Default Re: Extreme flight 110" Yak 54 -Building

Some guy loaded up a vid of the Red/white one.....
It doesn't look like a 110" and it looks like the landing gear area is different?

Thats the new 110" for sure. Im one of the lucky few here in the uk who fly with the Extreme team. Freestyle Rc kindly supplied me the first red n white n the first thing i noticed was the black uc. But the 88" is nowere near this size. The 2nd flight was at dusk so i forgive your lack of observation of course the twin Mvvs pipes and twin wing servos n pilot might have help ya suss it,lol

I am running the ES pipes in the 110" and the performance is outstanding, lots of power, and they sound cool.

I am also running just one 8711 on the rudder and love it. Plenty of rudder power for any manuver. I do get the quiver around center on the ground, but this is not that big a deal to me. I really like the way that the JR servos feel. I can tell a difference flying a plane setup on Hitec compared to the JR. They just seem more crisp or locked in, kinda hard to explain. Im not nocking Hitec, they are good servos, just my personel preference.

I'm looking HARD at getting one of these. . after all I just lost my 107" Yak, and have no place to put all the radio equipment or motor.

Any idea what the 3rd color scheme looks like? I love the red/white/blue scheme, but a reverse color, using majority blue with red accents, would be very nice looking, IMHO.

The other 2 schemes are what the 88" comes in--Black/Yellow--- Red/White

Is there anyone that plans too or has servo pockets used throughout there plane
rather than standard way"?
There was a article back a few months in the AMA mag. about them and how to install them
Suppost to really make your plane feal locked in....Major diff. so they say...

I have a DA100 and ES pipes ready to go. Just looking for some good honest feedback. I am planning to use primarily for IMAC with some 3d thrown in.
I think the ES and DA 100 will be good, but prop selection will be critical at high altitude. A Mej 28-10 or 27-10 might do nicely. Keep it nice and light and you will have one awesome machine.
