i bought the yak 55 online from hobby lobby.It came in good shape and was easy to build.I used mostly electronic parts from I ordered from hobby king , a company out of hong kong.I installed a fc 28-22 brushless outrunnerat 1200 rpm/v with a 3 mm shaft and a 10x4.7 inch prop.this combo produces about 745 grams of trust.Allso used hobbykings hxt 500 5gram 10 sec micro servos.I used a bigger speed controler than was recomended but only weighed17 grams.This was the thunderbird 18 amp brushless speed controler, by castle creations.It comes with the brake set off as default, witch is great for 3-d flying .Allso using hobby kings 1000 mah 3 cell zippy lipo.all my planes use spectrum recievers and transmiter.This plane flys great,but reinforce the elevator with carbon fiber.Its tricky to land without breaking because it has no wheels.You have to harrier land.Very fast.knife edges,waterfalls,flat spins,harriers,hovers,its does it all without much flex.heres vidio link . I just built another one ,i liked the first one so much. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBG8tLYIiu0
I only recently became interested in flying, and have now been doing so for over a year. I remember the first plane I flew was a older model F-27 stryker, with an outdated brushed moter, parzone brand speed controler, transmitter/receiver etc. Despite the aircraft's limitations, it flew great! I eventually decided to purchase the newer F-27C Stryker. The stock electronics work fairly well for the most part. However, beware the stock tranmitter/receiver! My experience with the remote system is sketchy at best. It likes to glitch if given the opportunity, and belive me, for awhile it seemed that my remote system conspired at night devising ways to send my beautiful jet crashing to the ground. Needless to say i've had my fair share of 'misshaps'. I have since discovered a number of empty fields that are glitch free (mostly) and the plane flys great! The stock motor (6-pole brushless direct drive, 1880kv) is plenty powerful, enough for somewhat vertical flight. This power is easily handled by the stock E-flite 25A brushless ESC, so far i've had no issues with the rest of the electronics (besides replacing a servo). All in all, this is an excellent starter plane, and still a challenge for more advanced flyers. Honestly I can wait to add additional aircraft to my collection!
