Aviation Models makes a nice 30% Yak too. A friend has the Goldberg and isn't digging it - seems heavy and has real coupling issues...

I've heard nothing bad about the Extremeflight planes. QQ had some quality issues, but other than that, I've heard nothing but good things. However, this is the best Yak.

My understanding is that QQ has addressed any quality issues and the new run is awesome.

Now that I think of it, I don't think there were any issues with the 73", this plane, I believe, replaces the 72". The quality issues were with the original 102" and that plane is replaced by the 102" Gen II, which is supposed to be a sweet flying plane.

Personally I recomend you the QQ 85". I have one of this with a DA 50 and JR Servos and Reciever and it flies great. I made over 200 flights and it still like new.

It's a very progresive plane and will help everyone who want to fly IMAC and some 3d maneuvers
