Title: Re: HobbyKing EPP YAK 55 Maiden Post by: FlyJoe on October 15, 2012, 12:16:13 AM sam, is your HK Yak the same as the techone yak54 1100 ??? here's a link
http://www.techonehobby.com/proinfo.php?kid=1&pid=14 if so please share info like CG, Expo N throws Title: Re: HobbyKing EPP YAK 55 Maiden Post by: samlikespad on October 15, 2012, 01:03:12 AM FlyJoe, this one is 43" WS. CG as per manual is from 110mm to 130mm from LE. I set it at 130mm for 3D but still seems like slightly nose heavy for my taste. Once I fix her up, will try moving the CG further back. I flew her on full throws and didnt use any expo. Might add some on ailerons.
And by the way, the HK version of the Techone Yak 54 is this http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=15302 I have one of those ( http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/hk-epp-yak-54/msg114028/#msg114028 ) Tried with a zippy 1300 and found to be too nose heavy. Will have to order 1000mah and try again. Title: Re: HobbyKing EPP YAK 55 Maiden Post by: samlikespad on October 15, 2012, 02:47:13 AM 2nd, 3rd and the 4th crash flight video :D
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6STKgeWuX4&feature=youtu.be Dumb thump :( I guess... . I guess I applied the wrong Rudder input or was it the heli hovering over me? :giggle: Title: Re: HobbyKing EPP YAK 55 Maiden Post by: FlyJoe on October 15, 2012, 10:02:45 AM ... the HK version of the Techone Yak 54 is this http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=15302 Sam, this is the Yak 54 1100, like your 55, has a WS of 43.3 (1100mm) & FL of 47.2 (1200mm) please check the link on post no: 7. BTW you said you are planning your annual holiday? should hook up when you are in town. Title: Re: HobbyKing EPP YAK 55 Maiden Post by: samlikespad on October 15, 2012, 11:55:24 AM Joe, you were right about the size... sorry I missed it. But this is not the same. The techone is a YAK54 while the HK version is a YAK55. HK do have a copy of the smaller techone yak54 (which I mentioned earlier). And by the way, I will be reaching my beloved country this Thursday morning. Will pm you my mobile number once I get one. Would love to meet you.
