Title: Suggestions for a Yak 54? Post by: Divyam on March 12, 2011, 11:37:59 AM Well.. One of my summer projects this summer is a plane!
I have LOADS of sim time, so if I fly carefully, I should be able to learn on a yak 54, right? So, I was looking at the 25mm EPP Yak 54 from rcforall: http://rcforall.co.in/product_info.php/products_id/48 The main reason I selected this is because I dont wanna grow out of a trainer too fast.. Also, the cessns is only 3 channel, whereas the yak is 4.. Also, it's BIG.. From what I've heard, bigger is more stable, right? Motor comes with the kit..

Servos: http://rcelectro.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.pbv.v5.tpl&product_id=27&category_id=4&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=4 Not finalized on a battery.. Looking for a 3s 1000-1500 mah 30c.. Not able to find any 30c.. Only 20c ??? Any suggestions? Thanks, Divyam Title: Re: Suggestions for a Yak 54?

Post by: akky on March 12, 2011, 05:11:08 PM learning to fly on a 3D plane that too a flat profile ..... :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:...its a pain.....believe me i have been trying the same i have a already abused two brand new epp planes that they are no longer in flyin condition going to do with 1 more after my exams but no i can fly it well ...but seriously you cant learn proper flying from these flat foamies .....it better you get an easy star or easy cub....its a free suggestion my my side if u want it you can take else your choice....
taking of yak...i personally don't like yak...its better you build an extra Title: Re: Suggestions for a Yak 54? Post by: akky on March 12, 2011, 05:14:33 PM plus as beginner in 3d use a normal 2s 1000mah or 800 mah.....at 3s it donst give that better response for 3D
Title: Re: Suggestions for a Yak 54? Post by: Divyam on March 12, 2011, 05:29:08 PM Thanks for the suggestions, guys.. I have learnt PROPERLY on a sim.. So, hoping I can start with a 3d Foamie.. (So I don't grow out of it too fast) I was hoping to reduce EPA..
Else, I'll go with the Cessna 182 from Techone.. http://cgi.ebay.in/Cessna-182-Mini-Plane-Motor-and-Prop-/150570144292?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item230eae1224 @Augustinev I don't know lotta techniques for building from scratch.. So, I wanted my 1st foamie to come with all hardware included.. Maybe after this, I'll start scratchbuilding.. IF I do go with the Cessna, how are these electronics?

you choice is just correct FOR CASSENA .YAK 54 is a very sensitive plane,I bought one (balsa /ply with ORRA cOVER0 but I will build a foam YAK 54 http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/yak-54-biofoam-electric-30-inch-wingspan/msg52910/#new Let us all know your progress regards peter Title: Re: Suggestions for a Yak 54?

The F-22 is certainly a harder model to learn on.. Title: Re: Suggestions for a Yak 54? Post by: iamahuman on March 13, 2011, 06:06:52 PM Really???
It looked slow.You can upgrade the motors and go faster. |
