghouse Yak. I don't have them anymore but Scott sometime back sent me a bunch of pictures of the prototypes and they looked extremely good. Very close to scale and maintained the 55sp wing planform which was not easy to do and keep costs down.

He had a great package deal if you needed everything. Plane, hardware, engine, prop, spinner, and electronics for somewhere around a grand. I don't know if he's still offering the whole deal though.

I didn't know he had finally released the production kits but I'm quite pleased to see them hitting the market. 55's fly great as many are soon to discover.

Yea I know the Web site situation sucks, my designer is going to get his a** kicked in Mauy Thai tonight when we meet up....
We have a video clip supposedly ready to upload but see previous sentence.
Actually this has been somewhat of a pain to get moving, the previous designer/host shut down and closed everybody out. So we started from scratch, at the same time we are trying to get the correct shopping cart and security cert. matched with my financial institution so we can start uploading products and not have to change them. SOOOOOOOOOO got a lot of stress to unload on the bags tonight...
Scott
