Default Pilot-RC Yak 54

Fills up the Mommy wagon.


First look at wings


As big as Evan!


bottom side of wing


Very well packed!


Stabs, note horns already installed.


Removable rudder, prehinged.


Fuse


Pre installed fuel tank, dot and lines.


Looking at fuse, pull-pull cables installed.


Aft end of pre installed pull-pull cables. This is right out of the box.


Pre cut carbon spinner, with spinner bolt.


This is just a look at the Pilolt-RC Yak as it comes out of the box. The hardware looks great and very usable.

Starting the stabs.

Although servo horns are provided, I used MPI. That also dictated changing the fastening hardare to 4-40.

Real wheels and Axles.
Simple gear installation, every thing pre drilled. Also a look at cannister tunnel.

So will I really be able to include a few photos of Patty's 260 and get one finished that way for a few bucks more ?

For real ?

So does Bob Banka get $27 for yet another Photo Documentation pack of Patty's Apollo Lorans Scheme that I can not keep up with to save my neck ?
