Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
Gotta find some time to get this thing done. I have a little incentive right now because @Spats and @Xpress are talking about coming to fly with me on Saturday. :epic: I did get out for a few minutes of garage dink'n yesterday. I started hinging the ailerons. Not wanting to take any more chances on ...

Still haven't made any progress, but I was working on something else fun to assemble:

Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
Another amazing flying session with no guys and no flies. Haha No wind at all, either. Some mosquitos when I was packing up, but I wear an $8 bee keeper's hat and that pretty much takes care of that.

Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
Oh, I wanted to say about that, all the flights, from the first to the last, on the plane when it had the ZDZ-180 on it were perfect. No performance loss or anything. The plane and engine and prop and spinner and every part you can mention were cosmetically and functionally (as far as I could tell) ...

Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
Yes, that's so true. And, is another reason I'm holding off. VERY often a new motor has problems "out the gate." And, over time gets them resolved. This has happened to the best (3W, in my opinion) and MANY times, as well, to DA even. So, yes, I've talked to Randy and Tavis and things are ...

Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
I couldn't agree more. I was going to just buy another one to see if it happened again because the motor was honestly like no other I've ever experienced... as I said, reminded me of the quality and linearity of my old team 3W 150QS motors, but with just startling power. But, I've been slow to buy a...

Re: Extreme Flight 110" Yak54 - GP-123
I know, again I only have my experience of one. I never had a performance issue. What happened was I noticed I had drag on my prop when I would rotate it. So, I sent it in. ZDZ USA said the crank was out 29 thousands. That is clearly a problem. Whether it was pressed and not trued, or whatever, I do...
