Here are some pics of the BH Chinn Yak. This thing is a lot better looking in person. Cant wait to see what it looks like in the air.
EF has another winner.

RE: Extreme Flight Jeremy Chinn Yak-55SPs Preview
I just got a call from home that mine has arrived. It is my first profile of this caliber, only other plane that I have like this is a Sig Fazer. I am ripping everything off of a Funtana 50 and putting it on the Chinn Yak. It will be powered by a Saito 82, 14x4w APC, and 30% CP fuel.
Any thing I should look out for on building or first flights? My 3d skills are average and I know that this is premium 3d profile but I couldn't resist the hype and wanted one before they sold out!

Anyone still flying this plane? Got mine today looks like a quality arf with good hardware.
Going to be putting an os 46 La to start, guessing its not going to have the power so will probably end up replacing it with an sc 52.
Going to be on spektrum 2.4 with an AR7000 receiver, thinking of starting a build thread type thing for it anyone interested?

The LA will probably fly it, I think?? Although you may have balance issues. I'm on my second one. Even with th 2 tubes in it, the fuse is a little fragile. I repaired my first one twice then gave up, and bought another. It's a great flying plane.

I have one with Saito 82. Really like it. I fly off grass and found the landing gear to weak and bends easily. Replaced it with Carbon Fiber Landing gear which solved the problem.
Mine came out tail heavy even with the 82. A brass prop nut fixed that.
