Default 50cc Yak Kit Suggestions?

Curious if anyone has suggestions for a good quality 50cc Yak kit? Looking to build a Yak I can power with the Brillelli 46GT. Was planning on a Midwest Cap 232 but after talking to someone, that kit's no longer something I plan to build.

Appreciate any input!

Only one plane for that engine- Extreme Flight RC 74" Yak 54. Great proven flying combo!

Here is one that is promising, I have just been following the thread.

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6247068/tm.htm

16 lb 6 oz with DA-50 and dual NIMH. With your 46 should be able to get in the upper 15 lb range. Will the 46 fly a plane that weighs mid or upper 16's on takeoff?

A trick setup might be the 46 on a CF pipe flying this 87 inch plane. Or you could just trade up to 50cc to be shure.

Pondering the CA Models 27% Extra 300L if I can't find a light Yak kit to build. Brillelli said that the Extreme Flight Yak can come in around 13lbs with this engine and it's got great vertical... though that's an ARF and I'd like to build a kit Yak. The Brillelli 46 is a sweet engine... would like to build a yak or extra to pull with it.
