Description

The YAK 55m is the plane designed and flown by Gernot Bruckmann. With this design he place 2nd with a beautifully  choreographed routine at  the 2007 E-TOC. The YAK 55m flying characteristics are  so superb, it allows you to  do  anything you can think of...and more.. Knife edge is so predictable that pilots are  doing "knife edge taxi" with the wing and stab tip sliding along the floor! The flight envelop of this model are far superior to any other free style model on the market. With the small axi motor, and average weight servos and rx, the model weighs 4.7 oz without doing anything "extreme"..just a stock build

The kit is masterfully crafted using the latest in laser cutting technology, so all the pieces fit together perfectly. The surfaces are pre- beveled,  the depron is high quality,and all the hardware  to assemble is included in the kit. The graphics are bold and very unique, making it striking on the ground, and easy to see in the air.  During our first session on the model, everything about it was comfortable, even with extreme control throws, so all pilots will benefit from the YAK 55s  easy flight characteristics. A must have for all indoor aerobatic pilots!
