I also really like his Python but cant find any of those new.

Default Re: HELP! Looking for a 85cc Yak 54

i have the qq yak 101" with a da 85 on pitts, great flying airplane. a couple of suggestions are that if you buy this plane swap out the blints nuts that hold the canopy on, i swapped mine out with 6/32 screws and blind nuts,the screws that come with it are too fine. One thing to take into consideration also is that this plane is no longer made so parts are unavailable to replace such as cowl, wheelpants etc. Chief has some wings and stuff for it but not alot.

I have had 2 Aeroworks Yaks the .60-.90 and the .90-1.20. On the .60 I had and OS .75ax which made it GROSSLY overpowered and the .90 I have a Evolution 26GX2. I really like Aeroworks planes but dislike the covering schemes. Been thinkin about Extreme Flight???

The Extreme Flight 110" Yak is an Awesome plane.

Robert Vess did a build thread on one with a DA-85 here. http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/f...ild-notes.html
