Why the Aerotech 50 cc Yak?
I am getting back into RC flying after a few years off. I was about to buy a Carden Cuda, but my flying friends told me I was crazy so I started to research the issue. I want to build a nice 50 cc IMAC plane and am surprised by all the ARF's. The TOC Yak comes highly recommended, but I like the Aerotech. The website sure is informative and John seems to have many fans. He seems like someone who stands behind his product which I admire.
Can someone give me a few facts that will make my decision easier? I still have a hard time believing that an ARF is any good. Also this will be my first plane bigger than 120 sized pattern ship.
Thanks

RE: Why the Aerotech 50 cc Yak?
Here is the link to the first page of a very long build thread on this plane. It is not
all great. I just flew mine and am disappointed - came out heavy and is underpowered
by a DA50 without a pipe. Perhaps your experience will be different.
