4. CF Tail wheel set is here, will start the basic build soon.

Hi rcpilotacro,

Have you finished building the Yak or the build stalled due to some reason? I am putting together mine and is close to finish.

BTW, great site and forum. I am glad to be here.

Cheers,
Salam

I took you a while to bring that baby on the bench. Wink

I built mine last summer, flew for a while and than someone at my flying field got interested in her. Sold it to the guy who is now a happy owner of it.

It flew very well. I had the following into it.

DLE 55 with Bowman ring upgrade on a stock muffler
 Hitech 7955TG on the controls while Hitec 7950TH on the rudder.
 Hitec 5625MG (high speed digital) on throttle
 SWB 2" servo arms all around
 Smart Fly Sport Plus (power distribution system) with pin/flag failsafe switch
 Smart Fly ignition regulator
 Fromeco Relion (2600mah) batteries (2 on the Smart Fly and one on the ignition)
 High quality extension wires
 Fortitude RC 16oz gas tank and smoke oil tank with Sullivan skywriter smoke pump
 
The kit does not come with main wheels, tail wheel assembly and also does not come with a spinner. So got 4" Sullivan Skylite wheels, a nice quality CF tail wheel assembly and a 4" CF spinner.

I ran a build log for it and had many build photos. Let me know if you are interested and I will be happy to post them here.

Here are some photos when I had it. Also flew it at an airshow.

Thank you. You should be fine with your electronics and the setup you are planning to put in a place. Try to implement a dual battery redundant setup for the rx. A cheap insurance and will give you peace of mind. I go with the Smart Fly mainly for the battery redundant setup and servo matching for my bigger planes with multiple servos on a single surface.

I haven't seen the Art Tech Hobbies distribution board. Do they make one?

I have seen one from Hobby King sold as a Turnigy brand. Must by some kind of a copy of the Smart Fly Sport Plus.

http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__25189__Turnigy_Min_Power_Distributor_UBEC_Yellow_.html

I have used the Powerbox Royal in my 35% Dalton Extra 260 for sometime.... one of my friend here is building a Don Smith B-24 (146") Liberator so I gave that to him since it was an overkill for a 100CC. I went with Smart Fly EQ6. They both work the same thing where the Powerbox has an edge over the Smart Fly boards because the Powerbox also supports dual receiver redundant systems as well where it will hop on between the two receivers. The downside is that it is a little pricey. Smiley

Thank you for your kind note. I am honored to be part of RCIndia. I have been a member here for sometime and love to read all the hobby related stuff happening here. Clubs in the big cities in Pakistan have been organizing country wide funflys and competitions similar to IMAC and Freestyle. How wonderful it would be to have hobbyists from both countries fly together during a funfly or a competition. Smiley

Your Fromeco Wolverine Switch also has the dual battery redundant option so you can use that without bothering of going with any power distribution system and in case of all HV setup and if you really want to keep things plain simple, plug in two rx batteries into your Futaba 6208SB since it is also a HV receiver.
