55" EPP/Plywood/Carbon fiber Hybrid Yak 54 coming from Skywing

That scheme looks like an attempt to marry several of another mfg schemes into one
By a person that doesn't have an artistic eye. Pretty scarey

The plane looks cool but would prefer they tone the scheme down

I don't know....I really like the color scheme...to me the focal point is all the solid orange up around the nose. I'm sure it'll probably be available in 5 other schemes before it's released, like the Slicks and the Edges were.....3 Skywing schemes & 3 Wattaplane schemes...should be something for everyone.

Looks really stable in harriers!

if it flys as good as the slicks ill probably have one.

 

[rcguy1958]

It looked like it had very similar flight characteristics as the edge and slick from what I remember of the original flight videos with the same pilot. It looked like it slowed down really good and hovered nice as well...and of course it rolls like a Yak should

 

[wedoitall]

yea the rolls are what im interested in atm. i need to get my aj yak back up and running too. need a motor and a servo and thats it. found out also you can order from the canada wattaplane site. i think you just have to email them first to see about shipping.

I like the scheme personally. I am really big into aggressive looking schemes. I think it is only fitting for sure aerobatic planes. Is there an expected release date yet or an idea of a price point? I am thinking about one of these over the slick. I have not owned a Yak yet and I think this one would be a great start.

i think an ETA is around mid April , but i havent heard of a price yet...... i like the scheme also. think its kinda fitting for a foam/hybrid of that size.
