    EF 100cc yak info

    Same here. I just sold mine to get the 104" Extra. I needed a change (and I needed some change lol). The Yak is a great flying plane.

    Extreme Flight Edge 88"

    I had one of these. Great flying bird. If you use the wheel spats strengthen them if you want them to last. I used 4" Kavan air tires on Dubro axles. Similar to your setup but DL50. Also glass the louver plate or it can crack. Maybe install some foam baffling on the louver plate to keep the...

    EF 100cc yak info

    They've probably got 20 containers of these sold and it's not even released yet. Chris Hinson told me that spring would be the release a while back but that was just an estimate.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    You can buy a 4 pack of aluminum cooling vents from valleyview rc for under $14 shipped. Install these on the bottom of the cowling. This will suck out hot air and help with the air flow. It should reduce temps even more. I plan on installing them over the long slots where the muffler stacks go...

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    You can use the same one for both. It might affect the CG a little on the 30%.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    I love J&J tail wheels. Sadly my last one sold with my 110" Yak. More where that came from! I bought one for my 104" Extra. Works of industrial art.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    I noticed the same thing. I placed it on the fuse both ways and picked the one that placed the wheels more forward. I noticed that the gear where the axles go was not angled correctly on one side. This was still an issue all bolted down. I didn't make a big deal out of it since I don't spend a...

    Your pictures look good. The place you have your batteries is very handy. I hope mine end up there. We'll see.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    I meant you. I'm trying to get an idea where to mount my batts. With your setup I would have thought mounting the batts near the front of the gas tank would be better. I'm thinking right near the wing tube for mine. Stock exhaust. I'll temporarily mount the batts for the first time out. Then...

    Got a pic of your fuse to see your rx/batt locations? What exhaust also.

    Want some syrup with that pancake? :welcome: Now seriously did the titanium bracket/wire bend? Hey yakken look at me, I'm still only 15cc.

    Cool idea.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    I put a J&J on mine right out of the box. You can just use the bushing that comes with the stock setup no problem. I did a little mod on mine to get a little more distance between the rudder and the ground. I CA'd two balsa plates together and coated them with CA. Then painted it black. I used a...

    Throttle servo?

    I also like overkill on my throttles. I use the Hitec coreless MG 7985. 172 oz. A long time ago I had a 5625 mini digital fail on me on a giant scale plane and I went overkill ever since. Funny how real experiences will make you a believer.

    Camms that is some tidy insides you got there. Nice wiring. I just ordered all the stuff needed to build my plane. Tower has free shipping and $15 off a $90 order so that was nice.
