Great Planes® Performance Series™ Yak-55M 50 cc ARF

  • 13 years ago
The quality and versatility of this large, lightweight Yak-55M ARF prove that Great Planes knows exactly what fliers want in a 50 cc aerobatic/3D model. The design not only accommodates many popular 50 and 55 cc gasoline engines (such as the DLE Engines DLE-55cc used for this video's flights), but also allows easy installation of a standard Pitts muffler, canister or power-boosting tuned pipe. Mounting materials for all three options are supplied. Main assemblies are built-up and MonoKote® film-covered in a bold trim scheme to help follow orientation during aggressive maneuvers. All control surfaces except the rudder come factory-hinged. The cowl and landing gear spats are made of fiberglass; the tailwheel assembly includes strong, lightweight, carbon-fiber components; and a molded replica radial engine adds exciting, scale-like detail.
