Default MAGIC HANDS 118" Yak

Has anyone had one of the Magic Hands 118" yaks from TBM yet? If so how do they fly and do you have any pics/video? I am in the market for a new 40% yak and wanted a TOC 37.5 yak but I don't know when they will be available so I might swing this way if they are decent. Any info would be great thanks!

TBM! Check there, they have a vid too. Looked a little wing rockey. Still looked very nice though.

I saw the video on tbm, but to be honest it sucked. I just find it strange that no one has one of these birds yet..

I have one of the smaller ones (73" with a OS 1.60 in it) It flys well at 11 lbs 5 oz. My wife boutght it when they had the first sale at like 240.00. I haven't heard of anyone putting together a larger one other than a 50cc. The plane is made by FB models and is well built. Not sure on the big boy's construction though. Good luck
