27% Extra 260 or 89" Yak 54
Hi Guys. Please help me out on this one. I am a little confused.
I have a DL50cc that i wanted to put into a Hangar 9 27% Extra 260, that is until i saw they are releasing the Carden 89" Yak 54. The only gripe i have seen about the Extra 260 is that it is a little on the small side for a 50cc engine. I prefer the looks of the Extra compared to the Yak but i am sure the fly equally aswell. Price on the Yak will probably work out to be +- double that of the Extra when it gets here to South Africa. Reading the Yak''s instruction Manual off the Hangar 9 website it does seem that it comes a little more prefrabricated than the Extra. I really wanted an Aero-Works 50cc Extra 260, but the shipping costs to South Africa are $300, thats almost the same price as the kit itself. Maybe i should bite the bullet and bring in the Aero-Works kit, i really like their Extra 260. Any advice appreciated. Thanks |

Yak. Hands down.
Ugly (to some :P) or not that thing will fly the pants off the 260 any time. The Extra 10" of wing will make a massive difference.

Get the largest plane you can... I bought the H9 260 and after putting a few flights on it I wanted something bigger. The 260 is good but the larger yak will fly better.
