New 100cc and 150cc Yak color schemes

[bpetty620]

the person that built the carden is a good friend of mine in Alabama

he has built many cardens before and he biulds very nice stuff

i love the way his carden flys but i am having better luck will my aw yak

i am leaving for SE regionals today but when i get back i will post some pics of mine

And for the guy that is talking about only running 10 7955's you should go ahead and go

to 13 of them, i had to run heave gauge wire to all four servo's on the elev. due to getting blow back with just two ex. y off at the back,

down side is i am using about 1,000 to 1,200 mah per flight, good thing i have about 9,000mah rx

The new schemes look great. A big improvement for sure. The old scheme would make an onion cry.

Unless you are setting it up for 25-30 degrees of max throw, I can tell you that you're gonna need another rudder servo... And don't you run Spektrum? Do away with the power expander and run a 9100 or 1222 and program the servos since they are Hitecs. Can't wait to see this thing all done - I'm still happy with my big QB 260, still putting together the 100cc 260, and still thinking about the new Ultimate.

Thanks Nick! I finally convinced the wife to let me get one I was only going to run 2 on the rudder. Rocco and Mark both told me for IMAC, that should be fine. I can always throw another one in later if it is an issue. If I recall correctly, Mark is only running two 5955's on his Yak for a total of 10 on the surfaces. I won't be doing much, if any 3D with it. I'll be using my 75cc Extra for that. I was considering a PE on this one since so many people swear by them. I suppose I could go with the 9100 or 1222. Still trying to decide if I want to use A123's. I like the LiMN packs and considering running the servos at 7v. Can't do that with A123's. Open to suggestions though since this is my first 40%.

Can't wait to see your 100cc 260 and your new Ultimate, hint hint. That thing looks bad ass in person! Shoot, I didn't even know you were building another one.

BTW - You would still have to run regs if you used LiXX with the 9100 or 1222, correct?

Thanks. I had to do something to somewhat match the cowl since I needed a new one.

This plane started as the yellow/blue/white version.

Where did you get the DA-170 cowl decal? Looks really nice!

UPS just dropped mine off today, about 30mins ago. I can't wait to get started.

Saweeeet! Looks good Tex!

Thanks Smarks, Iam trying to get this powerbox smoke pump to work on the AR9100 with out another battery

[jdearduff]

Does anyone know of any easy way to lighten the airframe? Other than carbon fiber tubes and gear?

Mark.....you boys did a great job......this plane is by far my favorite ...........it really presents well and its steady as a rock. Got it to balance between 5 - 5 1/4 ....I havent put it on the scales yet......but I know its ever bit of 40lbs. Last time I flew it at our local field it drew a pretty good croud from around the park.and after throwing the sticks around a little bit I was suprised to here people clapping......its a real crowd pleaser.
As soon as I get some good videos and photo's I will send a review to yall.

Glad to hear - I'm hoping to maiden mine in the next couple of week. You had a DA-170 also right? How's the power feeling? Hope to fire mine up soon for the first time and hear the KS cans.
