Re: Bill Hempel 100cc Yak-55M?????
Here are some pics of the 50cc and 100cc. As soon as the rain stops I will get a picture of them side by side. If all goes well, the 50cc will be done this weekend. These are all of the 50cc.

Re: Bill Hempel 100cc Yak-55M?????
Here are some pics of the finished plane. Got a chance to put a flight on this morning and other than needing a better prop and a minor CG adjustment the plane rocks. Cant wait till next weeked when I can get some more time on this thing.
If all gos well, I will start documenting the 100cc and will try to do a better job at documenting the assembly. The planes are so easy to finish, its just a matter of bolting and screwing things on. Cutting the cowl and aligning the motor are the most time consuming thing you will have to do. |

Re: Bill Hempel 100cc Yak-55M?????
This 100cc seems just a bit smaller than some of the other 35% offerings out there. Do you think it may be a good candidate for a DA85 and pipe, or would you end up having to add a bunch of noseweight? I like the length of 92" as compared to say the 110" of the EF Yak 54.

Re: Bill Hempel 100cc Yak-55M?????
I really liked the cowl features and details.
 Most Yak cowls I've seen are either just a round opening up front or a flat plate (with square openings for cooling the cylinders). Awful!!  But check this photo out, it looks like even the grills are functional!  http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/a...ak-55m-009.jpg I'll have to agree with the "it's so ugly it's cool" thing. This is a design that's growing on me as well...  Just for clarification, which Yak 55 model is this one? The 55M or the 55SP? |
