Guys.. I have my props,, The extra weight and the spinner. What is the CG I am looking to obtain for normal flight. I will make sure to CG the plane with the battery in the LE of the wing and then use the battery to otbain my CG for 3D. Is that correct guys. >

6" is spot-on for 3D. That's at the front of the servo holes at the bottom of the wing.

WOWIE MOWIE! Mark has a nice shinny engine! Jeeze mark you got a nice and clean setup there! Glad to see that you're getting this thing done. let me know when you get it done, we'll go fly profiles together. I am leaving for florida in 10 days so i'll see you when i get back, (yes i am going flying while i am down there, we're driving down for the 5th year in a row and will be flying with my friends at the FFAA.)

We gotta chill again some time. Good luck on the build.. Looks like these guys here are steering you in the right direction. Hope all is well with you and the family mark. Happy holidays bro! Take care!

Pattern flying with a profile?

If you want it to track better I would choose 5.75".

Hi guys im looking at getting one of these awesome things. right now i have an evolution 61 and hitec hs82mg servos layin around. Would this combo work?

Dewayne Vaughn · 12-31-2009, 09:29 AM

Read all the threads on this plane before you buy one.
Stab seems weak...
You shouldn't have to reinforce a new airplane before you fly it.......
I'm not slamming the plane, I'm just sayin.....

mstam · 12-31-2009, 09:52 AM

I have mine for sale because I'm moving back to Europe. Hard to ship this plane though so needs to be picked up.

livinma1 · 01-03-2010, 12:06 PM

What else are you selling Martin ?

mstam · 01-03-2010, 12:25 PM

The Chinn Yak, a very nice field box with new battery and power panel for glow, the EF 50cc Extra 300 complete or w/o radio or servos etc, an EF Extra 300 EXP w/ 5 batteries, and I have a Little Banchee and a quickie 500 that need minor repairs. I'm taking one suitcase of small parts and electronics I don't sell with me in the plane.

I'm using Spektrum receivers and Hitec servos.

livinma1 · 01-20-2010, 07:59 AM

The J Chinn is ready to fly. @ 6inch the CG is slightly nose heavy. Is this correct. Throws are all programmed. Just waiting for another warm day. I haven't tuned a ys 4 stroke in a while..
