The QQ is a ridiculously good deal. The Carden kit is 1299 or something close for that you get the 120" QQ yak...

Personaly, I would wait for the EF 123" Extra 300. EF's quality, Flight performance, and looks are second to none! I have the 58" Extra 300, and I am saving for the 50cc. I can't recomend it enough!
If you want a plane right away though, go with the QQ 120" Yak. With the sale price, you can't beat it! Great plane too!

Just my $0.02
Good luck with whatever you get!

I just ordered a Pilot RC 37.5% Yak. I had an old SD 30% and it flew great.

This plane is a bargain, given the quality of components, Included Carbon Fiber goodies (spinner, landing gear, Wing and Stab Tubes), and overall level of completeness. The Aeroworks quick build has a lot of stuff done for you, but Pilot is raising the Bar.

I got a custom scheme, I will let you know about overall quality once I get it. There have been a lot of good reports so I am looking forward to getting it.

You have to send them an email with what you want and they will send you an invoice and then you send the money by Paypal. They do not have an online system yet for placing orders.

Worked like a champ. Tony has been quick to respond given the large time difference.

I have a QQ 120 and yet it flies great but the Quality is not that great. The Toc is a well constructed plane.

The quality of my 120" was GREAT! Not sure why yours wasn't.... See the pics I posted earlier in the thread, it has been covered excellently (not professionally by any means, but great for an ARF), the paint matches perfectly, and the build was straight and true without any warps or anything.
