RE: Pics for Shorty...( big yak attack )
Thanks guys! on this next vid I do a couple tricks[&:]
As for a spinner, I dont know what Im going to do yet, I kinda like the looks of it without one... but we will see....
Its very different feeling, that is for sure! Anyone out there with a 10X can be buddy boxed on it from me
(gotta prove you can fly first
)

RE: Pics for Shorty...( big yak attack )
Now that you have flown it, I was wondering if yours flys without mixing on knife edge and with virtually no inputs inverted or upright. I have a Shulman version with a RCS 215 radial and that seems to be the result. I am thinking of putting in a 210 ZDZ only cause at 5000 ft the radial is just a bit weak. I am curious if the extra power changes the flight characteristics.

I'm waiting to get fired so I can work on airplanes all day and put together all the Parts I have HAD for several weeks now. Don't worry though - Snowballs chance that will ever happen - I'm not that lucky and shoot myself in the foot by working too much

A radial in this would be awesome for scale!! I have seen one of those radials run, very impressive machine.. But, I can tell I wont need the extra power, the DA150 is plenty.
FYI, I just updated the review page on www.composite-arf-world.com of the yak, pics and the vids are there as well.
Thanks

Hey John,
Bring your Sukhoi to Puyallup in Feb so I can buy it. I figure you don't need it since your YAK is so huge. Very nice planes.

How amazing that is. The "little" Sukhoi looks like a 40 size.
wahooo! I can finally watch your vids at home, John. Windows Media 9 for OSX works perfectly.
Congrats on the plane, by the way.
