I know, but unless you have the paint sitting in your garage, you're gonna have to buy it, right??? That pretty much adds directly to the cost of the plane

Nothing a few $3 cans of Krylon can't fix...

Nothing like a Rattle can painted $1000+ plane!!


No but your right, it will add to the cost, but personally I would buy a white one, so i could paint it... nothing says.." not cookie cutter" than a custom painted Comp arf...
I would love to paint one in a really cool eye popping scheme.
BUT....... not in the 1984 sudeo graffiti "fantasy" scheme style .. hahaha.

Gotta agree there! To be honest, with a little creativity, one could actually do a decent paint job with some Krylon, LOL! I don't know - I haven't met a Compy 2.6 (Yak or Extra) owner that didn't like their planes

I also fly a Colombo Anderson 34% 330L, its the biggest I have own, and for me it does really good 3D & IMAC, its way below 998 but you have to buy harware, wich I got from Aero protech corp.
If I could spend more money I would buy a QQ 102 or any Comp Arf for I have seen....

I second that- I have the CH version that I lightened a bit with a CF gear and wing tube and put a 3W 80 CS on- came out at 24 lbs and the 80 is a perfect fit for it(hovers at 1/4 throttle!)- flys very stable, predictible, presents well and is durable. I have seen most of the others mentioned and they are all good airplanes also, but for the money, IMO the 34%CHP Extra makes sense.

I did, and won several IMAC contests in Advanced with it. Just add 20 bucks worth of vinyl and you miraculously have a multi-colored airplane. We had several guys buy the yellow/red solid color 3.0 in Unlimited and they flew just like a painted one, believe it or not.

I stand corrected...looks nice! But now you are at $1010, LOL!

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

If I were looking for a (B)ARF, I would look at the PP 34%. I'm just not crazy about the scheme, but oh well!! Dress it up as you see fit!!! IT is a TRUE flying airplane, IMAC/3D, etc........ Does it all without hesitation. Light weight as well either with a 80cc 1 lunger, or the 106/110 on mufflers.

Right now cheif aircraft has the Aviation Models 35% Yaks for $695.00. That is a killer deal. To me it is one of the best flying 100cc's ou there! They also have the extra 260 from AM for $895.00, and the Kantana for $675.00. These are complete arf's. You get all the hardware. Wheels, axles, spinner, pull pull, pushrods, and horns. So really to me it's a no brainer! I just ordered two yaks from them this week because I love mine so much!
