Where are all the 40%'ers?

Looking to buy an new ARF 40% (127"-129" wingspan) Yak 54 and it seems none available anywhere.
Are they not in favor anymore?

Look again..none are 40%. The Edge, Extra, and Sbach are all less than 127".

I have the Pilot RC 40% Yak and I can tell you its a 3D machine. I did get it direct from Tony at Pilot.

Yeah Spats' Yak 54 is HUGE for a 40%. It makes his other 40%'s look small. I haven't heard anybody talk bad about that airplane either. Can't comment on flight characteristics because I haven't flown it.

Check out the Aeroplus Yak 55. Its huge and light.

40% is 40%, not necessary dictated by wingspan.

Very true..but..I'm looking to put in a ZDZ210 into it. Most the big arf I see support/list engines up to 170.
