Description:
The all new Yak 55 50cc Redwing plane is aerobatic perfection! Based on our 30cc Yak 55, which has become one of our most loved in its class, the 50cc brings it to a new class!


Featuring the things you love about Redwing planes already (CF parts throughout, lightweight but strong build, well thought our design and accessories) but adds CF in the build of the fuselage! This assists in its strength significantly without adding weight.


The Yak 55 is a very axial and clean plane. It allows you to perform precision exceptionally well and also slows down for 3D maneuvers. The 50cc Yak 55 features minimal wing rock and coupling. You will find this plane is one of THE best all-around planes you could choose. This is why even those who don't immediately love the shape of the Yak 55, fall in love with the 50cc Yak 55, because it performs unlike any other plane. The Yak 55 50cc lends itself well to both high energy and slow 3D.


You will find this plane will make you look like a better pilot than you thought you were!


Don't wait! Purchase to reserve one below and be the first to show off this new beast!

Thanks for the post! He's loving it too! He told me personally he couldn't belie how stable it was for a yak 55. He thinks it will be a great plane for someone wanting to do 3d and still feel very "safe". Not super high energy but very fun plane. I'm sure he'll give more of a report when he's had a few weeks with it.
 
Those tumbles were so slow. Almost looked full scale, actually. I've never seen a model actually do a crankshaft at that speed and keep on flipping.
